Ladd McConkey enters the 2025 NFL season with a robust 71.38% slot rate, ranking him WR4. His 40.62% contested catch rate at WR8 highlights his reliability, while his projected 95.73 receptions (WR9) and 1201.10 receiving yards (WR10) underscore his efficiency. Despite a run-heavy scheme under Chargers' OC Greg Roman, who traditionally limits pass attempts, McConkey's role could expand given the team's shift to a pass-heavy approach late in 2024. His 2.61 yards per route run (WR9) and 32.49% team yardage share (WR8) further affirm his pivotal role. However, his 4.03% drop rate (WR17) and 5.29 yards after catch per reception (WR17) might limit his ceiling without increased targets.
