Elite receiver skill sustains 73%+ catchable target rate across three seasons

Nakua is identified as an unfavorable regression candidate on the surface, but this should not be interpreted as negative. He has maintained at least a 73% catchable target rate in each of his last three seasons (per Fantasy Pros), making him one of the few players who consistently makes uncatchable balls catchable. He receives a high rate of targets near the line of scrimmage but also a high rate of downfield targets, suggesting his efficiency is driven by elite receiver skill rather than scheme, positioning him to sustain his production.
