Target maps shows where a receiver's targets land on the field, next to the player's line for today. One receiver's map is always on screen. Pick another and the map and line change in place.
Read the sheet

The map
The map splits the field into zones by depth, with the count and share of the receiver's targets in each. Only the Behind and 20+ zones are coloured, against the rest of the position: those two repeat from season to season. The 0–9 and 10–19 zones stay plain, and so does which side of the field. The head of the map prints the sample, such as "36 targets in 3 games", so you can see how much it rests on.
Behind and 20+ are only ranked once the receiver has enough targets there: 15 behind the line, or 25 at 20+. Until then they print plain and say so.
Filters
- Lines: only receivers With a line today (the default), or Everyone.
- Map: This season, or One game.
- Team · As of: one team, or the research as it stood before an earlier week. A past week has no lines or prices.
How it works explains how the map is built and which weeks it covers.
The leaderboards
The ⋯ menu in the sheet's bar opens the Receivers leaderboard and the QBs leaderboard.
Read it carefully
- A few games is a small sample. Check the count in the map's head.
- Where a receiver is targeted is not how often. Check the share as well as the zones.
- A deep role and a yards line are related, not the same. Check the line and price before you bet.

Troubleshooting
- No receivers listed: with With a line on, only players with a posted receiving line show. Switch Lines to Everyone.
- A map looks thin: the receiver has few targets so far. Check the sample in the map's head.
