Who’s high on him, who’s low
Each pundit’s standing lean on Justin Jefferson, measured against every other pundit who made a comparable call — same kind of claim, same season. +100 would mean the most bullish voice in every room; −100 the most bearish. At least two articles per pundit before a lean is shown, and the accuracy is how that pundit’s settled calls about him have graded out. A lean is a fact about the pundit, never a judgment of the player.
