Young LB with runway — the score still pays for the years ahead.

DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer

Hold

Knight had 5 solo tackles in 2026, finishing LB27. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
