Player quality
Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

Quick answer
WatchMolden had 13 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB164 through 5 games. From DB155 to DB164 through 5 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
