Young LB with proof and a long runway.
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.

Player quality
Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.
Combine ×1.01
Athletic composite 6.6/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).
Org environment ×1.02
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
BuyPearce had 17 solo tackles, 10.5 sacks in 2025, finishing LB74. Age 23 leaves room to grow — if opportunity sticks. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. Age is on his side — a reasonable buy if the LB role keeps opening up.
