Quick answer

Buy

Briggs had 18 solo tackles, 4 sacks in 2025, finishing DL43. The last two seasons moved from DL156 to DL43 — that's the dynasty read. Played a short 2024 (6 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
