Proven LB in his prime — production and runway both hold.

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.

  • Durability ×0.98

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Org environment ×1.01

    Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.

Quick answer

Buy

Werner had 3 solo tackles in 2026, finishing LB42. The last two seasons moved from LB55 to LB42 — that's the dynasty read. Played a short 2026 (1 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.
