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

Buy

Wheat had 7 solo tackles, 1.5 sacks in 2025, finishing LB195. Coming off a real climb — LB204 to LB195 tells the story better than age. Played a short 2025 (9 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.
