Summary

Riley Wilson carries a 5.0 dynasty score, ranking 696 at LB. The most important fact from the 2025 season is Wilson’s underwhelming production, and his timeline is uncertain due to being a rookie. As a result, his long-term prospects are a subject of debate among dynasty owners.

Projection Rationale

Wilson’s 2025 stat line of 2 solo tackles and 1 pressure per game indicates a low floor for his production. His Verdict grade at the 15th percentile explains the gap between his usage and production. Furthermore, Wilson’s 1-year contract with a $1.1 million APY means his role security is uncertain. Moreover, his recent performance does not provide a clear indication of his future production. As the 2025 season comes to a close, it is clear that Wilson’s development is far from complete.

Injury Risk

No injury entries in 2025.

Opportunity Notes

There is competition for the LB role from Darron McCullers, who may challenge Wilson for playing time in the future.

Scheme Fit Analysis

The scheme’s man-heavy blitz-heavy multiple defense provides opportunities for Wilson to showcase his pass-rushing skills. This aspect of the scheme could be beneficial for Wilson’s development.

Trend Assessment

Stable Wilson’s production numbers held steady, but his role share in the defense is uncertain. Consequently, his overall performance is difficult to assess.

Ceiling / Floor

Ceiling: LB2-LB3, if Wilson becomes a starter and increases his snap share significantly. Floor: LB5-LB6, if Wilson loses his job to Darron McCullers and his snap share drops. Reference trade value (122) as market context.
