Summary
Chandler Rivers carries a 63.0 dynasty score, ranking 285 at DB. Rivers, 22, is entering his first year with a 3-year contract worth $1,215,878 APY.
Projection Rationale
Rivers’ 2025 stat line of 2.0 interceptions and 4.5 passes defended per game indicates a decrease in production. His efficiency grade (52nd percentile) and usage grade (38th percentile) also declined. Rivers has 3 years remaining on his contract, providing some stability in his role.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Rivers’ durability grade (38th percentile) and young age (22) suggest a low risk of injury.
Opportunity Notes
Rivers had a 62.1% defensive snap share in 2025, trending down from last year. His role is secure, but competition may arise in the future.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Anthony Weaver coordinates a 3-4 defense with a 21.9% blitz rate and a man-heavy coverage scheme. This scheme type may limit Rivers’ ceiling due to reduced opportunities in a zone-blitz defense.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Rivers’ production grade (47th percentile) and efficiency grade (52nd percentile) both declined from last year.
Ceiling / Floor
Rivers’ ceiling is DB3-DB5, requiring an increase in interceptions and passes defended. His floor is DB8-DB10, referencing his trade value (2,079) as market context.
