Summary
Chop Robinson enters Year 3 as a 23-year-old defensive lineman with the Miami Dolphins, carrying a Dynasty Score of 25.0 and a trade value of 613. He logged 62.0% of snaps in Week 15 and 55.0% in Weeks 11 and 14, suggesting an ascending trend. His 4 sacks and 10 solo tackles in 15 games demonstrate a role-secure floor.
Projection Rationale
Robinson’s 4 sacks and 10 solo tackles in 15 games demonstrate a role-secure floor. With a 38.4% average defense snap percentage in 2025, he has a clear opportunity to increase his usage. The Dolphins’ shanahan_tree system, adapted for speed by Mike McDaniel, should continue to prioritize outside zone and quick WR screens, which could lead to more pressure opportunities.
Injury Risk
Robinson has shown durability, practicing full participation in Weeks 15 and 11, and limited participation in Week 3. However, he was out in Week 10 and questionable in Week 18. As a 23-year-old defensive lineman, he has a relatively low injury risk.
Opportunity Notes

Scheme Fit Analysis

Trend Assessment
Rising
Robinson’s snap percentage trend and ascending Dynasty Score indicate a rising profile. His 62.0% snap mark in Week 15 and 55.0% in Weeks 11 and 14 represent a clear increase from his early-season usage.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling clears his 2025 finish if sacks advance past 4 and solo tackles expand beyond 10 — the combination pays heavily in custom scoring. Floor tracks near 2025’s finish given his role-secure usage and ascending trend. A mid-season injury is the only realistic path to meaningful regression below that line.
Comparable Player
His pass-rush ability draws comparisons to Jonathan Allen from 2022 Washington — similar 4-sack finish, similar role-secure snap share, similar ascending trend.
