Summary
Benson Mayowa carries a 2.0 dynasty score, ranking 1119 at DL. At 30 years old with 1 year remaining on his contract, Mayowa’s future is uncertain. His position on the team is secure, but his production has been declining.
Projection Rationale
Mayowa’s $3,810,000 APY and 1 year remaining on his contract provide role security, allowing him to focus on his performance. Additionally, the team’s defensive coordinator, Aden Durde, employs a multiple scheme that benefits Mayowa.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025.
Opportunity Notes
Mayowa’s defensive snap share decreased from 53.0% in 2024 to 46.4% in 2025. His role is secure with Aden Durde as defensive coordinator, but he needs to adapt to the reduced playing time and maintain his pass-rushing ability.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Aden Durde coordinates a multiple scheme with a 21.7% blitz rate. Mayowa benefits from the emphasis on pass rush, particularly in situations where the defense is in a nickel formation.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Mayowa’s production declined with fewer sacks and pressures in 2025 compared to the previous season. His performance has been impacted by the decreased defensive snap share.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: DL3-DL4. Mayowa must maintain his pass-rushing ability and play alongside a strong Seattle pass rush. Floor: DL6-DL7. Mayowa’s Verdict grade of 39, indicating a moderate injury risk, contributes to a lower floor.
