Summary
Dane Belton carries a 76.0 dynasty score, ranking 96 at DB. Belton’s 44th percentile production grade indicates declining production, and his 50th percentile contract grade suggests his role may be threatened by free agency.
Projection Rationale
Belton’s 44th percentile production grade indicates that his production is declining, and his 50th percentile contract grade suggests that his role may be threatened by free agency. Belton’s contract situation, with an APY of $4,000,000 and no guaranteed remaining, may limit his role security.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Belton’s durability grade at the 100th percentile indicates that he is not prone to injuries, but his age and declining production may pose future risks.
Opportunity Notes
Belton’s snap share percentage trended up in 2025, increasing from 32.0% in Week 3 to 100.0% in Week 18. However, his role may be threatened by free agency.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Steve Wilks coordinates a 4-3 zone defense with a 27.2% blitz rate, which may help Belton’s production as a defensive back.
Trend Assessment
Declining
Belton’s production is declining, as evidenced by his 44th percentile production grade and a decline in his dynasty score from last season.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: DB4-DB5, with consistent playing time and a secure role.
Floor: DB8-DB9, if Belton loses his job or is released due to the Jets’ offseason moves.
