Summary
Dashaun Mallory carries a 37.0 dynasty score, ranking 564 at DL. Mallory’s 2025 production will be impacted by his 25-year-old age and 2-year remaining contract.
Projection Rationale
Mallory’s 15 games played and 0 sacks in 2024 indicate his production trajectory may be impacted by his age and role.

Mallory’s contract situation, with 2 years remaining and no guaranteed money, does not provide role security.
Injury Risk

Mallory played 73.0% of snaps in 2024, with a stable trend. His role is not secure, as he faces competition from other defensive linemen.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Sean Duggan coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 21.0% blitz rate. Mallory’s 0 sacks in 2024 may be impacted by the scheme’s reliance on blitzing, which may limit his production.
