Summary
Demario Davis carries a 87.0 dynasty score, ranking 68 at LB. At age 37, Davis’ 2025 season stats indicate a decline in production, with a 64 solo tkl average and 6 TFL.
Projection Rationale
Davis’ 64 solo tkl average and 6 TFL in 2025 indicate a decline in production. His Verdict production grade at the 84th percentile is lower than his usage grade at the 86th percentile, suggesting inefficiency. With one year remaining on his contract and an APY of $11,000,000, Davis’ role security is uncertain.
Injury Risk
Davis has a questionable injury status, with a limited participation in practice in Week 18 of 2025. At 37 years old, he is considered high-risk due to his Verdict durability grade at the 98th percentile.
Opportunity Notes
Davis’ snap percentage trended down in 2025, from 100.0% in Week 4 to 89.0% in Week 16. With a new defensive coordinator in Steve Wilks, Davis’ role may be uncertain.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Steve Wilks coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 27.2% blitz rate. This scheme may help Davis’ production by providing more opportunities for tackles, but it also limits his ceiling due to the high blitz rate.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Davis’ 2025 season stats show a decrease in production, and his age (37) is a contributing factor.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: LB2-LB4. For Davis to reach this ceiling, he must regain his 2024 form and increase his production. Floor: LB5-LB7. Davis’ trade value of 3,959 and Verdict age trajectory grade at the 60th percentile indicate a lower floor.
Comparable Player
Lawrence Taylor, 1978-1993.
