Summary

Projection Rationale

Scheme Fit Analysis

Sean Duggan coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 21.0% blitz rate. Autry’s role in the Texans’ scheme is limited by the high blitz rate, which may affect his overall production.

Trend Assessment

Declining Autry’s production is declining, reflected in a 52nd percentile Verdict production grade and limited snap share (27.3% in 2025), indicating a decrease in his overall effectiveness.

Ceiling / Floor

Ceiling: DL3-DL4; must maintain snap share and efficiency to reach this tier. Floor: DL6; Autry’s trade value (2,187) reflects his moderate market value, which may fluctuate based on his performance.
