Summary
Greg Rousseau carries a 85.0 dynasty score, ranking 39 at DL. The 26-year-old defender recorded 7 sacks in 16 games in 2025, and with a 100th percentile age trajectory, he’s expected to remain a key contributor in BUF’s 4-3 defense.
Projection Rationale
Rousseau’s 7 sacks in 2025 indicate a continued high level of production. His durability grade at the 94th percentile suggests he’s likely to maintain a high snap share. However, his contract situation, with 4 years remaining at 4.5M APY, may lead to some role instability.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. At 26 years old, Rousseau has a high durability grade, indicating a low risk of injury.
Opportunity Notes
The 4-3 defense in BUF likely helps his production.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Jim Leonhard coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 15.7% blitz rate. Rousseau benefits from this scheme type, as he excels as a pass rusher in a 4-3 setup.
Trend Assessment
Stable. Rousseau’s production remains steady, with a stable efficiency grade at the 50th percentile and a consistent usage grade at the 73rd percentile.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: DL1-DL2. Rousseau must continue to excel as a pass rusher and maintain a high snap share to reach this ceiling. Floor: DL5. If Rousseau loses his starting job or suffers an injury, his production will decline.
Comparable Player
Greg Townsend, 1990-2002.
