Summary
Javon Hargrave carries a 75.0 dynasty score, ranking 158 at DL. The 33-year-old defensive lineman accumulated 18 solo tackles, 4 tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks in 16 games in 2025. He has one year remaining on his contract.
Projection Rationale
Hargrave’s 3.5 sacks in 16 games in 2025 indicate a stable production trajectory. His Verdict efficiency grade at the 76th percentile suggests a higher ceiling than his 50th percentile production grade. He has one year remaining on his contract with a $11.5 million APY.
Injury Risk
Hargrave has a history of limited participation in practice, including in 2025. He has a Verdict durability grade at the 69th percentile, and his age (33) increases his injury risk profile.
Opportunity Notes
Hargrave’s snap share trended stable at 50.0% in 2025. His defensive role is secure with Jonathan Gannon’s 4-3 zone-heavy scheme in place.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Jonathan Gannon coordinates a 4-3 zone-heavy defense with a 23.9% blitz rate. The scheme should help Hargrave’s sack production.
Trend Assessment
Declining. The DL’s snap share trended stable at 50.0% in 2025, but his injury history and aging trajectory suggest a decline.
Ceiling / Floor
Hargrave’s ceiling is a DL1-DL2 finish range, requiring 6-7 sacks per season. His floor is a DL4-DL5 finish range if he loses playing time due to injury or age.
