Summary
Justin Strnad carries a 86.0 dynasty score, ranking 78 at LB.
He has 2 years remaining on his contract and a $6 million APY.
Projection Rationale
Justin Strnad’s 2025 performance, including 4.5 sacks, suggests a moderate production trajectory heading into 2026. His Verdict grade indicates he is at the 48th percentile in production and 70th percentile in efficiency. With two years remaining on his contract, Strnad’s role security is somewhat stable. However, his situation is not without its challenges, as his age (29) increases the risk of injury.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Justin Strnad’s durability is at the 98th percentile, but his age (29) increases injury risk.
Opportunity Notes
Justin Strnad’s defensive snap share decreased from 67.0% to 3.0% over the course of the 2025 season, indicating limited role security. However, his contract situation provides some stability, which may allow him to maintain his current level of production.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Sean Joseph coordinates a 3-4 zone-blitz defense with 31.9% blitz rate. This scheme type does not directly limit Strnad’s production, as he has shown to be effective in rush-heavy and zone-heavy schemes.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: LB3-LB5 if he maintains a significant role and continues to produce 4+ sacks per season. Floor: LB6-LB8 if he loses his role or sees a significant decrease in snaps.
