Scouting report

Summary

Keith Cooper carries a 37.0 dynasty score, ranking 553 at DL. In the 2025 season, Cooper’s 1.5 sacks indicate a developing pass-rush skillset, but his age and contract situation suggest he may be on a timeline to reach his ceiling by 2028.

Projection Rationale

Cooper’s 1.5 sacks in 2025 indicate a developing pass-rush skillset, but his Verdict production grade at the 0th percentile and efficiency grade at the 50th percentile suggest he needs to improve his efficiency to reach his ceiling. Cooper’s contract situation, with 1 year remaining and a $967,500 APY, may not provide enough role security for him to reach his ceiling.

Injury Risk

No injury entries in 2025. Keith Cooper is at low risk due to his youth and Verdict durability grade at the 75th percentile.

Opportunity Notes

Cooper’s defensive snap percentage of 2.0% in 2025 indicates limited opportunity, which is stable compared to his 2024 season. His role is not secure due to the presence of other defensive linemen on the Dolphins’ roster.

Scheme Fit Analysis

Sean Duggan coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 21.0% blitz rate, which may help Cooper’s pass-rush production but also creates uncertainty about his role and opportunity.

Trend Assessment

Declining. Cooper’s production has not kept pace with his age trajectory, and his efficiency grade at the 50th percentile does not match his age trajectory grade at the 92nd percentile.

Ceiling / Floor

Ceiling: DL2-DL3, requires significant efficiency improvement and an increased role. Floor: DL6-DL7, if his role decreases or he struggles to adapt to the 4-3 scheme.
