Summary
Shane Buechele carries a 46.0 dynasty score, ranking 90 at quarterback.
Buechele’s efficiency has been stable, but his production has declined, as evidenced by a 29th percentile Verdict production grade.
Projection Rationale
Buechele’s 7/14 (50.0%) passing line indicates a low floor, and his 29th percentile Verdict production grade suggests declining production. Furthermore, his modest contract provides some role security, with a $1,150,000 annual salary and no guaranteed remaining.
Buechele’s role security is also bolstered by his relatively modest contract compared to other quarterbacks in the league.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025.
Buechele’s 28-year-old age and 75th percentile Verdict durability grade suggest a moderate injury risk profile.
Opportunity Notes
Buechele’s snap share has remained stable at 45.0% in 2025.
With no clear competition for the role, Buechele’s snap share appears secure, and he is likely to continue seeing a significant number of snaps in the coming season.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Pete Carmichael coordinates a west coast offense with a 42.4% run rate and 78.0% shotgun rate.
The scheme’s moderate shotgun rate and run rate could help Buechele’s ceiling, but his 29th percentile Verdict production grade suggests a low floor.
