Quick answer

Buy low

Skinner had 4 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB242 through 4 games. Current rank is DB242 through 4 games — DB270 was the last finished season. The 2026 projection is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
