Depth/upside bet — DL role isn't locked starter volume yet.

DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer

Buy

Briggs had 4 solo tackles, 2 sacks in 2026, ranking DL31 through 4 games. Through 4 games he sits DL31, up from DL43 — a climb, not a final rank. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
