Career arc · VAL by season
6 seasons · peak 0.3 in 2003
VAL (Value Above League) measures each NFL season against that season's league; the dashed line is zero — a season that added nothing above the league's fringe. ● peak · ○ league-best season.
What he added · wins above replacement
0.0 career wins over 6 seasons · 1 win = 13.08 VAL
OAK's 4 wins · no wins above replacement this season
Defence−0.1
VAL 3.0 measures each part of a NFL player's game in his sport's own currency against what that season's fringe players produced, converted to team wins with rates fitted from every team-season in the encyclopedia. Team wins are the club's actual regular-season wins; a traded season, or one whose club record is missing, shows no share.
Peak-aligned view: center line is each player's best Tackles season; left/right show build-up, staying power, and decline. Comparison set uses same-position, overlapping-era comps when available.
