Kayvon Thibodeaux is a career quality starter — a linebacker whose body of work places Thibodeaux in the top half of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Thibodeaux's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A linebacker with a above-average career — the kind of consistent contributor every roster needs. Solid availability (excellent availability over their career) added to their value.
Worth 17 points of value above a freely-available replacement linebacker — top 71% of all 4,649 ranked at the position. 2 of 4 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +8.5 on average.See board →
