Larry Tripplett is a career quality starter — a pass rusher whose body of work places Tripplett in the top half of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Tripplett's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A edge rusher with a above-average career — the kind of consistent contributor every roster needs. Solid availability (exceptional availability — almost never missed time) added to their value.
Worth 32 points of value above a freely-available replacement interior lineman — top 57% of all 4,649 ranked at the position. 4 of 6 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +8 on average.See board →
