Luke Willson is a career quality starter — a tight end whose body of work places Willson in the top half of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Willson's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A tight end 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 25 points of value above a freely-available replacement tight end — top 63% of all 4,649 ranked at the position. 4 of 7 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +6.3 on average.See board →
