Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.
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
BuyBain had 1 solo tackles in 2026, ranking LB237 through 2 games. Age 22 leaves room to grow — if opportunity sticks. Into 2026, the projection still expects starter production. Age is on his side — a reasonable buy if the LB role keeps opening up.
