Quick answer
BuyBrown had 17 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB44 through 5 games. The running rank is DB44 through 5 games, from DB73. Don't treat that like a season finish. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
