We hold a single season for Engels, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17. At 31 Engels is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.4 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Engels missed 5 games through injury (achilles heel problems) out of roughly 40 this season. The 0 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 0% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 17.1 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
