STM Take

2022 tier 4 (#32) Vikings peak to tier 8 (#70) in 2025 with the Jets confirms the structural late-career decline. The Stanford Pac-12 3rd-round origin plus eight years of NFL survival give him real journeyman veteran value. The 2026 question is whether Phillips holds tier 7 or better with the Jets or whether the role compresses to swing depth.

Phillips came out of Stanford as the Buffalo Bills' 3rd-round pick (96th overall) in 2018 and spent four years with the Bills before signing with the Minnesota Vikings in 2022. He signed with the New York Jets in 2025. His STTM career runs tier 6 (#42) in 2021, tier 4 (#32) peak in 2022 with Minnesota, tier 7 (#51) in 2023, tier 6 (#45) in 2024, and tier 8 (#70) in 2025.

Strengths

2022 tier 4 (#32) Vikings peak as a 3rd-round pick confirms a structural top-35 IDL ceiling existed in the right scheme fit.
Eight years of NFL survival across three teams gives him real journeyman veteran value.

Concerns

38-spot regression from tier 4 (#32) in 2022 to tier 8 (#70) in 2025 confirms the structural late-career decline is real.
Jets' broader defensive identity instability plus the multi-year offensive rebuild compresses the structural support around Phillips.

What to watch: Whether Phillips holds tier 7 or better in 2026 with the Jets or whether the role compresses to swing depth.
