ROOKIEBIBLEVerdict
— HOLD

Fonti bounced back to 65 in R12 after the concerning 43 in a blowout last round — 17 above his 48 BE and a genuine step up from the vest-influenced soft score. Cash gen is still positive at +$1,107/wk and the GWS defensive role is intact. The vest risk in blowouts remains real and his 65 is well below his 76 season average, but one proper bounce-back round after a blowout blip is exactly what you needed. Hold for now — monitor whether the scoring gets back toward 75+ before considering a trade.
