We hold a single season for Devaney, 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 46, top 35% of the 40 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 19 Devaney is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 22.8 reflects that trajectory.
2.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 46, Devaney carries the 14th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship (top 35%), and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (ST Mirren finished 10th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.92 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~29), then tapers with age. At 19, Devaney sits on 22.8, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Devaney's projected Rating — 46 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
