Watch points

  • Game time. Only 24.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.2, Archer carries the 22nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the USL Championship of 34 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
