With a Rating of 37.6, Roberts carries the 43rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Major League Soccer of 135 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample.

Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to 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 (~20), then tapers with age. At 22, Roberts sits on 18.6, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Roberts's projected Rating — 37.6 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.
