On long-term talent our Rating reads 8. At 35 Mesquita is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.

Watch points
- Game time. Only 12% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 7.9 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.7 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
