Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

538

Range 488548

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven WR in his prime — production and runway both hold.

DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Player quality

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

  • Durability ×0.98

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Process ×0.99

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.01

    Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.

Quick answer

Hold

Hutchinson caught 3 passes for 32 yards in 2026, finishing WR61. Expect range, not a smooth curve — recent finishes span WR61 to WR140. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. This is a hold, not a sell or a buy — the swings mean the price should already reflect the risk.
