Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

593

Range 572614

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven TE 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

    3 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.

  • Process ×1.03

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Oliver caught 2 passes for 22 yards in 2026, finishing TE31. Path runs TE37 → TE48 → TE31 — a bounce-back, not a blank slate. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
