Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Range 2,822–3,290
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
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).
Quick answer
HoldOtton caught 3 passes for 26 yards in 2026, finishing TE27. Played a short 2026 (1 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
