Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Range 0135

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Depth/upside bet — WR role isn't locked starter volume yet.

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.

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

  • Combine ×1.01

    Athletic composite 7.7/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).

  • Org environment ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Hold

Smith caught 7 passes for 41 yards in 2024, finishing WR144. He scored 12% more than his touches said he should. Only 3 games in 2024 — availability is the headline. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
