Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

1,380

Range 1,308–1,431

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.

Proven DL 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.

    3 of last 3 seasons under 15 games.

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Buy low

McNeill had 7 solo tackles, 4.5 sacks in 2026, ranking DL29 through 7 games. Current rank is DL29 through 7 games — DL157 was the last finished season. Played a short 2025 (8 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
