Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Range 1,3041,426

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

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.

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

  • Durability ×0.95

    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 1 solo tackles, 1 sack in 2026, finishing DL31. After a rough middle year (DL155), DL31 looks like a reset worth tracking. Played a short 2026 (1 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.
