Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Proven QB 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.

Richardson threw for 9 yards in 2025, finishing QB69. He scored about 61% less than his touches said he should. QB25 slipped to QB69 last year; that's the warning. Only 2 games in 2025 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
