Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

55

Range 0188

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 6.5/10 (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 52 yards in 2025, finishing WR173. He scored about 53% less than his touches said he should. At 25, nothing in the recent seasons jumps off the page. The 2026 projection is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
