Finish path matters here: DB196 → DB68 is a breakout, not a development pitch; 2026 also ended early (1 games).

Young DB with proof and a long runway.
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 ×0.98
One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.
Org environment ×0.98
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Thomas had 4 solo tackles in 2026, finishing DB68. Coming off a real climb — DB196 to DB68 tells the story better than age. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
