Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

0

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Depth/upside bet — QB 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.

Player quality

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.

  • Process ×0.98

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Combine ×1.01

    Athletic composite 7.3/10 (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

Cook threw for 739 yards and 2 TDs in 2025, finishing QB52. He scored about 39% less than his touches said he should. 2025 stopped at 5 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. 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.
