Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Elite kicker production now; the age curve is already in the score.

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

    2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.

Quick answer

Fade risk

McManus made 24 field goals in 2025, finishing K24. 2024 stopped at 11 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. He's 35 now, old enough that decline risk is real. Age makes this a fade risk in dynasty — win-now value only, don't pay a long-term price.
