Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

2,333

Range 2,192–2,516

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.

Proven DL 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.
