Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

495

Range 541–623

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

Core DL hold — the DVS blends recent production with the years still left.

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.

Quick answer

Buy

Durden had 8 solo tackles, 1.5 sacks in 2026, ranking DL62 through 7 games. Through 7 games he sits DL62, up from DL141 — a climb, not a final rank. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
