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 ×0.95

    3 of last 3 seasons under 15 games.

  • Org environment ×1.02

    Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.

Quick answer

Buy low

Thomas had 10 solo tackles in 2025, finishing DB229. The arc is recovery: DB229, then DB248, now DB229. 2025 stopped at 9 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
