Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

1,118

Range 386–1,118

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection Listed as the lead with the touches — score stepped up for that role, not to the previous starter's price.

Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.

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.

  • Combine ×0.99

    Athletic composite 3.8/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).

  • Org environment ×0.98

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

Quick answer

Hold

Jackson had 9 solo tackles, 1 sack in 2026, ranking DL47 through 8 games. At 24, nothing in the recent seasons jumps off the page. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
