Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

5,285

Range 4,823–5,745

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection He is out. The job is still his when he returns.

Elite WR 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.

  • Process ×0.99

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Fade risk

Adams caught 30 passes for 480 yards in 2026, ranking WR5 through 6 games. He's 34 — older WRs usually lose work and upside. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. Age makes this a fade risk in dynasty — win-now value only, don't pay a long-term price.
