Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

425

Range 387–469

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

Proven LB 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.

Quick answer

Buy

Phillips had 14 solo tackles in 2026, ranking LB111 through 7 games. He ranks LB111 through 7 games, up from LB157. That's pace, not a finished season. The 2026 projection is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
