Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

3,991

Range 3,324–4,506

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

Young LB with runway — the score still pays for the years ahead.

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

Hold

Knight had 25 solo tackles, 1 INT in 2026, ranking LB33 through 7 games. At 26, nothing in the recent seasons jumps off the page. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
