Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
2,713
Range 2,272–2,713
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.

Quick answer
BuyBoston caught 17 passes for 345 yards in 2026, ranking WR19 through 6 games. Age 23 leaves room to grow — if opportunity sticks. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. Age is on his side — a reasonable buy if the WR role keeps opening up.
