Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

559

Range 534584

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DB 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

Watch

Kendrick had 5 solo tackles, 2 INT in 2025, finishing DB225. Production trend is soft: DB85 → DB225 over the last two seasons. Played a short 2025 (7 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
