Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

679

Range 723–733

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

Peak window — still valuable, but age is already shaping the dynasty price.

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.
