Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

138

Range 250–361

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection Injured — score leans to the low end of the range until he returns.

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.

Quick answer

Watch

Smythe caught 1 pass for 4 yards in 2026, ranking TE108 through 3 games. Through 3 games the rank is TE108, off a TE100 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. Only 7 games in 2025 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
