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.

Durability ×0.98
2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.
Newsome had 2 solo tackles in 2026, finishing DB139. Production trend is soft: DB118 → DB139 over the last two seasons. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
