Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

1,650

Range 3,4684,082

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Core kicker hold — the DVS blends recent production with the years still left.

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

Hold

Bates made 27 field goals in 2025, finishing K9. At 28, he's in the typical K peak window. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
