Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.
Durability ×0.96
One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.
Process ×1.01
Process residual (not a second production percentile).
Org environment ×1.01
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
McNichols ran for 221 yards and caught 25 passes in 2025, finishing RB59. He scored 6% more than his touches said he should. RB year-to-year rank has been jumpy; don't buy one season as destiny. He's 31 — older RBs usually lose work and upside. This is a hold, not a sell or a buy — the swings mean the price should already reflect the risk.
