Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

1,864

Range 1,769–1,996

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

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.

Player quality

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

  • Durability ×0.98

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Org environment ×1.01

    Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
