Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
266
Range 401–479
Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.
Depth/upside bet — WR role isn't locked starter volume yet.
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.

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.
Process ×0.99
Process residual (not a second production percentile).
Org environment ×0.99
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Boutte caught 14 passes for 169 yards in 2026, ranking WR80 through 6 games. He ranks WR80 through 6 games, down from WR47. Early, not a finished step down. The 2026 projection is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
