Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

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.

2026 Engine Projections

Projected points per game

Quick answer

Buy low

Nwangwu ran for 49 yards in 2025, finishing RB120. He scored about 92% less than his touches said he should. Path runs RB139 → RB155 → RB120 — a bounce-back, not a blank slate. 2025 stopped at 10 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
