Proven DL 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 ×0.99
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
Buy lowPaye had 4 solo tackles, 3 sacks in 2026, ranking DL49 through 7 games. DL49 through 7 games is the running rank, next to a DL63 season. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
