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.

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.

Quick answer

Watch

Cross had 5 solo tackles in 2026, finishing DB20. DB3 slipped to DB20 last year; that's the warning. Only 1 games in 2026 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
