Recent form cooled from TE28 to TE39 — watch whether that's noise or a real step down.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven TE 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

    2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.

  • Process ×1.03

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Watch

Fant caught 34 passes for 288 yards in 2025, finishing TE39. He scored 7% more than his touches said he should. TE28 slipped to TE39 last year; that's the warning. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
