Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

62

Range 0129

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

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.

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

Watch

Watkins caught 15 passes for 142 yards in 2023, finishing WR131. Production trend is soft: WR87 → WR131 over the last two seasons. Only 5 games in 2023 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
