Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
50
Range 206–409
Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.
Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.
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.

Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
BuyRoush caught 3 passes for 33 yards in 2026, ranking TE79 through 5 games. He's 23 — best seasons can still be ahead if the role holds. The 2026 projection is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up. Age is on his side — a reasonable buy if the TE role keeps opening up.
