From DL81 to DL90 through 6 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish.

Picked by the Rams in 2017 via a trade with the Jets.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

756

Range 754–757

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection He is out. The job is still his when he returns.

Peak window — still valuable, but age is already shaping the dynasty price.

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 ×1.02

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

Quick answer

Watch

Ebukam had 4 solo tackles, 2.5 sacks in 2026, ranking DL90 through 6 games. Through 6 games the rank is DL90, off a DL81 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
