Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Proven DL 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.
Org environment ×0.99
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Slaton had 1 solo tackles in 2026, finishing DL43. Finish path matters here: DL54 → DL43 is a breakout, not a development pitch. 2026 stopped at 1 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
