Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

178

Range 107249

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Depth/upside bet — RB 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 ×0.96

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Process ×0.98

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.02

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

Quick answer

Hold

Johnson ran for 200 yards and caught 24 passes in 2025, finishing RB47. He scored 6% more than his touches said he should. Expect range, not a smooth curve — recent finishes span RB47 to RB81. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. This is a hold, not a sell or a buy — the swings mean the price should already reflect the risk.
