Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Depth/upside bet — TE 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.

  • Process ×1.01

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Watch

Conklin caught 7 passes for 101 yards in 2025, finishing TE81. He scored 15% more than his touches said he should. Production trend is soft: TE19 → TE81 over the last two seasons. 2025 stopped at 6 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
