Finish path matters here: DB151 → DB70 is a breakout, not a development pitch; 2026 also ended early (1 games).

Young DB with proof and a long runway.

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.

Quick answer

Buy

Johnson had 2 solo tackles in 2026, finishing DB70. Coming off a real climb — DB151 to DB70 tells the story better than age. 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.
