From DB4 to DB22 through 5 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

3,603

Range 3,312–3,890

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DB 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.

Player quality

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.

  • Durability ×0.98

    2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.

  • Org environment ×0.98

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

Quick answer

Watch

Belton had 18 solo tackles, 1 sack in 2026, ranking DB22 through 5 games. From DB4 to DB22 through 5 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
