Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
468
Range 570–612
Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Win-now veteran — still scores, but dynasty runway is short at this age for a DL.
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.

Quick answer
