From DB213 to DB281 through 1 game is a dip in pace, not a locked finish; 2025 also ended early (11 games).

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

564

Range 540–589

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

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.

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 ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Watch

Pettus had 2 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB281 through 1 game. He ranks DB281 through 1 game, down from DB213. Early, not a finished step down. 2025 stopped at 11 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.
