From DB99 to DB164 through 4 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

3,015

Range 2,783–3,242

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

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Watch

Stingley had 7 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB164 through 4 games. Through 4 games the rank is DB164, off a DB99 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
