Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

67

Range 122–260

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection Injured — score leans to the low end of the range until he returns.

Depth/upside bet — RB role isn't locked starter volume yet.

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.

  • Org environment ×0.99

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