Player quality
Why this DVS moved off a raw projection — not extra 0–10,000 components.
Durability ×0.98
One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.
Process ×0.98
Process residual (not a second production percentile).
Org environment ×0.98
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
Daniels scored 114.3 Half-PPR points in 2025 (QB34). Only 7 games in 2025 — durability, not age band, is the headline. The 2026 Engine outlook still prices him as a locked top-shelf QB.
