Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

5,133

Range 4,684–5,574

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DL 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.

Quick answer

Hold

Simmons had 15 solo tackles, 2 sacks in 2026, ranking DL4 through 5 games. He's 29 — that's peak DL age, not a wait-and-see profile. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
