Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

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.

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.

Quick answer

Smith scored 1.5 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2024 (DL211). 2024 stopped at 3 games; availability is the swing factor into next year. The 2026 model is cautious — wait for a real role change before paying up.
