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 ×0.99

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Versatility ×1.02

    Light floor from multi-role usage (rush+receive or dual-threat).

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Nacua scored 310.5 Half-PPR points in 2025 (WR1). 2024 stopped at 11 games; availability is the swing factor into next year. Into 2026, the model still expects usable starter production.
