DB63 slipped to DB108 last year; that's the warning.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

970

Range 950–991

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DB 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.

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

Watch

Murphy-Bunting had 27 solo tackles, 3 INT in 2024, finishing DB108. DB63 slipped to DB108 last year; that's the warning. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
