Played a shortened 2025 (7 games) — health is the nearer question than talent.
Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
160
Range 26–294
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.
Org environment ×0.99
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Thornton scored 25.0 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2025 (DB240). Played a shortened 2025 (7 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. 2026 projection is thin — stash only if your league rewards upside bets.
