Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

5,887

Range 5,351–6,394

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.

Proven QB 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.

  • Process ×0.99

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×1.02

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Prescott threw for 1,381 yards and 9 TDs in 2026, ranking QB5 through 5 games. QB5 through 5 games is the running rank, next to a QB6 season. 2026 still looks like a starter, not a stash. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
