Young DL with proof and a long runway.
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.

Athletic composite 6.8/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).

Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Verse had 8 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DL57 through 5 games. Traded from the Rams to Cleveland as the headliner return in the Myles Garrett deal (plus three draft picks heading to LA). The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
