Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

473

Range 576–617

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DL 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 ×0.95

    3 of last 3 seasons under 15 games.

  • Org environment ×0.98

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Givens ranks DL229 in 2026 through 1 game. He ranks DL229 through 1 game, after DL245. The season isn't over. Played a short 2025 (2 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
