Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

319

Range 252–363

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

Depth/upside bet — RB role isn't locked starter volume yet.

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.

Quick answer

Hold

Vidal ran for 88 yards and caught 4 passes in 2026, ranking RB44 through 4 games. RB44 through 4 games is the running rank, next to a RB42 season. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. This is a hold, not a sell or a buy — the swings mean the price should already reflect the risk.
