Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
664
Range 645–690
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.

Player quality
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.
Combine ×0.99
Athletic composite 2.5/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).
Org environment ×1.01
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
Black scored 42.0 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2025 (DL128). Age 24.3 DL with a quiet recent trend — wait for a clearer signal. Don't buy a bounce from the 2026 Engine line alone; it's a low-volume outlook.
