Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

210

Range 415–490

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Elite LB production now; the age curve is already in the score.

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.

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Watch

Dupree had 2 solo tackles in 2026, ranking LB210 through 4 games. He ranks LB210 through 4 games, down from LB187. Early, not a finished step down. Played a short 2025 (10 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
