RB, age 25 — nothing loud in the recent trend.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

274

Range 173–388

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

Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.

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.

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Hold

Black ran for 136 yards and caught 1 pass in 2026, ranking RB59 through 5 games. He's 25 with a quiet recent trend — no red flag, no spike either. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
