Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

3,253

Range 2,997–3,504

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DB 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 ×0.98

    One recent short season (games missed). Production already saw the missed games — this is forward risk only.

  • Org environment ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Watch

Dugger had 5 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB201 through 3 games. From DB104 to DB201 through 3 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
