Range 121–260
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.

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.
Quick answer
Epenesa scored 70.8 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2025 (LB114). Age 27.9 LB with a quiet recent trend — wait for a clearer signal. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role expands.
