391

Range 346–437

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Depth/upside bet — DL role isn't locked starter volume yet.

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 ×0.95

    2 of last 3 seasons under 15 games.

  • Org environment ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Nichols finished DT17 in 2025. After a rough middle year (DT27), DT17 looks like a reset worth tracking. 2025 stopped at 3 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
