Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

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.

Player quality

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.

  • Org environment ×0.99

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

Quick answer

Tavai scored 57.8 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2025 (LB131). LB, age 29.9 — the profile is quiet enough that patience is the right call. The 2026 line is modest; opportunity has to break right.
