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.

  • Combine ×1.00

    Athletic composite 6.1/10 (RAS-like; fades after year 2).

  • Org environment ×1.01

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

Quick answer

Wilson scored 181.3 IDP (solo 1.5 / sack 4) points in 2025 (LB18). Age 26.3 LB with a quiet recent trend — wait for a clearer signal. 2026 projects more depth/flex than locked starter — price the role, not the name.
