Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

4,107

Range 1,492–5,993

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection Featured usage in a listed second role — score moved up inside a new range.

Proven WR 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.

  • Process ×1.00

    Process residual (not a second production percentile).

  • Org environment ×0.98

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Bateman caught 16 passes for 233 yards in 2026, ranking WR45 through 5 games. Current rank is WR45 through 5 games — WR101 was the last finished season. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
