Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

756

Range 754–757

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Peak window — still valuable, but age is already shaping the dynasty price.

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.

  • Org environment ×1.02

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

Quick answer

Buy low

Ebukam had 2 solo tackles, 2.5 sacks in 2026, ranking DL66 through 4 games. He ranks DL66 through 4 games, after DL83. The season isn't over. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
