Dynasty Value Score (DVS)
236
Range 119–353
Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.
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.

Quick answer
HoldWheatley had 11 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB147 through 3 games. At 25, nothing in the recent seasons jumps off the page. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
