Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Proven LB 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.

Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.
Durability ×0.98
3 of last 3 seasons under 15 games — slight availability risk, not a short 2026 slate.
Org environment ×1.01
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Cashman had 20 solo tackles, 2.5 sacks in 2026, ranking LB10 through 5 games. Through 5 games he sits LB10, up from LB21 — a climb, not a final rank. Into 2026, the projection still expects starter production. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
