Young DL with proof and a long runway.
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 ×0.98
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
WatchWest had 1 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DL188 through 2 games. Through 2 games the rank is DL188, off a DL152 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. Played a short 2025 (10 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
