From DB196 to DB235 through 5 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

566

Range 542–590

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Core DB hold — the DVS blends recent production with the years still left.

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

Watch

Key had 4 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB235 through 5 games. Through 5 games the rank is DB235, off a DB196 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
