RB, age 26 — nothing loud in the recent trend.

Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

1,952

Range 1,715–2,153

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection In-season usage moved the score inside this range.

Young RB 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.

Quick answer

Hold

Croskey-Merritt ran for 239 yards and caught 5 passes in 2026, ranking RB27 through 5 games. At 26, nothing in the recent seasons jumps off the page. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
