Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

Range 570–613
Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Win-now veteran — still scores, but dynasty runway is short at this age for a DL.
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
WatchJenkins had 2 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DL176 through 3 games. From DL76 to DL176 through 3 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. He's 37 — older DLs usually lose work and upside. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
