Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

141

Range 4–279

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Rookie capital play — the score leans on draft pedigree and the projection, not a long NFL sample.

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

Buy

Josephs had 3 solo tackles in 2026, ranking LB172 through 3 games. Age 23 leaves room to grow — if opportunity sticks. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. Age is on his side — a reasonable buy if the LB role keeps opening up.
