Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

3,657

Range 3,359–3,949

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Proven DB in his prime — production and runway both hold.

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 low

Blankenship had 21 solo tackles, 1 INT in 2026, ranking DB12 through 5 games. He ranks DB12 through 5 games, after DB61. The season isn't over. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
