Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
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.

Valdez had 4 solo tackles, 1 sack in 2026, ranking DL97 through 3 games. He's 24 with a quiet recent trend — no red flag, no spike either. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
