Dynasty Value Score (DVS)

2,023

Range 1,894–2,150

Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection

Peak window — still valuable, but age is already shaping the dynasty price.

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

Watch

Vea had 3 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DL118 through 5 games. Through 5 games the rank is DL118, off a DL49 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. The 2026 projection is modest — the role has to hold. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
