Value through each week · 2026 · Dynasty IDP

Recalculated: today's model on the games through each week, valued at today's point in the season. It shows what each week's games did to his value, not the values Swindlr showed at the time.

Swindlr records its published values weekly from Oct 28, 2026; they'll appear here as a record beside this chart.

This season 20%Next two seasons 40%Later 40%

63% of it is what he's projected to score (17.0 a game, aged season by season) and 37% is upside, the chance he does better. The projection weighs this season's 24.6 a game over 6 games against last season's 11.5 and his draft slot, giving less weight to last season when his role has grown, and it moves as the games pile up.

What he's worth in a trade

Dynasty IDP

Real trades · 196 in the last year · 155 in dynasty Superflex leagues

The last 90 days of the sample, dynasty leagues: 63 trades, 51 Superflex or 2QB and 12 one-QB, 46 with a TE premium. Every trade with him, by format →

What managers actually gave for Kenneth in completed trades in public Sleeper leagues, leagues like Dynasty IDP first. Each shows the date and the league's settings; the price is what was agreed then, and the line under it is today's value, a different thing. Two-team trades of up to four pieces a side; none is left out for disagreeing with Swindlr. No league or manager names. 3 of them look lopsided at today's values (values move after a trade, with injuries and role changes, so a fair price then can look lopsided now); none is left out.
