Brock Purdy — 2026 Fantasy Outlook

The case for drafting him

Purdy's three-year averages tell a coherent story: 394.3 pass attempts, 268.3 completions, 3,437 passing yards, 23.7 passing touchdowns, and 3.3 rushing touchdowns per season. The rushing dimension has grown — he went from 39 carries for 144 yards and 2 touchdowns in 2023 to 66 carries for 323 yards and 5 touchdowns in 2024, adding a floor that a pure pocket passer doesn't carry. His 2025 line was condensed — 284 attempts, 2,167 yards, 20 touchdowns — but his per-attempt efficiency held: 197 completions on 284 tries is a 69.4% completion rate, and he threw only 10 interceptions against 20 touchdowns. The turnover picture has also improved; he lost just 2 fumbles in 2025 after losing 2 in 2023 and 3 in 2024. If you want a QB12 with a rushing floor and a clean recent turnover profile, the case is straightforward.

What the model projects

The projection is 241.6 half-PPR fantasy points, placing Purdy QB12 and #154 overall. His draft value is -25.8, meaning he projects below replacement level at the quarterback position on a 12-team half-PPR baseline. He sits in Tier 9 on the overall board. His bye week is Week 8.

The range of outcomes

Purdy's three-year history shows real variance. His 2023 season produced 4,280 passing yards and 31 passing touchdowns; his 2024 line was 3,864 yards and 20 passing touchdowns; his 2025 season came in at 2,167 yards and 20 passing touchdowns on a sharply reduced attempt volume. That spread — from a full, high-volume season to a condensed one — is the honest range of outcomes you're buying. The rushing contribution adds upside: 323 yards and 5 touchdowns on the ground in 2024 is a meaningful ceiling boost, while 2025's 147 rush yards and 3 touchdowns on 33 attempts represents the floor of that dimension. Interceptions have trended in the right direction (11 in 2023, 12 in 2024, 10 in 2025), but fumbles remain a factor — he has averaged 5.3 per season over the past three years.
