2024 Season Outlooks

Easily one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the league, Purdy has solidified himself as a top-12 Fantasy QB thanks to averaging over 20 Fantasy points (six points per passing TD) in each of his first two seasons. In fact he's hit that 20-point mark in nearly 70% of his regular-season games. It's not because of volume -- Purdy averaged 27.8 passes per game last year, putting him 22nd among 23 qualifiers in the stat. It's what he does with the ball: Purdy was first among qualifying passers in yards per attempt (9.6), second in TD rate (7.0%) and second in completion rate (69.4%). In fact if he threw more passes more often, he'd challenge to be among the best quarterbacks in Fantasy. As it stands, he's consistent with a high ceiling in any matchup with high scoring potential. That's why he's a top Fantasy option once you're past all the QBs in the first two tiers. In fact, he's a value in one-QB leagues because you'll draft him after 100th overall. In Superflex/two-QB leagues he'll be taken in Round 2 as approximately the 10th quarterback off the board.

Purdy returned from UCL surgery by fending off (theoretical) competition at the position and putting together a breakout effort in 2023. Surrounded by elite YAC talent, serving in an ultra-friendly scheme and buoyed by a solid defense, Mr. Irrelevant didn't always have to do a whole lot to win games. That sometimes meant underwhelming numbers from a fantasy perspective, though Purdy did average more than 18 fantasy points per contest and finished inside the top 10 among fantasy QBs. He's not the most dynamic player, but his situation provides him (and fake football managers) with a wonderfully high floor. He projects to post fringe-QB1 fantasy numbers again in 2024.
