Fantasy Life Articles on Brock Purdy
From the article
With Evans off the field this season, Purdy is averaging 7.7 yards per attempt and 0.48 fantasy points per dropback to go along with a 4.9% TD rate. But with Evans on the field, Purdy's much better, averaging 8.9 yards per attempt and 0.75 fantasy points per dropback, while the touchdown rate climbs to 9.3%.
STACKED’s take
Purdy's decline is Evans-dependent; buy low before bye and Evans return.
Purdy has underperformed in recent weeks (QB15 average over last three games) due to Mike Evans' Achilles injury, but the source identifies this as a prime acquisition window. With Evans off the field, Purdy averages 7.7 yards per attempt and 0.48 fantasy points per dropback with a 4.9% TD rate; with Evans on the field, those metrics jump to 8.9 yards per attempt, 0.75 fantasy points per dropback, and 9.3% TD rate. Evans has a good chance of returning after the 49ers' Week 8 bye. Over the full season, Purdy ranks among the five best quarterbacks in EPA/Play (0.23), trailing only Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, and provides a solid floor with rushing (at least 25 yards in five of seven games). The source recommends acquiring Purdy now while he's unavailable, especially with Las Vegas and Dallas matchups coming after the bye.
