Jalen HurtsQBPHI

Hurts is overvalued at QB5 price in the fifth round; he dropped to QB8 in 2025 after posting a career-high 25 passing touchdowns but just 421 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns (both fewest since 2021). With Jason Kelce gone, the tush push neutered, and only five goal-line TDs (fewest as starter, six fewer than 2023–2024), his passing numbers are unlikely to improve further with A.J. Brown's departure and a first-time offensive coordinator in Sean Mannion.

Source transcript excerpt
From a passing perspective, Jalen Hurts had a decent 2025, tossing a career-high 25 touchdowns and topping 3,000 yards for the fourth time in five seasons as the starter. However, he dropped to just 421 yards and eight touchdowns rushing, both fewest since taking the helm in 2021. Specifically, with Jason Kelce gone and the tush push somewhat neutered, Hurts scored just five TDs from inside the 3-yard line last season, fewest as the starter and six fewer than he had in both 2023 and 2024 (11). As a result, he finished as the QB8 in fantasy, well below the elite tier he'd previously called home. With A.J. Brown's departure and a(nother) first-time offensive coordinator in Sean Mannion, it's tough to see Hurts' passing numbers really improving. And with the Eagles lacking their former dominance at the goal line, the QB5 price tag in the fifth round is simply too high.
