Hayden Winks - PPR Rankings on Kyler Murray
ArticleHayden Winks 2026 Half-PPR rankings analysis: Kyler Murray
From the article
Kyler Murray is the buy low of all QBs. Going from the Cardinals (one of the worst orgs in American sports) to the Vikings (one of the best per NFLPA reports) can't be overstated, especially while HC Kevin O'Connell and Justin Jefferson are leading the way. Before 2025's disaster, this is how many fantasy points the Vikings' starting QBs with KOC have averaged and where that would've ranked last year in fantasy: Kirk Cousins (20.2, QB7), Nick Mullens (19.9, QB8), Sam Darnold (19.7, QB8), Josh Dobbs (17.6, QB17).

On 20+ yard passes since 2022, Kyler was down at 31% while throwing to worse WRs, behind a worse OL. Long story short, Kyler has a lot of prove in a contract season, and the environment has never been better. Never. Kyler is set up to bounce back to his career baseline of 18.9 fantasy points per game (QB11) with so much room for more. His QB17 price tag on Underdog and Yahoo are layups. Kyler will be one of my most drafted players. ... with confidence. As a...
