Kyler Murray's per-game rushing pace projects to roughly 624 yards over a full season, and that dual-threat profile pairs perfectly with coach Kevin O'Connell's scheme... He's my favorite quarterback in the later rounds this year, with a path to a top-10 finish.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Murray's dual-threat fit in O'Connell's scheme offers top-10 upside at QB18 ADP.

Murray is being drafted as QB18 despite projecting to 624 rushing yards per season in Kevin O'Connell's mobile QB scheme; he lands in the best offensive situation of his career with Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and T.J. Hockenson, plus a top-7 pass-protection line. Sam Darnold threw for 4,300 yards and 35 TDs in this system in 2024, and Murray is a better fit. Availability concern: 19 games missed in three seasons, though a single torn ACL accounts for two of those years. Jim Coventry's take: favorite QB in the later rounds with a path to top-10 finish; drafting him late and pairing with Baker Mayfield as insurance.
