Placed in Tier 4; source is collectively higher on Purdy than redraft ADP. Finished second in EPA per play last year, making him a candidate to buy efficiency stats at reasonable prices depending on draft site.NegativeProjectionJul 31, 2026

Purdy's durability remains a concern; he was limited to nine appearances in 2025 due to toe and shoulder ailments. The source attributes this to his adventurous, freelancing style making him vulnerable to nicks and bruises. While he has a 49-game sample as a legitimate QB1, staying on the field is the primary obstacle to sustaining his elite production.PositiveProjectionJul 22, 2026
Purdy posted 24.6 points per game in 2025 when on the field, ranking behind only Josh Allen and Matthew Stafford despite operating with a depleted skill corps (leading receiver was his RB, No. 2 was an injured TE, No. 3 was Jauan Jennings). At a 49-game sample size, he has proven himself a legitimate QB1 in Shanahan's system; the source notes he's a born playmaker who doesn't just execute Shanahan's design but executes it in style, differentiating him from predecessors like Jimmy Garoppolo. With a revamped wideout group (Mike Evans, Ricky Pearsall, De'Zhaun Stribling) and George Kittle potentially returning, Purdy's efficiency should sustain or improve.PositiveProjectionJul 22, 2026
Purdy averaged 24.6 points per game in 2025 when on the field, ranking behind only Josh Allen and Matthew Stafford despite playing just nine games due to toe and shoulder ailments. The source notes his 7.0 touchdown percentage matches his impressive 2023 season and is even more impressive given the 49ers' skill corps deficiencies. At a 49-game sample size, Purdy has proven himself a legitimate QB1 operating as the perfect pilot for Shanahan's quarterback-friendly system; he's a born playmaker who attempts to execute in style rather than just knock down pins. With Shanahan having assembled more offensive weapons this offseason, Purdy's efficiency should remain elite if he can stay healthy.
