Matt Harmon notes that his confidence in Kyler Murray as a fantasy starter has waned since May, citing a potential split-start scenario where Murray could see 13 starts while JJ gets four.NegativeProjectionAug 10, 2026
Kyler Murray has shifted to a yellow-light or red-light status for Scott Pianowski. Concerns include reports of him being behind schedule in practice, potential competition from J.J. McCarthy, and his inability to elevate the offense compared to backup Jacoby Brissett last season.PositiveValueJul 21, 2026
Murray is ranked QB 14, 114th overall, but is going off the board as QB 17 in ADP. Despite a down 2024 season where he posted a 4.72 adjusted net yards per attempt (37th of 45 QBs), he was still significantly better than J.J. McCarthy. In his six seasons before last year, Murray was a top-12 fantasy quarterback every single season. Boone believes the Vikings quarterback competition is coach speak and that Murray will be the week-one starter. Learning a new Kevin O'Connell offense, Murray should get more comfortable as the summer progresses. His ADP could flirt with top-12 numbers, and if he performs like his first six seasons, he offers great value as a late-round quarterback you can start all year.PositiveValueJun 10, 2026
Kyler Murray is currently being drafted as QB 17, which is seen as a significant value given his history of success and the new environment in Minnesota.
