All Dynasty Points insights about Kyler Murray

PositiveRoleJul 22, 2026
Murray's fantasy upside depends heavily on his willingness to use his legs as he did in 2019-2020 and 2024. In 2024, he had 78 rushing attempts and 500+ rushing yards. The source emphasizes that Murray's scramble rate in the red zone was historically high in 2020 but dipped in 2021 when he rushed for only five TDs. Reports suggest Murray has been reluctant to run as much as he did when younger, but the source stresses that rushing is his 'bankroll'—his path to fantasy success. KOC's offense operates over the middle of the field, and Murray's ability to adjust and use his legs will determine how well he fits the system.
PositiveProjectionJul 22, 2026
Murray is projected to finish in the mid-QB2 range in dynasty rankings, ranked behind Baker Mayfield and Cam Ward but ahead of Saquon Stroud, Malik Willis, and Daniel Jones. The source estimates a 70-75% probability that Murray plays well enough for the Vikings to want to retain him or that he remains a starting QB in 2027, with a 20% chance he plays well but signs elsewhere, and a 20-25% chance of a complete collapse. The source notes Murray's security hinges on Vikings' draft position and performance; if Minnesota drafts high enough to select a 2027 QB prospect, they may not re-sign Murray.
PositiveValueJul 22, 2026
Murray is a buy at QB22 in startups and QB24 on KeepTradeCut, priced around Daniel Jones (coming off Achilles) and Matthew Stafford (potentially one year left), despite never finishing outside top-12 at QB and being in what the source calls his best season setup. Murray has scored 16.4 PPG last season (5 games, one partial), but prior years show 18.4, 18.9, 19, 22, 24 PPG—a consistent low-end QB1 floor. He's paired with the best WR duo and best coach (Kevin O'Connell) of his career; KOC's offense maintains high pass rate inside the 10-yard line regardless of QB mobility, and Murray has averaged 30+ rushing yards per game every year of his career, providing a floor raiser.
