Mark Ringo Sleepers and Busts | Kyler Murray tore his ACL on Dec 12th. Murray had his surgery on January 3rd. I'm at a loss why so many of my peers are ranking him so high. Most folks need 12 months to recover from a torn ACL. And many don't feel close to 100% until closer to two years after their operation. This is a serious injury folks. And Murray is not a typical QB who just throws from the pocket. He's undersized. He uses his mobility a lot to elude pass rushers and pick up valuable rushing yards. He's essentially a part-time RB. That's how he hurt his knee in the first place- scrambling. Quick cuts are the most difficult skill needed to do after tearing up a knee and that's all Kyler does. For many folks, there's doubt if the knee will hold up or if it will give out like it did before. I know this firsthand after tearing my ACL a long time ago. That can lead to unintentionally compensating for it which in turn, leads to other injuries such as hamstring strains. The Cardinals' offensive line is a work in progress. They added Paris Johnson in the first round, but they need to upgrade it further. In addition, DeAndre Hopkins is most likely headed out of town. So Murray will lose his top WR threat. And they're not a good team. They'll be in the running for the top overall pick in next year's draft. There's little incentive to rush Murray back once they're eliminated from the playoffs. There's a good chance they just redshirt him this year, and play the long game by letting Murray fully recover. My advice- don't burn a draft pick and a bench spot waiting for Murray to comeback in 2023, because there's a very real chance that might not happen. Bust | |
Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | 2/8 - Payton offers hope to all Broncos, especially the main passing game weapons. Still hesitant to go all in w/ Russ looking so bad, but if anyone can salvage him & this passing game, it's Payton | 5/26: DeAndre Hopkins released - this could signal a real "tank" for 2023, and I would not be surprised if Murray sat half, if not more, of the 2023 season -- his ceiling and floor have both dropped dramatically & Murray returns to a "Do Not Draft" 5/5: Promising recent steps in his recovery + an improved line + Hopkins here... things are looking up for Murray, a previous Top-5 No Brainer. Rumblings he may miss all of 2023 make Kyler undraftable in early offeason - but still so much upside even if you get only a half |
Pat Fitzmaurice FantasyPros | Plagued by subpar QB play for years, the Broncos viewed Russell Wilson as a potential savior and gave up a bevy of draft capital to acquire him. Wilson's first year in Denver was bitterly disappointing, as he turned in the worst season of his 11-year career, with career lows in completion percentage (60.5%), passer rating (84.4) and touchdown passes (16), and a career high in sacks (55). Once a dangerous runner, Wilson doesn't run as much these days, and he doesn't escape pressure as easily. It's possible that this accomplished passer has a bounce-back season in 2023 under the tutelage of Sean Payton, but we can't assume that the 34-year-old Wilson will return to something close to vintage form. Approach with caution. | Kyler Murray will pose an interesting dilemma for fantasy drafters in 2023. A dangerous dual-threat QB who's averaged 21.2 fantasy points over 57 NFL starts, Murray tore his ACL on Dec. 12 and may not be ready for the start of the season, so his recovery will have to be monitored closely over the summer. Murray regressed as a passer in 2022, averaging just 6.1 yards per attempt. But Murray finished QB2 in fantasy scoring in 2020, and at his best he's a difference-making quarterback who can rack up fantasy points with both his arm and his legs. |
Derek Lofland FantasyPros | For what it is worth, Wilson had 49 fantasy points in the 2 games after Nathaniel Hackett was fired and Sean Payton should do much better utilizing Wilson's skill set in the offense. Wilson turns 35-years old this year, but he could be a bargain with a major head coaching upgrade. |
