Remaining healthy all year and completing his first full season since 2020, Kyler Murray finished QB10 overall and QB12 in fantasy points per game (18.1) among quarterback who made multiple starts. It was a bumpy ride to get there, as Murray topped 25 fantasy points four times (three times if you exclude his big game in Week 18) and finished with 12 or fewer fantasy points five times. That's Murray in a nutshell. He can be wildly inconsistent from game to game - or even from half to half - but his rushing ability makes for a high ceiling. Murray ran for 572 yards and five touchdowns last season. Murray profiles as a boom/bust low-end QB1.

No quarterback was more frustrating to roster than the Cardinals QB. He was an emotional roller coaster as the QB11 overall and QB12 in points per game (17.5).
Among QBs to finish in the top 12 overall, Murray's 38% bust rate was the highest. He finished outside the top 12 QBs weekly in less than half of his games.
But Murray was completely tough to outright bench because, between bad games, he would post 21-plus fantasy points - which he did seven times. But only once did he post strong outings in consecutive weeks.
I understand the frustration, as noted in my NEVER DRAFT AGAIN video from earlier this offseason. Over the last three seasons, he has averaged over 30 rushing yards per game. But he's also the only QB to hit that threshold while also failing to finish top 10 in fantasy points per dropback. Woof.
But Murray was STILL fourth in QB rushing yards last season. WR Marvin Harrison Jr. will take a step forward in Year 2. TE Trey McBride will catch more TDs as Murray threw 7 fewer passing touchdowns compared to expectation.
