Fantasy Football Player Notes

Week 1 Rankings

Brock Purdy Note

Purdy was amazing last year, no matter what metric you look at. He was the QB6 in fantasy points per game and first in fantasy points per dropback. Purdy was also sixth in passing yards per game, third in passing touchdowns, third in CPOE, and 11th in adjusted completion rate. While he could easily turn in a QB1 outing in Week 1, if you have other options to consider in the same low-end QB1 area code, I would seriously consider starting them. The Jets were the wrecker of quarterbacks' dreams last year, allowing the fourth-lowest yards per attempt, the fewest fantasy points per game, and the second-lowest CPOE. This looks like a game where the 49ers could lean on Christian McCaffrey.
