Context and Team Impact

• Purdy's slight dip in efficiency largely tied to limited availability of supporting cast

2025 Fantasy Football Outlook

1. Offensive Situation and Surrounding Talent

• Signed a 5-year, $265M extension in May 2025, signaling full franchise commitment

• Core playmakers remain: Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall, and a returning Brandon Aiyuk

• Shanahan’s system continues to provide a fantasy-friendly framework

2. Rushing Floor

• 323 rushing yards and 5 rushing TDs in 2024 added valuable weekly fantasy floor

• Among top 10 QBs in total rushing production, offering sneakily strong dual-threat value

3. Health and Durability

• Minor shoulder/elbow issues from 2024 addressed in the offseason

• Only missed two games last season and maintains a solid durability profile heading into 2025

Headliners Take

Brock Purdy heads into 2025 as a quietly valuable fantasy asset. While the 49ers' 2024 campaign was hampered by injuries, Purdy still managed a top-10 finish in passing yards and added sneaky rushing value with five ground scores.

Now with a fresh contract, a (hopefully) healthy core around him, and another year in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, Purdy should be drafted as a fringe QB1 with clear weekly upside. His ability to generate chunk plays and red-zone efficiency—especially if Pearsall emerges as a legitimate threat—could make him one of the more overlooked draft values at the position.

Verdict: Draft as a high-floor, mid-round QB with weekly top-12 upside—especially appealing in 2QB or Superflex formats.
