Hurts' QB5 draft price is too high; rushing TDs collapsed to 5 from 11 in prior years.
The source rates Hurts as overvalued heading into 2026 fantasy drafts. In 2025, Hurts passed for a career-high 25 touchdowns and over 3,000 yards but rushed for just 421 yards and eight touchdowns—both fewest since becoming the starter in 2021. Most critically, he scored only five rushing touchdowns from inside the 3-yard line, the fewest as starter and six fewer than in both 2023 and 2024 (11 each). With Jason Kelce gone, the tush push neutered, A.J. Brown's departure, and a first-time offensive coordinator in Sean Mannion, the source sees little reason for passing numbers to improve. Hurts finished as QB8 in 2025 but carries a QB5 price tag in the fifth round, which the source deems 'simply too high.'
