Brock Purdy is one of those players who is better in the real NFL than in fantasy leagues...he's had only one year where he finished as a top-12 fantasy quarterback. Right off the bat, Purdy finishing as QB11 would be a novelty.

Purdy's QB11 ranking unlikely given 49ers injuries and weakened supporting cast.

Purdy is ranked QB11 but the source argues he's unlikely to finish as a top-12 fantasy quarterback this season. Despite winning 2/3 of games started and leading the 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance in four years as starter, he's had only one year finishing as a top-12 fantasy QB. The 49ers offense faces significant injury concerns: Ricky Pearsall is out for the year, George Kittle (32, perpetually injured) is recovering from a torn Achilles and uncertain for Week 1, Mike Evans has a quad strain, and others are injured. Even if healthy, his supporting cast is diminished from 2023 when he made the Pro Bowl and finished top-4 in MVP voting—that year he had Brandon Aiyuk (1,342 yards), Kittle in all 16 games, Deebo Samuel, and Christian McCaffrey (OPOY). The source concludes Purdy would need many things to go right to approach a QB11 finish.
