Now, heading into this season as the Vikings' quarterback, he's being drafted as QB17, but he is in a far better situation. He has a better offensive line protecting him; he has a quarterback-friendly coach in Kevin O'Connell and his pass-catchers are excellent, including Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jauan Jennings. On top of all of that, Murray can still run. He will be a fantasy QB1 this season and can be had at an extremely low price.

Murray drafted as QB17 but has QB1 upside with Vikings' elite situation and low price.

Murray is being drafted as QB17 despite finishing as QB11 last season on a bad Arizona Cardinals team while playing only five games. Now with the Vikings, he has a significantly improved situation: better offensive line, quarterback-friendly coach Kevin O'Connell, elite pass-catchers in Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Jauan Jennings, and he retains his rushing ability (572 yards, five touchdowns in 2024). The source projects him as a fantasy QB1 this season and emphasizes he can be had at an extremely low price given his current ADP.
