Hurts is being asked to step up and deal after A.J. Brown's departure, with the Eagles needing to recreate Brown's production in the aggregate using their remaining receivers.

Jeremiah identifies Jalen Hurts as an auto-pick in round three (301-303 range), calling it a crime that he falls that far when he should be a round-two fixture at minimum. Hurts finished QB8 last year with 19.1 PPG, second in designed runs per game, and second in red zone carries per game with 8 rushing TDs.PositiveProjectionJun 11, 2026

Jalen Hurts is mentioned as one of the quarterbacks that went off the board in the startup draft before the value tier dropped significantly.PositiveValueNo date
Ranked QB6 but undervalued due to recency bias from 2025 Eagles' poor offensive performance; finished QB8 in 2025 despite the disastrous offense and will benefit from new offensive coordinator (replacing Kevin Petula), improved offensive line health, and addition of Makai Lemon. The source expects a much better year closer to 2024 production and positions Hurts as a league-winner value pick that home leagues will be disgusted by, available at a really good cost. Tush push remaining legal is a difference-maker for his rushing TD upside, where he leads the league in QB rushing attempts and TDs.NegativeProjectionNo date
Jalen Hurts is part of the Eagles offense, which Alex Dunlap classifies as a sub-25 implied team total offense where he can make a good argument for targeting one aspect over another, rather than drafting all players.
