Jalen Hurts has had a different offensive coordinator in each season since 2022 when he found offensive bliss with Shane Steichen. Sean Mannion is the latest OC. In 2025, Hurts had a career-best 25 touchdown passes but snapped a four-season streak of double-digit rushing scores, finishing with eight. The Eagles' passing game ranked 23rd in yards and the running attack diminished from the previous season's dominance. The offense was too predictable and stagnated weekly, held to 20 points or less in 10 games, including a dismal 23-19 playoff loss to the 49ers. With O-line guru Jeff Stoutland no longer coaching, the offense is undergoing more change than usual.NegativeValueAug 1, 2026
The source rates Hurts as overvalued at Rounds 4-5 (QB5 ADP). While Hurts posted a decent 2025 with 25 passing touchdowns and 3,000+ yards for the fourth time in five seasons, his rushing production collapsed to 421 yards and eight touchdowns, both fewest since taking the helm in 2021. Critically, Hurts scored just five TDs from inside the 3-yard line last season, six fewer than both 2023 and 2024 (11 each). With Jason Kelce gone and the tush push neutered, Hurts finished as QB8, well below the elite tier. A.J. Brown's departure and a new first-time offensive coordinator in Sean Mannion make it unlikely his passing numbers improve. The QB5 price tag in the fifth round is too high.NegativeValueJul 30, 2026
The source rates Hurts as overvalued at QB5 (Rounds 4-5 ADP). While Hurts posted 25 passing touchdowns and 3,000+ yards in 2025, his rushing production collapsed to 421 yards and eight touchdowns, both fewest since 2021. Most critically, Hurts scored just five TDs from inside the 3-yard line last season, six fewer than both 2023 and 2024 (11 each), finishing as QB8 in fantasy. With A.J. Brown's departure, Jason Kelce gone, the tush push neutered, and a first-time offensive coordinator in Sean Mannion, the source sees limited upside for passing improvement and no goal-line dominance recovery.NegativeProjectionJul 24, 2026
Despite Philadelphia's wild-card exit, Hurts enjoyed a successful season with a career-high 25 passing touchdowns and 8 rushing touchdowns en route to a third Pro Bowl bid in four years. His 37-spot drop in the Top 100 ranking—his lowest since his 2023 debut at No. 3—reflects his decreased completion percentage and reduced run-game usage. He gained a league-low 39.6% of his passing yards via yards after the catch in 2025, one spot lower than Brock Purdy (40.0%), indicating reduced efficiency in generating yards after the catch compared to peers. Hurts remains one of the NFL's top dual-threat signal-callers entering his seventh season without the departed A.J. Brown.
