Dynasty Sell Now: Brock Purdy

Jeff Bell's Dynasty Sell Now: Brock Purdy Jeff Bell Published 08/03/2023

Davis Mills was found money. A third-round pick in many Superflex drafts, Mills had the support of the Texans organization entering the 2022 offseason. Fantasy football wanted to believe too. Mills climbed the Superflex rankings, peaking at QB22 on Keeptradecut.com starting in January and carrying through the offseason.

Players had a 10-month sell window with Davis Mills. Mills was not an elite asset but a young quarterback with a starting job who could be something.

Mills is largely done in Dynasty, with youth his only real asset. The Texans coaching staff arrived from the 49ers and promptly selected C.J. Stroud second overall and relegated Mills to mid-backup value.

Brock Purdy is QB20.

This rank marks his highest value since late January.

Brock Purdy has the support of the 49ers. Fantasy football is ready to believe. But should they?

Why Sell?

How risky are you feeling?

Trey Lance is still lurking and still getting first-team reps. The 49ers are firmly between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand, Purdy closed the season so strong the team has to see if he can carry it into 2023. On the other hand, the team must find out what they have in Lance.

How does the team accomplish both?
