Ideal landing spot given Kevin O'Connell's history of getting strong play from less talanted quarterbacks.

Matt Waldman

QB18

Kevin O'Connell is seen as a veteran quarterback whisperer with his scheme and surrounding talent. He got good play temporarily from Josh Dobbs. They should have kept Sam Darnold. Now, they are hoping to rehab Kyler Murray.

Murray has a starter arm, elite scrambling, and some awesome off-script plays. He's a smart quarterback in many respects, but he's not a wise one.

Like Jaxson Dart, he doesn't move with precision in the pocket. This limits him extending plays without his receivers re-routing and killing his offensive line's protection.

Murray has one season where he has supported more than one fantasy starter in the passing game in Arizona. Trey McBride told the media that many of his targets came from Murray skipping his first read and going directlyl to McBride.

Will this happen with Justin Jefferson? Unlikely, but it could mean he won't support this talented passing corps.

Murray's highlights look good. Then, you study his film...

Should win the starting QB job in Minnesota, where I expect him to once again be a productive fantasy asset. For how long? A wide range of outcomes produces the biggest upside/downside swing of any Top 24 QB.
