Brock Purdy - 2025 Dynasty Fantasy Football Sleepers and Trade Targets

Brock Purdy is a dynasty fantasy football sleeper and trade target for 2025. Read the fantasy football outlook for the San Francisco 49ers quarterback.

RotoBaller Dynasty Ranking: QB16

Dynasty Analysis: Brock Purdy likely just capped his worst season as a pro for the next five years. The 49ers were plagued by injuries and ailments last season. Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk held out for a new contract and missed a lot of training camp, so he was rusty to start the season. Then, he tore his ACL and MCL in Week 7. Rookie WR Ricky Pearsall missed six games due to a gunshot wound in the offseason.

WR Deebo Samuel Sr. caught pneumonia and never returned to his old self for the rest of the 2024 season. And star running back Christian McCaffrey barely played at all due to bilateral Achilles tendinitis and a PCL injury. The offensive line also collapsed when left tackle Trent Williams started battling injuries, and he ultimately missed time.

Yet, Purdy still had a solid season, absolutely carrying his offense for most of the year. The gimmicky Samuel plays weren't working, Aiyuk didn't have a strong connection with Purdy when he played, and Pearsall's development was stunted, yet Purdy made it work. He finished as the QB14 on the season despite missing two games. Had he played in those, he likely would have finished in the top 10.

Despite having turned 25 years old in December, he's ranked as just the QB16 in RotoBaller's Dynasty QB rankings. That makes him undervalued. It's not his fault he had a "down" season last year. With a bit better injury luck and some reinforcements on the offensive line, he should have a much better season in 2025.

And even if the offensive line continues to struggle, Purdy is one of the best sack-avoiding quarterbacks in the NFL. He's more capable of dealing with pressure than most signal-callers, so he has some insulation against poor play in the trenches. And he rushed for 323 yards and five touchdowns in 2024, so his rushing upside isn't negligible.
