Brock Purdy vs Trevor Lawrence
Trevor Lawrence holds a 18.7% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/20/2026
THE CASE FOR PURDY
Purdy has already delivered high-end efficiency and usable QB1 weeks in a stable, well-designed Shanahan offense with elite surrounding talent. His weekly floor is buoyed by play-calling, YAC weapons, and a strong team environment that consistently creates scoring chances. At an 11.5% discount, he’s the better points-per-value bet if you’re optimizing roster construction and don’t need to pay for theoretical upside.
THE CASE FOR LAWRENCE
Lawrence still offers the cleaner long-term bet as a former elite prospect with a profile that can support sustained top-8 QB seasons if the offense coheres. His ceiling is easier to project if Jacksonville improves OL/play-calling and he regains more rushing/goal-line value, giving him paths to difference-making fantasy seasons. The market premium also reflects superior job security and insulation against short-term volatility compared to Purdy.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Take Purdy at the discount unless you can buy Lawrence without paying the full 11.5% gap and you specifically need ceiling outcomes to win weeks.
Lean Lawrence for longer runway and perceived liquidity, but only if you’re confident you can later sell him at/above this premium.
It’s close—Purdy is the better value, Lawrence is the better bet to hold peak dynasty value if his situation clicks.
