Brock Purdy vs Tyler Shough
Brock Purdy holds a 19.6% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 10/2/2026
THE CASE FOR PURDY
Purdy is a locked-in starter on an elite, QB-friendly offense with high weekly efficiency and multi-year stability. His dynasty value is supported by real production and organizational commitment, making him a bankable SF QB2 with QB1 spike weeks. At essentially the same age as Shough, Purdy’s advantage is certainty: you’re buying a role, not a hope.
THE CASE FOR SHOUGH
Shough’s appeal is price and optionality: if he wins/keeps meaningful snaps in New Orleans, the value jump from this tier is massive. In a weak QB landscape, any path to starting games can turn him into a usable SF depth piece or flip candidate. If you’re portfolio-building cheap QBs, Shough is the type of bet that can pay off if chaos hits the depth chart.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Purdy—startable stability matters in contention, and the 23.3% gap is justified by role security.
Purdy—same age but far higher certainty and liquidity, while Shough is mostly a speculative chip.
Not close: take Purdy unless you’re intentionally punting QB scoring and just fishing for low-odds upside.
