Quarterback
Brock Purdy: Purdy stayed productive again on Saturday, completing 15-of-22 passes for 234 yards (10.6 Y/A) with two more touchdown passes. He is the first quarterback to throw multiple passing touchdown in each of his first three starts since Marcus Mariota in 2015 while he is the first quarterback ever to do that while also throwing for 8.0 yards per pass attempt in each game.
Purdy now has thrown multiple touchdown passes in each of the past four weeks. Over that span, he is sixth in the league in yards per pass attempt (7.9 Y/A) and leads a quarterbacks in passing points per attempt (0.543). He has only been a fantasy QB1 in one of those games, but has closed those weeks as the QB6, QB14, and QB13.
Purdy has been forced to live on efficiency, which is always fragile, but he runs into another good spot this week to keep going back to him as a streamer and fringe QB1. The Raiders are the softest pass defense he has faced to date, allowing 0.446 passing points per attempt (29th) despite facing Baker Mayfield, Mac Jones, and Kenny Pickett the past three weeks.
