We are entering one of the best times on the football calendar: training camps. But this also means that you are likely preparing for your home league’s fantasy football draft, which is almost as beloved as the start of camp. We spend all this time researching, looking at rankings, and trying to decide the roster we want to target for week one. While Justin Jefferson is always a target, are there any late-round fliers worth taking?Alex Kay of Bleacher Report went over ideal late-round quarterbacks to target in fantasy football drafts for 2026 and listed Kyler Murray at the top of the list. Murray currently sits as QB17 with an ADP of 112. Here is part of what Kay had to say:At his best, Murray is a dynamic dual-threat weapon who can dissect defenses with his arm and rack up yardage and scores with his legs. He boasts a career 67.1 percent completion rate with 20,460 yards and 121 touchdowns through the air in 87 contests. Murray’s scrambling ability is what truly separates him in fantasy football, as he’s picked up 400-plus rushing yards and scored at least five touchdowns on the ground in each of the four seasons he missed three or fewer games during.Although he’s only being drafted as a backup in most leagues, Murray will have a legitimate shot at putting together his best season yet. He’ll be working under a renowned quarterback whisperer in Kevin O’Connell while playing alongside some of the league’s top pass-catching weapons such as Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and Jauan Jennings.Yes, Murray is likely not going to be anyone’s first quarterback taken. However, if you are in a 2QB league or playing with SuperFlex, Murray is a very good flier to take. He is surrounded by the most talented he has had, with the best offensive line and coaching staff to support him. If there was a time to find the old Murray, it’s this year with the Minnesota Vikings.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThis article originally appeared on Vikings Wire: Vikings QB named among those who could be a value in fantasy
