Overall Outlook
Murray finished 2020 as the QB2 which came to the surprise as many. In the age of running quarterbacks, there aren’t much better than Murray. His ability to make plays with his arm and feet gives him as high a floor as any quarterback in the league. Murray showed growth from his rookie campaign to his sophomore season. Adding Hopkins via trade will help any young quarterback find success. Outside of adding Nuk, the Cardinals have had some issues at the WR position. Thankfully, the Cardinals have added help at WR through free agency and the draft. AJ Green was signed through free agency and the team used a second-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on playmaker, Rondale Moore.
Looking into the 2021 season with a new look receiving core, Murray will again find success. He will be able to spread the ball around more to his wideouts and count a little less on his legs to make plays. This will lead to some regression on his rushing numbers but nothing to worry about. It’s hard to repeat eleven scores on the ground anyway. Murray is still being drafted around QB6 in most places so there’s some value if he falls to you a little later in a draft.
