San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has agreed to a massive extension with the organization on Friday. The two sides have agreed to a five-year, $265 million deal, which includes $181 million in guaranteed money. The 2022 Mr. Irrelevant gets his big payday with $165.1 million coming his way in the first three years of the deal. Purdy saw his numbers take a dip in 2024, but that was partly due to the 49ers dealing with so many injuries. He still threw for 3,864 passing yards with 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 15 games with the 49ers last season. The 25-year-old should bounce back in 2025 with a healthy team around him. This seems like a bit of an overpay by the 49ers, but that is the cost of keeping a top tier quarterback in the NFL these days.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud said he'll be "taking full ownership, running the show" in new offensive coordinator Nick Calley's system and appreciates how Calley is already putting trust in him. Stroud didn't look at all like a rookie in 2023 under previous offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, but he came back down to Earth a bit in 2024 in his sophomore campaign and finished as the QB17 in fantasy while throwing for 3,727 yards, 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 17 regular-season games. Protection was the biggest issue, as the former second overall pick took a whopping 52 sacks in 2024 after being sacked 38 times in 15 regular-season games as a rookie. Stroud could be more effective again with more control of the offense, particularly before the snap, leaving him as a fine midrange QB1 bounce-back target in fantasy.
