2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Bills likely won't prioritize Murray in their 2023 offense, but they handed him just enough guaranteed money to make his roster spot relatively safe, even as an RB3/4 behind James Cook, Damien Harris and possibly Nyheim Hines. As long as he makes the roster, though, Murray would be surprisingly close to mainstream fantasy relevance. Cook has potential workload limitations due to his light frame, while Harris could have limitations due to recurring hamstring issues. Hines, meanwhile, is just a hurry-up back and returner. The Bills gave Murray more than $800,000 guaranteed on his one-year deal, so they might have targeted him because they specifically wanted someone with his big-back traits to complement the smaller, previously mentioned trio. Murray might also be a better passing-down back than Harris, though likely the lesser runner at this point in their respective careers. Read Past Outlooks

Inks one-year deal with Buffalo

ANALYSIS
Murray provides quality veteran depth for the Bills after the team passed on adding a running back in the 2023 NFL Draft. The 33-year-old averaged 4.4 YPC across 12 games with Denver last season, to the tune of 703 rushing yards and five touchdowns, with Javonte Williams (knee) having gone down early in the year. With Buffalo, he profiles as a depth option behind Damien Harris, James Cook and Nyheim Hines.

Murray's second season in New Orleans was much the same as his first. The veteran back offers a more physical complement to Alvin Kamara's open-field explosiveness, and in that role Murray actually led the league in the percentage of his carries that came on runs between the tackles. Running in traffic hasn't been a hindrance, thanks to the Saints' excellent offensive line, and he's averaged 4.4 yards per carry the last two campaigns. Somewhat surprisingly, only three of his nine touchdowns have come from inside the five-yard line, but the presence of Taysom Hill (in addition to Kamara) may help explain that limited usage at the goal line. Drew Brees' retirement could mean big changes for the Saints offense, but Murray's role doesn't figure to be too much different with Jameis Winston or Hill under center. Per usual, there's no real upside for Murray unless Kamara misses time.
