Hello. Happy Three Day Weekend, if you're lucky enough to be off tomorrow.




With the official start of free agency less than three weeks away, let’s take a look at the most important, coveted position in the sport. Keep in mind, this list does not include possible trade targets, such as Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, and Deshaun Watson.



Tier 1 – Elite

N/A

Yeah, no Tom Brady or Peyton Manning this year. Sorry.



Tier 2 – Starter/Potential Starter

Jameis Winston
Marcus Mariota
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Teddy Bridgewater

Winston and Mariota, the #1 and #2 overall selections of the 2015 draft, are now the concensus Options A/B on the free agent market. Fitzpatrick was widely regarded as the best “bridge QB” a year ago, but his stock is down after missing a full season due to injury. Teddy Bridgewater’s extensive, sometimes successful experience as a starter – Mariota is the only other player on this list to start a playoff game – pushes him into this echelon, but his physical limitations are plainly obvious by now.


Tier 3 – Backup/Rotational Player

Mitch Trubisky
Andy Dalton
Tyrod Taylor
Jacoby Brissett
Cam Newton
Chad Henne
Colt McCoy
Chase Daniel
Geno Smith
Trevor Siemien

Trubisky might have enough on his resume to warrant “potential starter” status, but for now, this is his appropriate plateau. He seems like a logical fit for the Giants, who just hired his Buffalo coordinator, Brian Daboll. New York has shown faith in Daniel Jones, but Trubisky may offer some sneaky competition/insurance.

I don't see why that would happen, especially with his younger counterpart still under contract.
 
Mariota is the best available but his time in Oakland made everyone forget he gets hurt all the time.


Teddy is the best choice for a solid but limited guy but that bridge might have been burnt down forever by the rush to get Darnold. New Orleans will probably welcome him back for the same pilot the trashfire job we have here but with competent offensive minds.



I guess it depends on how it shakes out in the mountains but drew lock is the same high/ lows you get with Winston with less baggage and more "upside" for everyone to bite on. Too bad that would take a trade.
 
Yeah, defensive minded coaches still like the QBs like Bridgewater, so I could see him being Dennis Allen's guy.
 
Ranked in tears would be ‘more better’ as my buddy from India says.
