| Name | Pos | Team | Age | Yrs Exp. |
Pos. Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jared Goff | QB | LAR | 24 | 3 | QB - #14 |
| Fair Evaluation: Los Angeles has pass-catching talent at RB, WR, and TE, which invites follow through in 2019. His next step is 5,000+ yards with a run at 40+ TDs. His upside is tied to the health of Todd Gurley and the recovery of Cooper Kupp.
After starting his career with an 0-7 record, Goff developed into a top tier QB over the last two seasons leading ... Read More | |||||
| Tom Brady | QB | NE | 42 | 19 | QB - #15 |
| The career record of Brady is just dazzling. He's won 10 or more games in 16 of 17 full seasons, which includes an 11-1 record in 2016 when he missed four games. His only year with fewer than ten wins came in 2002 when he went 9-7. Tom ranks 4th all-time in passing yards (70,514) with Peyton Manning(71,940) and Brett Favre (71,838)... Read More | |||||
| Philip Rivers | QB | LAC | 37 | 15 | QB - #18 |

| Carson Wentz | QB | PHI | 26 | 3 | QB - #7 |
| Over the last two seasons covering 24 games, Wentz has 54 TDs and 14 Ints, which is an attractive ratio for a winning time. He set a career high in his completion rate (69.8) in 2018 while being on paces for the most passing yards of his career (279 yards per game). Carson passed for over 300 yards in five contests, and he had three TDs in three games. Even with g... Read More | |||||
| Russell Wilson | QB | SEA | 30 | 7 | QB - #8 |
| Fair Evaluation: I view him as a top-five QB this year while being slightly undervalued on draft day.
In 2017, Wilson was the best QB in the land. His top ranking came via a rebound in his value in the run game (95/586/3) while matching his career high in passing TDs (34). Last year Russell saw his pass attempts fall by about 23 percent (427 – 553), b... Read More | |||||
