We have reached the final list of positional rankings for the summer.
And perhaps the toughest list to put together.
If I told you that I actually lost sleep putting this list together, would you believe me? Long-time followers of the work probably would. I consulted with others in the media space, watched and rewatched all the quarterbacks from last season, and even consulted with my two cats about the list.
Sunny and Rosie offered absolutely no help.
However, my editors are telling me it is time to push the big blue publish button. So without further ado, here are the NFL’s top 12 quarterbacks.
You will note that Deshaun Watson is not on this list. Watson is coming off a year where he did not play a snap, and we anticipate a suspension will be handed down shortly from retired judge Sue L. Robinson. If Watson plays this season, perhaps he fill find himself on next year’s version of this list.
If you have missed any of our player lists, leading up to our lists of the 101 best players in the NFL today (coming soon!), you can see them all here:
