I meant to get to this piece from CBS Sports’ Jason La Canfora when it dropped last week, but yanno. Stuff.
I find it really interesting, because JLC organized all 32 projected starting QBs into seven tiers:
- Bona fide franchise quarterbacks
- Top pros, proven winners
- Rising stars
- You can win with them
- Guys, veterans and place holders
- Good luck
Now, those tiers aren’t necessarily in a direct hierarchy. I’m not sure that his seventh tier is the worst. But I like that he has a way of categorizing different QBs in different situations.
