Executives, coaches and scouts around the NFL consider the Los Angeles Rams' Matthew Stafford the top NFC quarterback heading into the 2024 season, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The surveyed league leaders ranked the Detroit Lions' Jared Goff at No. 2 in the conference, with the Dallas Cowboys' Dak Prescott, San Francisco 49ers' Brock Purdy and Green Bay Packers' Jordan Love rounding out the top five, Fowler said on ESPN's SportsCenter.

The Philadelphia Eagles' Jalen Hurts was not named to the list.

Fowler noted that Stafford and Goff topping the executive, coach and scout rankings indicate that these conference leaders use more than just statistics to value quarterbacks.
