Matthew Stafford's trade reshapes NFL dynamics. His move to the Los Angeles Rams opens the floodgates for QB trades, shifting perspectives on player value. Deshaun Watson, Aaron Rodgers, and Russell Wilson follow suit, while last year’s Geno Smith deal surprises all.
Now, teams assess their starting quarterbacks’ trade value.
The Miami Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa and New York Jets' Justin Fields sit at the bottom, both with contracts that deter offers. The Pittsburgh Steelers' Will Howard lacks appeal after a quiet rookie season. Shedeur Sanders of the Cleveland Browns may draw a seventh-round pick, while the Arizona Cardinals’ Jacoby Brissett, despite being QB1, holds fifth-round value.
Minnesota Vikings’ J.J. McCarthy and Atlanta Falcons’ Michael Penix face similar uncertainty. Daniel Jones of the Indianapolis Colts, recovering from injury, might fetch a fourth-round pick. New Orleans Saints' Tyler Shough shows promise but requires a top-half first-rounder for potential trade discussions.
