Being top 10 doesn't mean that much to me. Especially when there is a huge gap between that tier 1 and tier 2 in terms of talent and being game changers.
Tier 1
Aaron Rodgers
Drew Brees
Tom Brady
Phillip Rivers
Matt Ryan
These are the only QBs I would pay that upper echelon money for. I don't give a fuck what the market calls for. These QBs can carry a team if they have to or called upon. Most other QBs cannot and have not. This tier 1 list are absolutely game changers and that's why you pay them 28-30+mil a year. I'd rather pay 23 mil/yr for a game changer like Aaron Donald/Kahlil Mack than 23mil for a game manager like Alex Smith. You are better off putting resources into the OL/DL/etc and rolling with a guy like McCoy than overpaying for a guy who's average (or slightly above) at his position.
