GTripp's qualitative QB analysis

Elite quarterbacks: The elite few who are both excellent and would be as good anywhere as they are where they are now.

Peyton Manning, Rivers, Brees, Brady (Brees and Brady are on the fringe).

Franchise Passers: Play at somewhat below an elite level, but would be as good on any team as they are on their current team.

Eli Manning, Matt Ryan (I think), Carson Palmer, Tony Romo, Kurt Warner and Chad Pennington were here.

Top System Related Performers: these guys are top performers who probably wouldn't be if you took them off their current rosters. They are a big part of their teams success, but not much by themselves (Marc Bulger/Matt Hasselbeck used to be this player). [This is where Sam Bradford projects]

Old-man Brett Favre, Matt Schaub, Ben Roethlisberger, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Flacco, Jake Delhomme used to be here.

Flawed players who are productive: You could make an argument for all of these guys as franchise quarterbacks, but every one of their teams has at least entertained the notion of going in a different direction. Difference between this category and the above isn't skill, it's context.

Donovan McNabb, Jason Campbell, David Garrard, Vince Young, Jay Cutler, Trent Edwards, Chad Henne (maybe?), Kyle Orton

Players who have no meaningful history of success, but offer plenty of speculative value

Matt Leinart, Brady Quinn, Matt Stafford, Mark Sanchez, Josh Freeman, Charlie Whitehurst, Dan Orlovsky, Nate Davis, Matt Moore, the tattered remains of Tim Rattay from 2006

Players who have failed early in their careers, but might have a second act (though unlikely)

Bruce Gradkowski, David Carr, Derek Anderson, SexyRexy Grossman, Tarvaris Jackson, Byron Leftwich (probably out of place here, but can't force him into McNabb/Campbell category), and Alex Smith's mother wants me to put him here

Valueless players of various sorts:

Matt Hasselbeck, Marc Bulger, JaMarcus Russell, Matt Cassel, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Kyle Boller, Kerry Collins, Drew Henson, Drew Stanton, Jon Kitna, JT O'Sullivan

QB Grab Bag (have no current or future value, but could possibly get some with some investment):

Mark Brunell, Patrick Ramsey, Daunte Culpepper, Jim Sorgi, Gus freakin Frerotte, Charlie Frye, Chris Redman, Tyler Thigpen, Shaun Hill, Josh Johnson, Seneca Wallace
