Top 10 Free Agents at Each Position: QB

Hi, I am starting a blog series over the next few weeks where I will rank my top 10 players hitting free agency this off-season in every position. Hope you enjoy. I will say the players former team next to their name. This time its QB. Some quick news is the Dolphins franchise tag WR Jarvis Landry and Buccaneers release RB Doug Martin. Also make sure and check out my last post and vote! Here it is:

1. Kirk Cousins, Redskins:
Cousins is finally going to hit the open market and generate some serious buzz. We've never seen a QB this good hit FA. Kirk Cousins is likely going to come out as the highest paid player in NFL history and his new team will be elated. Cousins is young and in his prime and can lead a team in the playoffs. The Jets are willing to do WHATEVER it takes to sign Cousins which likely means he's going to New York. Likely
Landing Spots: Jets, Browns, Broncos, Vikings

2. Drew Brees, Saints
Brees will likely get re-signed by the Saints before he hits the open market but for some reason if he does hit the open market, he should be able to get a short term, big money type of deal with a team a good QB away from the playoffs. Brees is up there in age but still performs at an MVP level and lead the Saints to an amazing playoff year.
Likely Landing Spots: Saints, Browns, Broncos

3. Teddy Bridgewater, Vikings
Who knows what the Vikes will do with their 3 starting quality QBs all hitting FA. Bridgewater seems to have the brightest future of the 3. Viewed as their franchise QB, Bridgewater went down with a almost career ending ACL tear but has comeback from it and since has not really seen the field. We don't know how Teddy B will play after injury but a team will love to take him on a big deal if the Vikings don't.
Likely Landing Spots: Vikings, Browns, Bills, Cardinals

4. Case Keenum, Vikings
Another one of the 3 Vikings QBs, Keenum was the starter this past year and did an amazing job. He broke out and had an MVP candidate year. The Vikings made it to the NFC championship with him at the helm and he looked unstoppable. Keenum may not be re-signed by the Vikings but if he does, expect him to perform more at a high level.
Likely Landing Spots: Vikings, Browns, Cardinals

5. A.J. McCaron, Bengals
McCaron played for an injured Andy Dalton a few years ago and he played well. He's still young and has been generating hype since. The Browns attempted a trade for him at the trade deadline and it failed. I can see the 3 time college National Championship winner getting a 1 or 2 year, 10+ million dollar deal as a try for a team before a long term deal. I can see him as a bridge type QB for the Browns. There will be demand for him this off-season.
Likely Landing Spots: Browns, Cardinals, Bills

6. Sam Bradford, Vikings
Bradford has almost no chance of going back to the Vikings. He's the oldest and worst of the 3 in Minnesota. Bradford is still a starter quality player in this league but there is not much demand for him. Bradford will likely get a small deal from a team that needs a win now starter and replace him in a year or 2.
Likely landing spots: Cardinals, Bills, Vikings

7. Josh McCown, Jets
Now we get to the not really starter quality players. McCown is 38 years old and only getting older. His career is winding down but surprisingly he had a great season last year starting for the Jets. That could give him some nice offers on the market. His next team will likely be his last as he will not be able to play much longer. McCown was a great player last year and could be a bridge QB for a team or a mentor to a young QB.
Likely Landing Spots: Browns, Cardinals, Jets

8. Colin Kaepernick, 49ers
Kap has not been on the Niners or on any team for a whole season but still remains a great QB on the market. Sure he is controversial but a team should give him a chance. Kap has had some amazing years and is still young. On his last stint with the Niners starting, he looked pretty good but has been blackballed since. I hope Kap gets a deal and proves to a team he is still a great QB. I think Jon Gruden's Raiders are gutsy enough to give him a chance and maybe he outplays Derek Carr coming off a bad year and plays some games for the Raiders. Kap should be signed.
Likely Landing Spots (IF ANY): Raiders, Seahawks, Panthers


9. Matt Moore, Dolphins
Over the past few years, Moore has played multiple games and done a decent job. Moore at times looked pretty good and could be an AJ McCaron type of QB. Then there were times he looked no good. Moore could go on a small deal to a team and serve as a backup or a week 1 starter before a young QB comes in. Moore's age is getting up there.
Likely Landing Spots: Any team in the market for a backup

10. Chase Daniel, Saints
Daniel is now getting up there in age at 31 but still could have a few decent years left. Daniel has been a longtime backup QB in this league and hasn't had much of a starting chance and I think he could actually start a few games for a team with a young learning QB. Daniel will be a great pickup at backup QB for a team who picks him up and I think he could have Case Keenum like success in the right situation.
Likely Landing Spots: Any team in the market for a backup QB
