Quarterback spinning

Lots happening with quarterbacks in the NFL.

We are in the final week of the 2015-16 football calendar. The official calendar resets on March.

That’s why there were a slew of moves this week involving players and franchise or transition tags. (Those are designations by clubs that give players approaching free agency a one-year deal worth the average salaries of the top three (franchise) or five (transition) players at their position. those tags also offer different draft-pick packages as compensation if another team signs them.)

We talk often here about the value of quarterback play, and its relative worth from teams.
