What I used to evaluate the players were four categories. Adjusted yards more or less measures the overall output of the player (this […]
As a weekly feature I’ll be assigning values based on a statistics based formula to every quarterback in the NFL.

Doing so will allow for meaningful valuation of the contracts, enabling useful comparison between, for example, Maclin v. Cobb, Maxwell v. Jackson, Suh v. Watt, etc. However, the numbers for most of the newly-signed contracts […]
