Which NFL quarterbacks deserve to be paid the most? Colin Cowherd picks his top 10

What factors should an NFL general manager consider before dishing out a ton of money to a quarterback?

According to The Herd’s Colin Cowherd, there are only a few important ones — wins, production, health and the QB’s ability to elevate others. 

On Tuesday, Cowherd dished out his most valuable QB list, placing 10 NFL QBs in three tiers, with the top spot awarded to who he feels deserves to be paid the most.

Check out Cowherd’s full list below starting with No. 10 and his thoughts on each!

Tier 3 – Rising stars

10. Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville Jaguars

Cowherd’s thoughts: “I worry about the turnovers, but he was the best high school and college quarterback, and he got this team a playoff win throughout dysfunction. … Back-to-back 4000-yard passing seasons [and] this is his best roster yet. [He’s] tall, [has a] good arm, good mobility.”

9. Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers

Cowherd’s thoughts: “Week 10 on, behind a young o-line and the youngest group of receivers and tight ends, was the best statistical quarterback in the league. I know it’s only eight weeks. But what I saw in those eight weeks was a guy that walked into Dallas and was significantly more accurate, more athletic and more poised than Dak Prescott.”

8. C.J. Stroud, Houston Texans

Cowherd’s thoughts: “I know it’s one year [but] the kid’s accuracy, poise and ball placement is insane. First player in league history with over 4,000 yards passing, and a passer rating over 100 as a rookie. I don’t think he’s got a lot of mobility. His comp was always Goff, but he’s got more than Jared. The kid had a remarkable rookie year.”

7. Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers

Cowherd’s thoughts: “The first quarterback in league history to begin his career — without much support on the o-line — with three-straight 4,000-yard passing seasons.”
