Heading into the 2018 NFL off-season, a # of teams are looking for QBs, & a # of QBs are looking for jobs. I am going to ask questions regarding where you think QBs will end up, & how much you think they will get paid (& in one case, what you think the trade compensation would be).
The game will be scored as follows:
* For pick a team questions, you will get 1 point for every 3 people who enter, rounded to the nearest whole #. So if 20 people enter, & a QB goes to the team you think he will, you get 7 points.
* For contract/trade compensation/draft questions, you will be judged by how far you are from the correct answer in comparison to other people. In the hypothetical where 20 people enter, if you are the closest, you get 20 points. If you are the furthest you get 1 point.
I have given some thought as the best way to judge contracts because it's going to be difficult to make everyone predict all of years/total dollars/guaranteed dollars & then weigh the contracts off 3 separate criteria.
So my choice is going to be avg per year because it's the easiest to think about, even if it isn't necessarily the most relevant weigh to gauge a contract.
* The winner is whoever has the most points at the end.
Enter by PMing me a list of responses prior to Super Bowl kickoff.
If you have any questions, please ask.
Otherwise, here we go:
1) What team will Kirk Cousins play for in 2018?
2) What will the average salary be on Kirk Cousins' next contract?
3) What will the average salary be on Jimmy Garoppolo's next contract?
4) What will the average salary be on Drew Brees' next contract?
5) What team will Alex Smith play for in 2018?
6) What trade compensation will the Chiefs get for him? (give this answer in terms of a draft pick # (for example if you think the Chiefs will get the equivalent of the 1st pick in the draft for him answer "1" & if you think they'll get the equivalent of a 7th rounder put like "230"), I will convert all back & forth compensation using the
Chase Stuart draft value chart. If you don't think he will be traded & that the Chiefs will keep him, say "none". If you say none you will either get max points if correct, or min points if wrong).
7) Will Colin Kaepernick sign with an NFL team? (question only worth max of 3 points)
8) What team will Case Keenum play for in 2018?
9) What will the average salary be on Case Keenum's next contract?
10) What team will Sam Bradford play for in 2018?
11) What will the average salary be on Sam Bradford's next contract?
12) What team will Teddy Bridgewater play for in 2018?
13) What will the average salary be on Teddy Bridgewater's next contract?
14) What team will Tyrod Taylor play for in 2018?

20) What team will draft Josh Rosen?
21) What team will draft Mason Rudolph?
22) What order will Allen/Darnold/Jackson/Mayfield/Rosen/Rudolph be drafted in? (this will be scored as a guesttimania based on the # of positions away from being perfectly correct you are)
Cliff's: PM me a list of what you think will happen, I'll worry about the scoring.
