I think it would depend on the time frame.
This season alone, I'd rather have Brady, Rodgers, Smith, Brees, Newton, Stafford, Winston, Wilson, and Ryan. Probably Cousins, Wentz, and Carr as well. I'd seriously consider Prescott, Watson, Goff and Manning. NOT Rivers, Palmer, Roethlisberger, or Flacco, as I'm not sure those guys will even make it through the season.
If you're talking over the next four years (when Dalton's contract expires), the list changes a bit. I'd prefer Rodgers, Stafford, Ryan, Wentz, Goff, and Luck. I'd have to think about Wilson (lacking certain skills, but great intangibles); Newton/Mariota/Carr (injury risk), Winston (ingrained flaws) and Prescott/Watson (league is catching up to Prescott and may well do the same for Watson), but I'd probably have to roll the dice with them. I think Brady and Brees retire this year or next, Manning too; Smith is just having a good year; and Cousins equals Dalton (Dalton's just having a worse year).
