Guys like Fitzpatrick, Hoyer and Bradford find jobs every year because there just aren't enough good starters to go around. Even the biggest Dalton bashers should admit that Dalton is better than those guys. Barring injury or a sudden change, the likelihood of there being 32 better QB's than Dalton is slim to none.
Some of these rookie QB's will bust. Guys like Peyton, Brady and Brees will retire. Dalton will have plenty of suitors if we move on from him.
Agreed. By my mind there are teams that would take Dalton now:
BUF
NYJ
CLE
HOU
WAS
STL
and then there are teams that are going to be down a starter in the next few years
DEN
SD (if Rivers does want to move on)
KC (how long can they really stick with Alex Smith?)
PHI (if Bradford is a bust as a trade)
CHI
STL
AZ
I wouldn't say Dalton is a slam-dunk for any of these teams but there are going to be opportunities his resume would afford him. Again, Dave Kreig was a half-starter for almost 2 decades so Dalton could likely stretch his career if he wants.
