I'd like to think I'm pretty rational on things, so here it goes:
1. I think Dalton is a guy who falls in the 10-18 range. He's right on the cusp of being a top 10 guy IF he has a good line and a good surrounding cast. Without it, he's basically a good to average QB.
2. I think the value of Dalton goes down each year as he gets older. I a lot of these "rankings" tend to favor upside. Dalton has very little upside, if any, from where he is at as a QB. You pretty much know what you are getting with him.
3. Knowing what you are getting also helps his value a little bit. You won't get a bust if you trade for him, but you also aren't getting a top 5 talent.
That being said, you wouldn't get much for him now, simply because the QB market it set. Most, if not all, of the teams in the league have either a set starter or have positioned themselves in the draft to add one. If a team is looking at him in the offseason you would probably get a first rounder for him. If a team is desperate because of injury, you could get more.
