Matt Moore (2011)
Kevin Kolb (2011)
Tarvaris Jackson (2011)
Colt McCoy (2011)
Tim Tebow (2011)
John Skelton (2011)
Curtis Painter (2011)
Jake Locker (2012)
Kellen Clemens (2013)
EJ Manuel (2013)
Jason Campbell (2013)
Terrelle Pryor (2013)
Austin Davis (2014)
Shaun Hill (2014)
Drew Stanton (2014)
Jacoby Brissett (2017)
Brett Hundley (2017)
CJ Beathard (2017)
Deshone Kizer (2017)
Baker Mayfield (2018)
Nick Mullens (2018)
Sam Darnold (2018)
Josh Allen (2018)
Josh Rosen (2018)

That right there is 24 QB's you're cutting out, almost all of which would be behind Dalton in passer rating.

Setting the bar at 2,500 yards (a minimum amount for a QB in any season where they are the #1 starter), 72 QBs qualify. 

Dalton is 25th out of 75. 

Garopollo and Mayfield jumped on the list ahead of him. 



Maybe i'm misreading it...but i'm kind of confused why you need to have guys that started one year--or couldn't manage even 5,000 passing yards in their career--ranked with Dalton who has played 8 and has almost 30,000 passing yards.
