Grading and ranking NFL quarterbacks can be weird. Take Seattle Seahawks QB1 Sam Darnold, for instance. His quarterback rating is just 88.8, 23rd in the NFL, and lower than former Seattle quarterback, Russell Wilson.
But if one takes a trip over to Pro Football Focus (subscription required), Darnold is graded as the third-best quarterback in the league through two games. So is Darnold mediocre or great? The eye tells us that he is pretty solid and is likely going to continue to be.
But what happens if Darnold gets injured? The assumption is that Drew Lock will step in.
