The original content and analysis produced by the PFR staff during the past seven days:
- With the draft now in the rearview mirror, Ryan Posner asked PFR readers which rookie quarterback will log the most playing time in 2018. Given that five signal-callers came off the board in the first round, a number of rookies figure to see significant snaps during the upcoming campaign. But the Jets’ Sam Darnold is currently leading the results with roughly a third of the vote, with Josh Rosen (Cardinals) and Josh Allen (Bills) trailing just behind.
- Rookies are only part of the quarterback equation, as many clubs addressed their weakness under center through the free agent market. With that in mind, Sam Robinson asked PFR readers which team best attacked the quarterback position this offseason. So far, the Vikings — who signed Kirk Cousins to a fully guaranteed three-year deal and acquired Trevor Siemian from the Broncos — are taking the cake with 29% of the vote.
- Dez Bryant hasn’t garnered any concrete interest since being released by the Cowboys last month, and it’s unclear if the former Dallas star will land a contract any time soon. In our latest Community Tailgate post, Rory Parks asked PFR readers where Bryant will play next season, noting potential destinations such as the Packers and Bills.
- In a pair of This Date in Transactions History posts, Ben Levine examined both the Bruce Irvin‘s 2012 suspension and the Patriots’ decision to sign Malcolm Butler as an undrafted free agent in 2014. Irvin’s ban led the Seahawks to sign both Cliff Avril and Michael Bennett, while Butler’s signing paid off immensely (until his untimely benching in this year’s Super Bowl).
