Andy Dalton is a good NFL quarterback Michael Jordan Jersey 2019 , but at what point should a team decide that good is not good enough?"In the last 16 years Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Drew Brees, and Aaron Rodgers have combined to win 13 Super Bowls. All 6 players are sure-fire Hall of Famers, The other 3 Super Bowl winning quarterbacks in that time frame were Joe Flacco, Russell Wilson, and Nick Foles. All had great defenses and none repeated as champions. It is hard to win the big game without an elite trigger man, just ask the Bengals. Andy Dalton has been the man under center for Cincinnati since 2011 and while he has led the team to the playoffs, Dalton’s success has been largely dependent on what is around him. Dalton is capable of winning a Super Bowl if all other conditions are right, but he is not a quarterback who will make a team a serious contender year in and year out. Even with all the success he has had in Cincinnati, they should always be looking for that guy.So, when is the right time to upgrade at the quarterback position?The answer to this question is simple: As soon as possible. Teams must be constantly looking to improve and this means seeking to upgrade at every position. The key is being right. If the Bengals see a franchise changing quarterback in this draft, they must move heaven and earth to get him. That is what the Kansas City Chiefs did with Patrick Mahomes. They saw him and moved up in the draft to get him, giving up a first round pick the next year to do it. That team was fine with Alex Smith at quarterback. He had taken them to the playoffs and likely would again, but Mahomes was a difference maker whose transcendent talent took the Chiefs to the next level in 2018. Sure they could have built around Smith, but they would have been depending on a lot more people and would not have had that one play maker to put them over the hump.As I said though, you better be right. The Arizona Cardinals are rumored to be moving on from Josh Rosen after only one season. If so it would be an oddity. In most cases drafting a first round quarterback is a commitment. Even if the player isn’t expected to start in year one, they will likely get the nod in year two. That was the case with Mahomes and Lamar Jackson. Both were drafted to teams with establish, but not world-beating quarterbacks, and in both cases, those established quarterbacks were sent packing a year later.So let’s say the Bengals made a move on a quarterback in Round 1, and they were wrong. A few things could happen. First Michael Jordan Jersey Womens , they may realize in his rookie season that he is not going to surpass Dalton immediately. So they don’t trade Dalton and their draftee continues to ride the pine. Dalton is now likely getting disgruntled, but his career with the team has actually been extended, That is because the team will not look to draft a quarterback high in 2020 because they are invested in their 2019 first round pick as the future of their franchise (again Arizona could potentially be an exception). So now they missed on a QB in the 2019 Draft and missed out on a QB in the 2020 Draft. So should they make a move and draft a quarterback in the 2019. Yes, if...Yes, if they have identified a franchise changing quarterback. If they think the can get in a position to draft Oklahoma’s Kyler Murray, Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins, or Missouri’s Drew Lock and they think that is the guy who will make this franchise a Super Bowl contender, than they absolutely have to do it even if that means giving up heavy draft capital over the next two years.If they don’t identify one of those three as that transcendent franchise altering player, then they should wait. They may look to take a quarterback later in the draft and possibly move up to get him. Buffalo’s Tyree Jackson, West Virginia’s Will Grier, and Boise State’s Brett Rypien. Maybe they believe one of these guys could be that transcendent player, but even if they don’t it is okay to take a flier on a guy after Round 1. Spending a 2nd or 3rd Round pick on one of these guys wouldn’t prevent them from entering the Tua Tagovailoa sweepstakes in 2020.So when is the right time to upgrade at quarterback? When you know you can. The NFL’s 100th season is about to begin.Every fantasy football team is 0-0, filled with optimism about the teams they’ve drafted. Daily fantasy players are peering through every stat in hopes of being the next big-money winner at one of the popular sites.The new season is just about here, but the Week 1 Start/Sit begins now.START: Russell Wilson, QB, Seahawks: Wilson begins the season at home against a Bengals team that ranked 29th in fantasy points allowed per game to opposing quarterbacks. The addition of rookie WR D.K. Metcalf gives Wilson an ideal option when he chooses to dial it up. Wilson was second in the league with a 46.7% completion rate when throwing the deep ball.SIT: Matt Ryan, QB, Falcons: Atlanta worked hard in the offseason to upgrade an offensive line that ranked 25th in protection rate. Ryan was sacked 42 times last season and opens the season on the road against a Vikings defense that finished third in fantasy points allowed to opposing passers.START: Kerryon Johnson, RB, Lions: The second-year pro, considered a potential fantasy breakout, opens the season against the worst run defense in fantasy football. Opposing teams averaged 136.4 yards and 1.3 touchdowns per game in 2018 against Arizona, along with a near 80% completion rate allowed to running backs.SIT: Duke Johnson, RB Youth Michael Jordan Jersey , Texans: Carlos Hyde will cut into his carries, plus the Saints were fourth in fewest fantasy points allowed per game to opposing backs, giving up just 17.15 per game. Despite leading the league with 7.1 yards per touch last season, Johnson will be limited behind a Texans line that remains suspect even with the addition of LT Laremy Tunsil from the Dolphins last weekend.START: Dede Westbrook, WR, Jaguars: No team allowed more receiving yards last season than the Chiefs. Westbrook accounted for 27.1% of the team’s receiving yards and touchdowns in 2018, a number that could zoom up with the addition of quarterback Nick Foles. The third-year wideout is primed for a huge season, and facing KC‘s secondary is a splendid springboard to begin on.SIT: Curtis Samuel, WR, Panthers: A popular mid-round selection in most fantasy drafts, Samuel will likely be shadowed by Rams CB Aqib Talib. Opposing quarterbacks managed a 53.8 rating when throwing against Talib last season. Despite being 34, Talib can still make life miserable for receivers.START: Evan Engram, TE, Giants: Engram averaged 80 yards per game in the final four weeks of 2018 and will see his target share of 16.9% climb up now that he will be featured in the offense. The Cowboys will have fits containing Engram once he has the ball, as he ranked third among all TEs with 377 yards after the catch.SIT: David Njoku, TE, Browns: Only Jarvis Landry had a higher team target share than Njoku’s 16.9% last season, but Njkou had a disappointing 63.6% catch rate and was nearly invisible (inside the red zone with only eight targets). Not only does Njkou have to contend with a Titans defense that ranked third in fewest fantasy points per game to opposing TEs, but he also has to jockey for targets now that Odell Beckham Jr. is in the lineup.START: Courtland Sutton, WR, Broncos: Sutton has good upside as a possible WR3/Flex going against a Raiders defense that allowed 30.26 fantasy points per game to opposing receivers last season. His 16.8 yards per catch ranked 11th among receivers, yet what makes Sutton intriguing is that only seven other receivers had a higher end zone target rate than Sutton’s 39.8% last season. Entering his second season, Sutton has the potential to help quarterback Joe Flacco along with becoming a go-to target in Denver’s passing game.SIT: Dak Prescott, QB White Michael Jordan Jersey , Cowboys: Any hopes of Prescott becoming more pass happy ended early Wednesday morning when RB Ezekiel Elliott agreed on a six-year, $90 million contract extension. The Cowboys were just 19th in pass plays (36.4 per game) last season, and that number will likely hold up now that Dallas now has its workhorse in the backfield.START: Case Keenum, QB, Redskins: For all the Super Bowl hype surrounding the Eagles, the same secondary that ranked 30th in fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers returns. Keenum will likely be playing catch-up, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he went north of 40 passes, which means he could rack up a solid yardage total along with a couple of touchdowns.SIT: Kallen Ballage, RB: Dolphins: The second-year back has potential but must deal with a Ravens defense that was second only to the Bears in fewest fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Ballage will have to share touches with Kenyan Drake, plus he’s a strong candidate for having the defensive line stacked. Defenses averaged 6.3 players at the line when Ballage was in the backfield last season, and with a mediocre passing game, Ballage’s “flex” appeal is greatly stunted.START: Jared Cook, TE, Saints: The Texans were 31st in fantasy points per game allowed to opposing TEs, and with much of their focus going to RB Alvin Kamara and WR Michael Thomas, Cook, who finished fifth among TEs in fantasy points per game last season, should thrive in the middle of the field and in the red zone.SIT: Tyler Boyd, WR, Bengals: Boyd is now the WR1 in Cincinnati now that A.J. Green is out for an extended period. The Seahawks were a modest 17th in pass defense last season, but were 10th in fewest fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. If Andy Dalton is struggling, that means Boyd is as well.
