What happened: Jared Goff places fifth, followed by Jordan Love and Josh Allen. Lamar Jackson, Brock Purdy and Dak Prescott sit outside the first seven.

Why it matters: The order gives Maye and Darnold prominent placement entering the 2026 preseason. Burrow, Goff, Love and Allen all trail them in the league's upper quarterback tier.

What to watch: Preseason usage and performance will provide the next comparison before the regular season.
