He also captures the relative value of starters on both sides of the ball for every wild-card team using a color scale, adding the approximate number of points a select few are worth to the spread. We've outlined those in order of this round's matchups below the ranking of quarterback values.
Note: Each player's value is relative to their worth to their team, the depth behind them, and other context-rich situations.
