The hawks got what Russell is pretty-much worth, figuring he's now probably the 5th or 6th best QB - based on his last two years.
That's how I felt about a bunch of Steelers players that bailed. The voodoo came out to wish harm to them and their teams.

Shame though, as even though he's 33 he's likely got a bunch of good seasons left, It's now whether or not the Broncos will have the coaching - and also to surround him with good receivers, a great line to protect him & of course a good accompanying defense. One player won't do it, needs to be a complete package.

As far as rankings?

Brady & Roethlisberger out of the picture now, wherever folks may have ranked them...

The rest?

Aaron Rodgers
Josh Allen
Patrick Mahomes
Justin Herbert
Lamar Jackson
Kyler Murray
Dak Prescott
Kirk Cousins
Deshaun Watson (Btw, Rumor has it that the Steelers may - "may" be in process of trying to sign him)
Russell Wilson

That's my legit list before getting to Wilson. This has him around 10th. There are SO many factors to take into account in ranking them and I also think that the beginning group of the top 10 to top 15 are all quite close and can swap around easily.

Deshaun Watson was ranked officially as 4th last year but myself I wouldn't have ranked him there. BUT, if the Steelers might be signing him, then of course he deserves top billing over Wilson.
