I think most would agree there's Manning, Brees, Brady, Rodgers.  Then just based on play and/or accomplishments and statistics or whatever, your next group is probably any number of Stafford, Ryan, Rivers, Dalton, Roethlisberger, Flacco, Romo, Luck, Manning, Newton, Wilson, RGIII, Kaepernick, Cutler, Foles.  Or something like that.  I think I'd put him anywhere from 8th to 14th.  So basically if 1st-4th is elite, and 16th is average.  5th-15th is above average. That's a total of 11 quarterbacks that could be considered above average, realistically less since many would consider 14th and 15th as average too.
