Don't think I could really disagree with that top 15 as a whole, but if that is the actual ranking I am curious. Do tell about Marino, for example. I love seeing Tarkenton, Anderson and Unitas in there. I actually have some graded Unitas rookie cards. Also do tell about Warner. I could see him slipping into the 10-15 range. And lastly, do tell about Bradshaw.

I can see why you have Brees where he is at this early point in his career, however.

Edit: Perhaps do rings come into play?
