After crunching some numbers, I was curious to see if spending X amount of money on a QB was worth it. For instance Mitchel Reece at $40,148748? No his value isn't worth it.
I averaged all existing QB's Cap Cost and split it by their future rating, average yards and average TD. Next I broke them into 4 different levels and this is what I got: Hope you like!

This is just the top 32. If you want to know the value of a different QB let me know. They are not on my list if they are free agent, but I am sure I could use my formula to guess.
