Top 5 Free Agent Quarterbacks For 2015

Mark Sanchez

1. Mark Sanchez

Well, this isn’t exactly the best crop of free-agent quarterbacks if Sanchez is headlining the list. The former No. 5 overall pick had a rocky season in Philadelphia, being thrust into the starting role once Nick Foles went down due to injury.

In eight starts, Sanchez went 4-4, completing 64 percent of his passes for 2,418 yards, 14 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Early on, Sanchez thrived in Chip Kelly’s quarterback-proof offense, but struggled against the league’s elite defenses such as Green Bay, Seattle and Dallas.

The Eagles’ system certainly helped Sanchez step into a new light, but the inconsistency issues that plagued him with the Jets again reared their head. At 28, some team may still think they can help him reach his potential.
