Andy Dalton
Team: Cincinnati Bengals
2009 ranking: Not in league
Current ranking: Mostly good (This group has guys who have elite ability but aren't quite there yet based on age, health or recent issues)
Dilfer's comment: "He could become a star, and his supporting cast will only improve."
Hensley's comment: Dalton's immediate success allowed the Bengals to trade away Carson Palmer without any regrets.
Colt McCoy
Team: Cleveland Browns
2009 ranking: Not in league
Current ranking: Short leash (Guys who may begin 2012 as starters but have no guarantee to last without improved performance)
Dilfer's comment: "I believe in McCoy but am not sure he has a great chance to succeed there."
Hensley's comment: It's a vote of no confidence when the team chooses to hold a competition for the starting job.
Joe Flacco
Team: Baltimore Ravens
2009 ranking: Knocking at the door
Current ranking: A ring away (Most display a solid career trajectory and have proved themselves as winners, if not title winners)
Dilfer's comment: "He played well enough to get his team to the Super Bowl this year."
Hensley's comment: Flacco's supporting cast has let him down the past two postseasons with drops (Anquan Boldin last year and Lee Evans this year).
Ben Roethlisberger
Team: Pittsburgh Steelers
2009 ranking: Stars
Current ranking: Hall of Fame level (The numbers, status among peers, Super Bowl rings and franchise-leader status are all there)
Dilfer comment: "This might turn heads, but Big Ben has reached this level."
Hensley's comment: He was the best quarterback in the AFC this season before injuring his thumb and spraining his ankle.
