The 4A Club Post-Regular Season Player Rankings: Quarterbacks

Every four weeks I like to take a look at the landscape of Class 4A football and come up with my own player rankings based on statistics. How I come up with my ratings is a system based on pro-football-reference.com’s "Approximate Value" system of ratings they use for overall performance during a season. For this article, I’m taking a look at Quarterbacks, where I’ll list out my top 15 Pocket QBs and top 10 Dual-Threat QBs to go along with my top 5 overall quarterbacks. *Stats are up to Week 8* #1.
