As the regular season approaches, several teams are feeling the need for top-tier quarterbacks. Readers will recall that Lamar Jackson and the Ravens’ management did not agree to terms, and it could be his final season in Baltimore. But if the QB1 exits, he may have a horde of teams waiting for him.

The New York Giants could be the top pick for LJ’s next location. Since there is a considerable buzz around Zach Wilson, Jackson could be the savior for the franchise. The Niners are also one of them unless they move forward with Brock Purdy, Jimmy G, or Trey Lance as the starter. Moreover, the Bucs are also a good pick since Tom Brady is also playing out his final season.
