Its the lifeblood of the league and what puts fans in seats, clicks, views and those giant TV contracts and ratings. Apparel sales. All those good things that keep the NFL King.
That's 23 out of 32 starting positions, that's 72%. That is very high and exactly what the NFL is looking for: matchups of marquee names where the games are competitive and QBs lead the way. Faces of each franchise. And you still have older guys like Matt Stafford, Cousins, Prescott, Russ Wilson, Jared Goff, Derek Carr and even Geno Smith that have name value, previously won a Super Bowl, etc.
The NFL and its fans have to be giddy about this development, its great for business and fandom.

- Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Burrow, Josh Allen, Mayfield, Watson all in that 27-28 year old range.
- Kyler Murray, Herbert, Hurts, Tagovailoa, Trevor Lawrence, Jordan Love, just a step younger around 25-26 years old.
- And then the youngest guys: Purdy, Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson, Levis, and all 6 of this year's rookies, Williams, Daniels, Maye, Penix, McCarthy and Nix (remains to be seen on all the rookies)
