Oh I went to the NFL article in question. That the OP seriously misquoted.
The ranking was for the QB’s 2020 season. In which Dak only played 4.5 games.
not the QB’s overall ranking amongst starting QB
So even the article itself doesn’t say Dak is the 16th best QB in the league. Which the OP neglected to mention or just flat out chose not to.
Of course, I've noticed that the same kind of logic the OP used is used by fans on here concerning free agents. If a player was bad last year because of injury, then he's a bad player, according to the logic.
We're assuming that Prescott comes back and picks up where he left off or even gets better. I don't think that's a faulty assumption. I'm not sure what it's worth contractwise, though. Generally, when players have a bad or injury-plagued season, it does lower their value some. It doesn't mean they are going to play poorly, just that there is some slight risk that they won't bounce back and be as good.
