With the NFL draft complete, it's time to concentrate on what really matters by trying to accurately predict (or not) how the 2015 season will unfold four months before it even begins.

The quest to obtain a Lombardi Trophy begins anew for each team, yet only a few clubs will legitimately be in the conversation to contend for the Super Bowl.

The league itself is comprised of two kinds of teams, those with legitimate starting quarterbacks and those without one.

It's not surprising to note the organizations that made the 2014 playoffs featured Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger, Cam Newton, Matthew Stafford, Tony Romo, Carson Palmer (pre-injury) and, yes, even Andy Dalton.

High-level quarterback play automatically provides an advantage each and every weekend, and the upcoming season shouldn't prove to be any different.

Quarterback is the most important position on the field. The last nonfranchise signal-caller to taste ultimate success was Brad Johnson with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl XXXVII (2002 season). There is absolutely no reason to think that trend will change anytime soon.

This year's predictions reflect the league's current status.
