Trajectory Curve: Retention vs. Franchise Struggle Severity
Current Operating Point ●Historical Star Quarterback Relocation Benchmarks
| Quarterback | Prior Team | Departure Trigger | Peak Struggle | Precedent Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Russell Wilson | Seattle Seahawks | Offensive system & personnel clash | 64% | Traded to Denver (2022) |
| Matthew Stafford | Detroit Lions | Rebuild fatigue & roster ceiling | 76% | Traded to LA Rams & won SB |
| Deshaun Watson | Houston Texans | Front-office dysfunction & roster gut | 82% | Formal trade demand (2021) |
| Tom Brady | New England Patriots | Weapon erosion & contract resistance | 58% | Free agency departure (2020) |
Methodology Note: This model computes retention probabilities using a logistic penalty algorithm grounded in Wilson's captured thesis: franchise struggles compound QB frustration when roster ranking drops below the top half (#16) and cap room falls under $30M.
