If you’ve accepted the Madden 24 challenge of turning your team into the new NFL champion, you first need to assemble the best possible team in the Franchise Mode. To help with that, first, you need to find the best QBs to trade for. As such, in this article, we’ve gathered the best QBs to show you.

Justin Herbert 

Justin Herbert is the best player on this list. He’s in that sweet spot between Superstar and Superstar X-Factor, which means you can get him without forfeiting your entire future and develop that X-Factor rather quickly. The main issue with acquiring Herbert is that the money you’ll have to pay him once his contract is up will be more than most elite QBs ($50M+ a year). If long-term cap space is not an issue, then by all means, go for it. If you want to obtain him in MUT 24, you need to spend about 15,960 Madden 24 Coins.

Bryce Young

Although he is struggling in the NFL right now, Bryce Young may be the best rookie quarterback you can jumpstart a franchise with. His stature is not an issue, either, as Young is a capable pocket passer who can also thrive making plays on the fly as a big-time improviser. He’s an all-around balanced quarterback who will develop star traits steadily. Since he was the #1 pick for the Carolina Panthers, it’ll take a decent amount of draft picks and players to get him, but Young is a worthy investment that will pay off sooner rather than later!

Anthony Richardson 

Starting at a 70 OVR, Anthony Richardson is a franchise project in Madden 24. But don’t let the low overall fool you. His running abilities are top-notch, and his passing is not a problem, either. Richardson is the move if you want a run-heavy QB from the start. Just keep in mind that his overall development will take a while, making him a long-term investment that will take multiple seasons to become elite. 

C.J. Stroud

The best rookie in the NFL this year and an MVP candidate, C.J. Stroud is a no-brainer when it comes to rebuilding a franchise in Madden 24. The moment you acquire him, you get a very solid passer with elite pocket presence. And that’s before you even unlock his hidden traits, which maximize his innate ability to make difficult throws in the pocket despite pressure from the defense. His rushing ability is relatively limited, but if you’re a pass-first offense, then look no further – C.J. Stroud is your guy.

Brock Purdy

Probably the cheapest option on this list, San Francisco 49er Brock Purdy is a good choice for those who do not need an elite quarterback to carry their offense. If you manage a franchise with superstar offensive talent but lack a QB to run it, Purdy could be good enough to keep you afloat. He’s not perfect by any means, so be prepared to work hard if you want to get his Dev Trait to the next level. Keeping expensive players but still remaining in contention is difficult, but trading for a cheap option like Purdy maximizes your chances of winning.

And there you have it, the best quarterbacks to trade for in Madden 24 franchise mode. Managing a team is not easy, but making the right decisions at QB can make your life a lot easier. Good Luck!
