I don’t think they sign these guys to short term contracts with the idea of having a transition season with a rookie QB. Tepper isn’t going to care if we go 8-9 with a rookie QB. He wants a winning team. Why else would they consistently look to give up draft capital for established QBs?

Great addition. With the way the OL is shaping up and with the defense also being strengthened even Darnold could carry this team to enough wins to see them pick outside the top 10. If they’re strengthening this much in free agency the idea of tanking to get a QB in 2023 just isn’t going to happen. It’s probably a certainty they now try and bring in another QB via a trade.

The question is who do they panic and trade for now? I think it’s safe to assume they won’t draft anyone because both Tepper and Rhule want a ready made solution and none of the QBs in the draft are that. Darnold is still there but having tried to move on from him halfway through last season and now in the off-season the likelihood that they start the season with him as QB1 is small to say the least. What a mess.
