Maybe so but will that be enough to matter? The bar you just set was really, really low. And they may not being able to help shitty overall coaching and planning(Rhule) or complete lack of talent(also Rhule).

Yeah, we will see how quickly he learns the lesson that he can't do that poo. Howell, if he ever sees the field, will get a quick lesson in that too and he is a far bigger guy physically. I HOPE the OL is better but we are making a lot of assumptions to get to where it is better. TBD.

Yeah, I am worried he is gonna default to hero ball if that interior OL doesn't at least improve to average NFL caliber. I don't want to see him getting lit the fug up as he is scrambling to make a play with his feet. He can't take the beating Joe Burrow takes.

I think that will be his biggest challenge, figuring out how to actually work through his progresses and make real reads. A lot of those Air Raid guys don't adjust to that at the next level.

I suspect the same. I think he likes Sam and is much more attached because that was one of "his" guys versus Teddy who may have been a Hurney guy. I'm fine with that too. Let Rhule gift us another top 6 pick so we can draft a QB there is no question about being a franchise guy.

It's gonna be 4th grade before that poor kid stops misspelling her name.

I hope he is able to win the starting job outright. I think we will basically know after TC and preseason if he will be a failure. If he can't beat out Darnold(I don't necessarily mean start because Rhule plays favorites), it was a miss. If he wins the job, time to see if he is the real deal.

Bingo. So people need to understand this in the event that Corral doesn't become more than a backup and not freak out on the kid. Have REASONABLE expectations. If he exceeds them, amazing. If he doesn't, that's fine too.

Yeah, still mad about the 3rd rounder we traded but it was much better than it could be.

The league as a whole basically made moves in free agency to handle QB openings because this QB class was so poor.

If he loses the job conclusively to Darnold, that's when I am gonna turn on Fitterer pretty hard.

Wow. I somehow hate all of them a little more now.

I don't know how much I consider it throwing him to the wolves if he is just plain better. That's what I mean, if he wins the job....he's the guy. He's gonna have some growing pains if he starts in Game 1 or Game 14.

I am not going to calibrate by our staff's standards because they have proven conclusively that they have no fuging idea what they are doing. He's a third rounder, so I have no intentions of saddling him with 1st round expectations. If he falls flat on his face as a player, I will gripe about the 3rd rounder and skewer the coaches but I am not gonna get upset at a 3rd round draft pick QB for not ending up being a franchise player.

I'm glad you made me wrong and stuck around. Sadly, I don't think it is going to go well for you. Welcome to Jets 2.0.

fug Boston.

Actually their run of draft success was relatively small. They have done a pretty poor overall job the past few years.

The level of coddling for Darnold was fuging absurd.

You mean after trying unsuccessfully lure a FA QB.

I mean....if he wins the job you start him, IMO. If he is the best guy, put him out there and let him learn. If you find out he isn't the guy, so be it. He was just a third rounder, not the #6 overall pick. Kid gloves are for guys that aren't ready. Supposedly he is one of the couple of guys that might actually be ready.

That really shouldn't happen. As a 3rd rounder, his expectation should be solid backup QB. Expecting more than that is unfair(see Grier, Will). Anything more than that just means it was a better and better draft pick.

And let me be clear, I don't have the prospect or the position we drafted him in. Corral was my #2 guy and 3rd round is great value for a QB gamble. I bristled at the cost of the extra 2023 third. I don't want to keep this draft deficit continuing because it seems like we have a propensity to try and "make up" for those lost picks rather than just take your medicine and re-stock. Corral is a very good guy to gamble on. His limitations are way less than some of the other prospects.

If they thought he was a franchise QB they would have taken him at 6. They know he isn't.
