It still doesn’t clarify much. Did we talk to their GM in Feb sure. I’m sure every GM Fitt is near, he is speaking to (if he is halfway decent at his job). Rhule was high on Darnold obviously that’s why the trade happened, but was he higher on other players? Who the hell knows except obviously he was higher on Stafford. Tell me this, if we missed on Darnold who was our next FA/trade target for the QB position? The draft is too risky and the trade officially happened AFTER the Niners traded their future away for pick 3.

That’s my point. Breer was WRONG in this article and it’s now officially proven. You can’t take any of these reports as the gospel, not even Breer.

1. They don’t want to start a Fields vs Darnold debate all year (looks like it’s happening anyway) 2. They don’t want Darnold thinking he was ever in doubt. Confidence is crucial in a young player that was just destroyed by a terrible team these past few years.

How can you possibly know it wasn’t the last? We didn’t offer anyone else afterwards so it technically was last, but no one else good was really available... Your guy Albert Breer who we are suppose to 100% believe in this story was helping push the we might draft a QB story as well. I doubt any of us will know the whole story. I’m not taking one side other than he clearly wasn’t our first. But we should we sit here and believe one journalist and write off another sometimes same journalist article? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.si.com/.amp/nfl/2021/04/12/carolina-panthers-sam-darnold-quarterback-nfl-draft

I feel like my parents are fighting...

Darnold was definitely not our first or second choice. Fitts being in on every deal is why we were talking to the Jets early. (Which we thought a second was too much for him originally) I’m sure he has spoke with half of the teams about potential trade targets. I’m feeling a little optimistic about Darnold, but I’m not delusional in thinking we wanted him first the whole time.

So in summary we draft Jaycee Horn and now Julio wants out.... (I stole this from Facebook)

TBH the Saints have beaten us too much lately. The Falcons feel like more of a “rival” to me than any team. Now that Brees is gone is might shift back...

He might help us find our next pro bowl MLB...

As long as Marshall can stay healthy...

It’s hard to find another Teddy.

Gooby disagrees....

Baker would be a bust as well.

Yeah I’m not worried about the personality at all. Burrow, Brees, Murray, and Luck (when he played) all had that laid back easy going OFF the field personality and made it work. As long as his foot is on the gas competing during practice and the games I’m not worried about him being entertaining.... People wanted Fields and he has that same demeanor. It’s all about winning games for the fans.

They all do play an extra game...

I hate that it’s making me not want to cheer for him, because he seems like a good guy.

Wait until Fields scores a preseason TD....

Oh no I get he did not this time, but the eagerness of fans to get worked up over a potential practice INT seems a little much...

Ok let’s not freak overreact over practice INTs. Darnold will throw some, that’s why they keep practicing. Preseason is going to be fun....

Well if they went over it more in practice maybe Teddy would have thrown to the open WR down the field.

Moore looks confused that he was hit in stride and even had to extend his arms.

Good for him because he doesn’t have prime Cam to bail him out...

The undersized undrafted linebacker from Wisconsin?

Bouye does he ever! Seriously though he was great for the Jags only a couple years ago. Ramsey was their one and he was a dominant 2.
