Vernon Butler - Luxury pick gone wrong?

With the KK signing this week, I want to get everyone's thought on whether this solidifies our 2016 1st round draft pick as a mistake or whether he can be beneficial in other areas. When we originally picked him, I questioned the pick originally but came around to it when I realized that KK would more than likely walk after playing out his contract after the 2016 season. Now that that theory is out the window, I'm left to wonder if the pick was a huge waste of our first round selection last year when looking at the holes in other areas of our roster. He seems to be too big to play DE and not big enough to take over for Star. Is his ceiling KK's breather for the next 5 years? If so, there is no choice but to call this pick a bust, regardless of how good he becomes. There is no way his production in that role can fit his draft position. Thoughts?

      Canales and Darnold

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      My take on Darnold was always that he was fine with a good offensive line but would wilt under pressure with a poor line (Jets and Panthers). Seattle began the year w/ a pretty bad oline and they improved somewhat but Darnold is showing he is a pretty good qb. Imagine what the Panthers would be today with Darnold and without Bryce Young and all the wasted draft picks to get him.

      Similar situation but that would be a better version than what we currently have. Sam isn't a franchise QB but he is a good bridge guy. Either Seatle finds a young guy to groom or they have hit their ceiling. They 100% can't put it on Sam's shoulders and expect to win but the team needs to carry less with him at QB to win vs what this team has to do with Bryce.

      to me the post would suggest Sam Darnold was good last night because Seattle won in a wild game.   Which is what we do with Bryce Young.   Sam Darnold didn't play well last night.  Which is how he trends, goes to a new team.....looks okay and becomes classic Sam Darnold down the stretch.  Last 6 or 7 weeks old bad Sam is coming out a lot (and then a weird Atlanta game mixed in lol).
