dThey can attack defense just about every way.

Need to load up the offense for Cam as well.

Chubb Train in mid round.

 

Chubb seems like he might go early in 2nd round. Wish they could get him or Penny.

I saw Cleveland wanted Denzel Ward in a trade back.

Ward is sick, Lattimore lite

That would be a good move. Chubb at 4 works too if they don't get the offer to move back that they want.

Its hard but you can find good QBs in the lower round, look at my boy Dak Prescott 

Prescott is the definition of average. Guy will never win anything unless he somehow luckily winds up on a stacked 2000-Ravens-like team. When Elliott was out and some of his elite OL guys were hurt he was the worst QB in the league.

Jets have screwed up in the draft nearly as often as the Browns 

Let's see what happens here.

I think it's Darnold and I think that's a good move. He'll be solid at worst with potential to be a great franchise QB.

      If his seat was hot enough for him to be fired 6 games in then you should've just fired him when you made the decision to draft a QB #1 overall. I don't think you go from "this is definitely our guy" to "you're fired in 6 games". Seems like there would be had to have been doubts going in and that's not a recipe for success for a rookie QB.

      I like to use the analogy that a high draft pick QB is like a new supercar. Great to have one except too often, one forgets that they are high maintenance. A bad team secures their car under a cheap tent, puts regular gas in the tank, services it at Pep Boys, and then blames the car for not working properly and proceeds to get another one.  At the least, Ward getting sacked 25 times already is a massive red flag. If you can't protect your rookie QB, you do not put him out there. Otherwise, it's taking your supercar and immediately spinning it right into a tree. A few survive that rough of a start. Most do not.

      I don't think there's any one size fits all answer. I think you play the rookie when A) you think he's ready and B) you think there's a reasonable expectation that the overall situation provides him an opportunity to be successful, not necessarily in terms of wins and losses but just in terms of giving him a fighting chance with surrounding talent. If you rush either one it's probably not gonna be pretty.
