no more than a second. do that and stock talent around him and i wouldn't hate it if the coaches thought he's a great player in an awful system.

Yep.  He still presses the ball/isn't timid or broken like say Wentz, Goff, or a David Carr looking back a bit.

I get aggressive, but come on, at least let the aggressiveness make sense.  Darnold will be an upgrade from Teddy, but I think his ceiling is a 6.5-7 out of 10.  Repeat, that is his CEILING if he actually reaches it.  Stick to the plan, draft a QB.

Yep! There is something to be said for being overaggressive! And it usually ends up to something negative in regards to football.

I think when you get down to it, you must ask yourself if Darnold is worth the 8th pick.

You can ask the question until you are blue in the face but the answer will continue to be and will never change from a "HELL NO"

 

If we trade for a qb before we evaluate/interview the qb prospects I am going to lose my mind.  If that happens then to me that is a knock against both rhule and fit.

 

Build through the damn draft.

Yep, it almost feels like our front office is got up in the frenzy in going after some of these guys, just calm down boys and let the game come to you

Well we have no idea who we have been involved with other than Stafford. All the rest is just reports of "multiple teams." 

I don't know or really care who we are involved with looking at, I am just more speaking to how completely nuts this market is at the moment. I cannot ever recall this kind of feeding frenzy for QB's.

Jets missed on that one.

Yeah, and I remember the knock on Allen is the same as the guy in my avatar...underdeveloped, small school prospect that's not ready to be a day 1 starter in this League.  So while the Jets are looking to possibly move on from Darnold, Allen is just hitting his stride.  Granted, Allen had some growing pains for a couple of years, but the Bills have there franchise QB while the Jets are at a crossroads with Darnold.

D1 competition, NFL ready, blah, blah, blah.  The draft is about projection at it's core.  I saw back then that Allen would be the better QB of those two even if he didn't play a tons of game in a power 5 conference.

Chew on that Trey Lance doubters....

In what way would this be an upgrade?

Watson and trubisky.  And if you believe Fits "every deal" comment you would have to think he has kicked the tires on every other available qb.

 

I just dont think getting a damaged goods qb while giving up precious draft capital is what this franchise needs right now.  In honesty in makes no sense

Yep pick a guy, have the patience and infrastructure to develop him and reap rewards.  Stick at 8 and pick lance.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
