What do we know about Darnold?  He was good in college, has struggled for 3 years in NY.  Threw too many interceptions, but when you are one-dimensional, always playing from behind, passing is tougher. He will be 24, and he is on a first-round rookie contract for 1 more season.

So what would he do with a better coach, OL, running game, and defense? 

Better. 

Is better enough?

If we could get him for a 3rd and let him play in 2021.  If he does well than we can make a move to keep him.   If he fails maybe we are high enough in the draft next year for Howell or one of the other up and coming QBs. 

I'[m not against it.

It's been mentioned before, but "in on every deal" was always likely to include some that fans aren't gonna like.

It's truly a first in terms of them being on the right side of any transaction...

...but to your point, when the Bobcats picked L. Ball it certainly wasn't met with uniform glee.

The kid appears to have the inside track on Rookie of the Year.

0% chance they're ALL there lmao. I'd be ecstatic if just one were. 

Jones will most definitely be there and shouldn’t be drafted till round 2. People talking him up is ridiculous. I think Lance only playing one game this year will hurt him and he will at least be there till we pick.

For some reason I originally read that post as "Wilson, Lance, and Fields" I didn't see Jones in that bunch. But yeah I agree Jones at 8 would just be awful

FYI Todd McShay talks in length about Jones https://www.theringer.com/2021/2/12/22280617/2021-first-round-qbs-and-mahomes-stories-with-todd-mcshay-plus-russell-wilson. 

 

In a nutshell says Jones is everything you want in a qb.  All the intangibles, nice footwork in the pocket, has the ability to scramble for 5-7 yards if needed, incredible accuracy and can process plays quickly.  However yes he did play with like 9 first rounders and yes his arm skillset is limited beyond 25 yards.  Not that he cannot make the throws but a bunch of times this year he under threw his wr.  (sounds familiar)

 

 

Just passing this along

      What a franchise QB looks like

      By Jmac · Posted

      Joe Burrow hasn't played for three quarters of the season and very little in the pre-season. He comes back and posts some very good numbers and leads his team to victory. That's what a #1 franchise QB should be doing, not whatever is going on here. The eye test doesn't lie. Throw out the rose colored glasses and believe what your eyes are telling you. Five more games and then a decision needs to be made on a certain players permanent status.  Do what is right for the team and fiqure out how to improve that one very critical position. Please don't fug it up this time.

      I’m all for bringing a QB in but who? The FA list is ass. The draft class isn’t great I’d take a flier on Trey Lance and if available in 4th someone like Leavitt or Mateer? I never wanted Dalton back especially at the contract Dan gave him. He’s utterly useless on the field and his cap hit isn’t nothing. He provides nothing.  There’s a lot of bad QB play this year and passing is down. Guys worth trading for are most likely not going to get traded.  As much as many of you don’t want to hear it our best option is to decline the 5th year option. Give Bryce 2026 while we have him under contract. Then in 2027 either sign Bryce (tag would be an option. Don’t repeat the Darnold mistake) or draft another QB and do it all again

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      The league did Jerry Richardson dirty. But Jerry Richardson played himself. He went out of his way at every opportunity to be as subservient to the shield as humanly possible even when the league went out of it's way to make it abundantly crystal clear that they did not want to see Cam Newton be the face of the league to the point they had the refs do their bidding. If Jerry had any backbone he would have taken the gloves off with the league after SB50. But he just took it on the chin.
