Yep.

#8 overall for Minshew and the two Jacksonville second round picks. I mentioned this before but That would be the deal I’d be trying to push. I’d even do Minshew, a second and a third for our #8.

how good do you think Minshew is? I read nfl.com article stating he would go for a 4th at max.... His stats do not reflect his inability to read a defense and weak arm.

Darnold or Minshew?

neither jets or jags are going to get a first round pick in return for thes quarterbacks. They dont have leverage. They are assumingly going to draft their replacements. All teams are going to low ball offer them bc otherwise they just have an extra bench warmer.

Teddy had maybe the best three receiver lineup in the entire NFL and couldn’t eclipse 4000 passing yards. We saw his best season last year. That was it...

I don’t think anyone in the NFL thinks that we’ve seen the best of Darnold yet bc Gase is such a disaster. 
 

Flipping a 3rd for Darnold as a backup to not getting Watson imo is maybe as good or better plan to trading a treasure trove for a top 3 pick. Unless coaches think his problems just aren’t repairable. 

The same three receivers that had career years with Bridgewater last season?

This narrative people are spinning is weird.

Darnold. He was the 3rd overall pick just 2 years ago and pretty much everybody is still decently high on him, from the huddle to the media, with most people saying the Jets aren’t really his fault. If you hear all those takes in the media, you’ll probably hear similar around NFL front offices.

And I think the huddle is generally overly optimistic about minimizing what we would have to give up to acquire players or draft picks or what we can get in return for players/draft picks.

These guys are on team friendly rookie contracts. They don’t have to sell at all.

I think he is a little better than teddy and is still improving. I think a third is right for him.  I was impressed when we faced him and I thought he looked even better until he hurt his hand. Contract is decent, player is young.

A third and two seconds would match up with our first round pick on the draft value chart, I believe.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
