Sounds like Jets' 2nd pick is open for business...?

Baker sweat preseason awards then looked worse the year after that then rebounded after a shaky start earlier this year to look good again and like a good fit for Stefanskis system. I remember that much fine, and seems like Wilson is similarly talented. I also remember Josh Allen being wildly talented but risky due to inaccuracy coming into the league and Fields is already more accurate and a great athlete himself. There's reason for optimism and these comparisons, while obviously great case outcomes and scenarios, are fair.

No, that's just being optimistic and seeing talent. Yall think believing a player is gonna be good is some sort of message board no no and that's boring as hell. No one is winning awards for being low expectations sports fans, it's literally a fun time activity

You can think a guy is going to be good without making the absurd claim that his floor is great.

Forget Allen, if we thought their floor was Baker, I don't think we would've been (and hell, maybe still are) hell-bent on trading for Watson. We would've been hell-bent on trading up in the draft from the get go.

Oh man, take it easy, message board guy

Also the bolded part might be you overrating Baker Mayfield, jury is still out on that guy and Watson is better than both so it makes sense a team looking for a qb keeps its options open. You just are reticent to call college players good bc it might not come true

Interesting comment from Brandon Tierney supported by former Saints GM Randy Mueller...

 

Darnold has moments of brilliance and moments of "wtf is he thinking" pretty much every single game. Darnold has talent but if I am being honest here I am not sure why he is getting this many chances. Gase sucks at developing talent for sure, but Darnold should be picking up things on his own. I had him as my QB1 that draft, so I still have faith, but good lord he needs to get better and fast.

      Carolina Panthers pick No. 19-2026 NFL Draft

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Just going off the draft sims and he's always sitting around 20 lol. First year in a while where we haven't been thinking about the draft already in late October so haven't really looked into the top 15-20 picks yet. Also the qb class is super weak so he probably will sneak up into 10-15

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
