Quarterback trade options

I would be happy with either Darnold or Minshew ( in that order).  Darnold has not had the best of team around him in NY and I think a change of scenery will do him well.

I've also said that Minshew would do well with this offense.  He's in the mold of Jake Delhomme and would bring some fire to our offense.

Jimmy G.  I am not interested in.

Daniel Jeremiah slots Sam Darnold into this year's draft pool and puts him at #3...

 

I don't question Jeremiah's evaluation (I find him generally quite good). However; you can't look at this in a vacuum and not consider Darnold's contract situation. Minshew is much cheaper and just as good. I'd rather roll the dice on the 'Stash.

Understood. Pretty sure Jeremiah is looking at it only from the talent aspect.

I'll just add "perceived" talent aspect. Part of that equation should be decision making and ball security. Minshew may even the score a little bit on that front. Darnold has been a bit of a turnover machine! That's his biggest red flag for me! Minshew was his rookie season, but he cut turnovers considerably in 2020.

I'd offer a 3rd for Darnold. Gase players have a track record of looking like different players when away from him (Robby Anderson and Tannehill) and he'd definitely look better in Joe Bradys offense with these skill players. 

I still think turnovers are his issue, going back to USC. He'd still provide more dynamic play that Teddy. No idea his upside at this point, really. But he's also young as hell like our other skill guys at 23, so I think he'd fit here. 

A third rounder is not a big risk for him.

More than likely we will trade for darnold if it becomes available I still think he a top talented QB in this league just on a team will no help from anywhere. If we get Either him or minshew I really could see us trade down in the draft once or twice to pick up more draft capital. I think this would be the ideal scenario rather overreaching for one in the draft.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction     
    • Better than a fragile starter, though
