our 4th is a high one this year, so it seems fair.  Our high 3rd seems too much.

If we have our QB, then that's a draft pick slot filled that we otherwise would have used. Plus, we could either move back in the first or second round to recoup the Darnold pick.

About that...

 

Yeah Darnold is in a tough position for getting moved. I could get behind him if we think we are totally out of the QB drafting market. But I dont think there is a huge improvement from him and Teddy

Honestly I think year 2 Teddy would be better than year 1 Darnold + a pick.

Ryan Tannehill kind of changed the landscape for QBs drafted high that don't pan out initially. It seems more teams are open to reclamation projects at the QB position and acknowledge crappy teams make even decent prospects look crappy.

How many QBs careers have the Jets ruined?  At some point you have to look at the organization instead of the players.  I don't think Darnold is all that and a bag of chips, but he's not horrible either.

Back in October there was a Twitter army trying to convince Trevor to stay a year and avoid NY.

Lucky for him Jax tanked harder than the Jets, although I don't think the Jets were tanking.  Sadly they only won one more game than the Jags actually trying.  Not that going to Jacksonville is much better, BTW.

Just for sheets and giggles...would Minshew's be about the same? Honestly, I might like him more, and he'd be $9M cheaper this year.

Which may be the reason they hold onto him for Trevor's rookie season.

This would have to be a good offer--like a third and a conditional 2022 pick. (speculating, but when I do that, I am never wrong)

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
