So what if one of the qbs drop in.the draft? Why did we rush this???

I'd like to think this was basically hedging our bets to prevent absolute disaster of being left with only teddy at QB if all the top QB were drafted ahead of us?

the market just said 3 first rounders was the cost to go up to #3 and draft a college QB.   And that kid frankly, is no safer gamble than pulling Sam out of NY and trying him. 

 

Oh, I'm with you, I think. I wasn't too keen on trading multiple firsts either. I always said that we had to do a cost-value analysis and look at all the options. 

Go Darnold!

Only argument that makes sense against this trade is if the jets are taking Wilson at 2 which Is expected then darnold could be had for cheaper after the draft...but I still like the panthers wanting to get a clear picture of needs before the draft

fuging embarrassing how.many idiots post on this forum. 

I don't care that ya haven't done research on the kid.  Most of you would have been unhappy regardless whom we got. 

I'm am sure the 2nd rounder was to get the Jets to trade him with essentially no picks this year.   A 6th this year? Who the fug cares? Seriously. 

Darnold has talent.  Gotta like him with our weapons, and the focus of building the oline. 

Even if he isn't on the roster in 3 years, this is a fuging deal.

a 2022 second has third round trade value in 2021.  So the fourth is actually a fifth. 

Add em up--we saved our picks this year, to build around the qb.  We tossed away a 3 and a 5 and a 6.  Boo hoo.  Some of you crack babies wanted to send 3 first rounders and 2 elite players to Houston for guy who really craves deep tissue pecker rubs.

Brother until an hour ago I was on your train but now that ship has sailed.  We are riding and dying with Darnold.  We are not drafting a qb at 8

If Fields or Lance falls to #8, I  wouldn't 100% bet against it.  This is essentially a 2-year deal for Darnold.  We gave up on Teddy after just 1 year and his contract ran 3years.

qbs have to make plays in clutch situations. Can darnold be clutch? I don’t know but from everything I’ve read/watched the best we can hope for him is a glorified game manager. 

Though the metric can be flawed, I look at comebacks and game-winning drives as an indicator of how clutch a player is. 

Data :

Sam Darnold has led 3 comebacks, and had 4 game-winning drives in his 38 career starts.

Teddy Bridgewater has led 5 comebacks, and ahd 6 game-winning drives in 49 career starts.

To be fair, a Kia Sorrento is a high quality automobile, and comes for a fraction of the cost and maintenance associated with a Rolls Royce.

this here is where the source of the support for this move comes from

 

youve got a bunch of dorks so concerned the team would trade away their precious 1st round pick and then they’d have to sit bored all offseason with nobody listen to their deep scout hot takes player breakdowns

youre going to be a lot more bored watching Sam Darnold lead the team to 3 and out drive after drive

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By fanpanther · Posted

      I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
