As a guy who negotiates for a living I just don't understand giving up so much. I literally read we were the only ones interested or "bidding" so why in the world do you offer a second? Id start off offering a fourth and wait through the draft (when they would've still traded him after) and go from there.... I just feel like Tepper is waayyyy too jumpy rn. And why not just trade up to 5?

According to Schefter that’s exactly where it started, a fourth. And ended up at a 6th and a couple future picks.

It isn’t too much in a world where the rights to Mac Jones commands 3 first round picks.   

Just cause one team does something insane...INSANE doesnt mean that becomes the new normal. Panthers seem to work off what the Dolphins traded for Sam Rosen...... whom the Phins cut within one year too.... Wouldnt shock me if that happened here with Darnild too..

The jets could get a 3rd round comp pick next year .... so the value was atleast 3rd round next year .. I say its better then paying 3 plus 1st for unproven rookie .. wish it was just a 2nd . But it is what it is .. I trust the staff !! Go panthers

You think their starting offer was a second rounder?

If Darnold is a hit then it will be a slam dunk. If he doesn't play well then it didn't cost that much for a potential starter.

Frankly I l.ike management  coming in and swinging for the fences.

A second and a fourth is quite a bit?  Also, I read we will not be picking up his option??? Im so confused

I read that we are picking up his option. And a second and fourth in the future is a third and fifth in the now. Not that valuable.

It's about coaching, not stats.

Rhule and co think that they unlock the talent in Darnold, Elflein and Erving. That's why Tepper paid him $72m. 

I hope he can......many have already failed... Our OL came for SD(now LA), he didnt turn water into wine at any point. Those three have already had a few coaches and gone no where but the rock-bottom in most of the ranking/grading/metrics in three full years. Its a huge accomplishment each kept getting starts, HUGE!!

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
