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?

True and hopefully we get a 4th for Teddy and get that back. With the way QBs are going ya never know

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!!

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
