NO ONE, no one, had Darnold as their top priority. Yes it's desperation. Like the fat chick at the end of the bar after last call.

Ian said the panthers where the only team that wanted Darnold, so of course that means three draft picks with one being a 2nd. God dam we samert!!

He's never once had the weapons he now has at his disposal. I'm predicting FAR fewer two-yard dump-offs on third and 6, at least. Not crazy about what we gave up, but we typically suck in the draft anyway, so it was worth kicking the tires on a guy who's never gotten a fair shake and who has some mobility as well as an arm.

If Fit is smart he can instantly upgrade the oline in this draft.  50% chance at Sewell and 100% chance at Slater.  Pick one and then do it again in the 2nd and waalah, your line is set for years.

We're giving him another chance. We're very charitable and kind.

Do you think he was put in a position to succeed with the New York Jets?

I'd take Darnold and keeping our first over Lance/Fields and no first for the next two, three (hell, given it's Tepper, four) years.

Unfortunately, slot of the same people who just traded a pretty nice haul to get Sam Darnold. We're fans of a really dumb organization.

By the way, read the comments from other teams' fans on PFT.  Many think we stole him.

It has been a rough couple of years so the apprehension is surely justified.

However if Darnold can get the ball deep to DJ Moore I will feel much better. Words can hardly describe how demoralizing it was to see guys like Matt Ryan sling it up and down the field on the Panthers while we needed a prayer just to complete basic deep throws.

The coaching staff did their best, but they lacked the talent to make it in the NFL. Darnold is coming to a better team with a better coaching staff. What that will produce in the coming seasons is anyone's guess, but I have a bad feeling.

What in tha ass? 
 

It’s the 2nd that kills me. And correct me if I’m wrong but don’t we have to pick up his option in May if we want to keep him past this year?

But Scot what about my immediate emotional reaction and my hot takes?

What do you mean just hope for the best for my favorite sports team?

I had my hot take gland surgically removed.

Isn’t it nice to get a QB with all his physical tools and not sell the farm. Now it’s up to coaching

It's hilarious seeing all of these people who were advocating making big moves and trading 3 firsts plus two starters for Deshaun Watson suddenly waving their arms in panic over a trade featuring a 2nd round pick lmao
