I hear your frustration. But I’m a  fan of this team foe 20 years now and this don’t think you are being very measured. 
 

Darnold may not work out. If he doesn’t, he only costs us essentially a 2nd round pick. People wanted to trade three 1sts for a unproven rookie that played one game last year against no name competition. Tell me honestly, which sounds more unreasonable?

Now i do agree with this. Which is also why i think no team is gonna be trading up multiple picks to take lance. If they do it will be fields and i think the niners take jones which is why i wanted us to sit tight for now instead of making a move on darnold.

I tried to tell y'all how Teddy would end up. If we made smart moves I'd celebrate them but I'm not gonna do mental gymanstics to try to convince myself that bad moves are smart moves.

To be fair, you also tried to tell us how bad Justin Herbert was going to be.

Darnold certainly isn't my first choice, but I don't hate it. I'm willing to wait and see how it turns out.

I always hedged my bets with Herbert though that it very well may have been the system he was in. I always said he had the physical tools. Those coaches treated him with kid gloves and now their starting QB is transferring, probably because of that same approach.

Darnold has been atrocious. Yeah, he's been in a bad situation but he was a big contributor to that bad situation.

This guy is 23 yrs old, was #3 overall 3 yrs ago...and he played for the most dysfunctional organization in pro sports

can he do what teddy couldn’t?...which is make plays at winning time?

his contract is big time favorable for us which is a big plus

this guy can just as good, or better, than picking the 4th or 5th best QB, & now we can get a big time OL at # 8

i like this move...a lot 

PS: what can we get for teddy?

The one thing I will say about Darnold is he’s gonna make poo exciting compared to teddy because he will push the ball downfield, often times when he shouldn’t. So I’m actually expecting DJ to put up monster stats. But this dude turns the ball over so fuging much and throws into triple coverage when he should just throw it away. He’s a mess but he’ll make throws where you’ll say holy fug how did he do that. He just can’t put it all together.

Yeah, at least it won't be boring. If he's as bad as I expect we'll be in the mix for a Howell or Rattler next year.

We might get 2021 Mid-Rounder pick or 2022 second round pick for Teddy if We trade him away to someplace safe.

Hell, I hope you're right. I just think there's a very slim chance things play out that way.

I'm with @Mage You usually have great takes and I value your opinion.  But like Mage I don't see a better option.  If we trade up we are going to lose this years 1st, next years first and possibly 2023 first year pick just because of the desire to move up to get one of the remaining questionable QBs.  IMO it's going to be Lance or Fields. 

Both have huge question marks on whether they will be suitable QBs in the NFL not to mention franchise QBs. 

The 4th and the 6th rounders are very easy to swallow and we are only talking one valuable 2nd rounder.  I can only assume that the Panthers do not want to gamble that much draft capital and the Darnold trade was a better option.

I posted in another thread 4 takes from people at NFL Network and all 4 say the same thing.  Darnold had little help in NYJ and poor coaching.  He has the tools to succeed. 

We should be thankful that we didn't trade for Watson before his legal issues came up.  We would have been without draft capital and our new QB. 

There have been several QBs to move from their original team and succeeded including three HOFers (Steve Young, Curt Warner and Brett Favre) and future HOFer Drew Brees and also include Jake Delhomme and Ryan Tannehill.

Not trying to be condescending but we know your hatred of the deal.  What would you rather us do? and why?

Watching Matt Rhule actually communicate, teach ...COACH...at the Senior Bowl practices up close on the field was exactly what I needed so that now I can understand what Sam Darnold is going to be exposed to in Carolina. And it is good. Real good.

    • Would you just fuging quit trying to make us like him? That is his job, not yours.  Thank you. 
    • Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.
    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
