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.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
