Predicted Outcome of Darnold Trade  

95 members have voted

  1. 1. Which is the most likely scenario?

    • Gets beaten out as starter(rookie/Teddy/etc)
      0
    • He is who we thought he was(same inconsistent player - bust)
    • Teddy 2.0(career highs in TD/Yards but still clearly a marginal NFL QB)
    • Jake 2.0(not an elite QB but shows he can make us competitive)
    • Adam Gase is QB Poison(Shows why he was the #3 overall pick - Franchise QB)

He’s better than Teddy, still not good enough to be a franchise QB. Toil away in NFL purgatory 

If I am going to be completely realistic here Teddy was better than Darnold by a good amount last season.  He will have to improve bigtime to be a good starter for us.  The turnovers are very concerning with him.

This trade should not take us out of the QB market in the draft either if Fields drops to 8.

We are going from game manager to gunslinger but this is one of the statistically worst gunslingers in the NFL. 

I know people want to "ooh and ahh" over the potential of Darnold but we need to not be blind to the very real chance that he could be much worse than Teddy was. Teddy was bad in a maddening but ultimately semi-effective way. Darnold could be ACTUAL bad.

I am genuinely curious, is there anyone here who didn't want Jameis Winston but is excited about Sam Darnold?

Great question.

Seems the data-set would include everyone who is excited about Sam Darnold... 

(as I don't recall anyone wanting Winston)

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
