It’s all about the QB this year.  Can they protect him, and can he get it done?

Not really training camp stuff, but those are the only real questions I got.

I think the QB situation is really going to come down to regular season games. Darnold falters when the fire is live, so we aren't going to know until that happens.

The only things that he could do to make a lot of concern in training camp is to look like complete poo(the whole time) or get injured. Those would be instant areas for concern.

I’m hoping for good things from these joint practices.  I think the “live” reps with no fear of contact could really boost his confidence seeing CMC/Moore/Anderson/Arnold making plays.

As I prepare for the hell knows as Spartanburg in August, please let me know some of the players or positions you are most interested in.

Would love to know what safety position Chinn will be playing and who is playing beside him.

This. I'm honestly not all that interested in Darnold's play during camp or preseason. I want to see what he looks like when the games actually matter and once opposing DCs have film of him in our system to study. We'll know who Darnold really is by Halloween.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
