Which trade was worse 2nd for Darnold or 3rd for Henderson?

Eh, neither on their own.  Henderson was worth a 3rd.  Ideally he'll contribute significantly more next year and he'll be worth it for sure.  Even if he's worth holding onto as a high end backup he'd be worth a 3rd.  Darnold was an overpay but QB's pretty much always go for a premium.

My problem is both of them in the same season really depleting our draft capital coming up.

All in all, probably not that big of a deal.  We'll trade down a few spots and make up for at least one of them if not both plus more.

Personally I'm ok with both deals.  In the grand scheme of things, they likely don't matter all that much beyond Darnold making this a wasted season.  It becomes a bigger problem if they keep taking every "can't miss deal" on every busted player with potential.

We’ve made two terrible back to back decisions at QB alone. We aren’t too far from this assessment(If not already there) from those moves alone.

Marcus Mariota is your starting QB next September and you’ll like it for the first few weeks, when the headlines are “Mariota, Panthers Off To Hot Start” but once December rolls around you’ll get your annual dose of “Mariota Benched, Panthers Drop 10th Straight”

Right now, it all feels like poo because we keep losing.  I get it, it sucks.

The owner and coach ran Teddy out (and most of us were happy to see him go, let's be honest).  We needed a QB, and the team wasn't quite sold on Fields being ready to contribute or Jones' ability to be the QB we wanted.  When we traded for Darnold, I was hopeful.  He was leaving a dumpster fire.  We didn't quite realize he was the one with the gasoline and matches...  But we took a risk, and I'm ok with a 2nd round pick (we made up for the value via other trades) on a QB.

Henderson is a very talented man corner.  He's having a rough go right now.  It was a potential trade.  Trading Arnold away was something the team was willing to do because they thought Tremble was ready to be the man.

I think the MUCH larger issue isn't these two moves, it was the decision to try to be a power team without power players.

It’s just compounded now because the Darnold trade and picking up his 5th year option was some epic level failure.

why do people keep bitching about the fifth year option

who cares

the cap isn't real in the nfl and money is no issue for the owner. It's not like we're the raiders who couldn't physically pay for khalil mack

i think at the time picking up the fifth year option was a way to boost his confidence which is its own different bag of poo, to be fair, but if you trade for him thinking you can turn him around you absolutely don't let him do it without another year in place.

      Sure, but if that happens, the draft pick will look even worse for the Falcons, as instead of getting them a player that could win now, they took someone who ran off their prize FA QB after 3 years and now looks like they may be a bust. Penix was one of the more polished QB's in the draft and would have probably been a rookie starter if taken by someone with an uncertain starting QB, if he's not ready to step in and play well in year 3, then it's probably not going to work out. So the only way it helps their contract situation, is if it doesn't work out as they plan, but if it does, they're going to cut Cousins after 2 years and then have to give Penix a monster deal the following offseason.
