You think we’ve gotten a fair eval of Sam with the O Line we have? He’s lucky he’s not dead 

At some point, you have to figure that a QB is not a starting QB in the NFL. Darnold has had four years to get it together. Even more, franchise QBs, which are coveted even more, come into the league and give evidence that they are franchise QBs notwithstanding bad O-lines and other suboptimal conditions. I would genuinely give your suggestion more credence if it hadn't been Sam's fourth year in the league of doing the same things, some of which he did in college. I'm fairly certain that I remember a stat which indicated that he was at the bottom of NFL ratings even when he had a clean pocket. In my opinion, it's time to move on from the thought that he's anything more than a questionable backup.

Yeah we'll probably have to send someone a 2023 draft pick and Darnold for them to cover half his guaranteed $, basically sell a draft pick for the favor. Thats like 4 draft picks total for a failed Darnold experiment?

I don’t know why everyone says we lost a 2nd a 4th. We gained those picks back last year. Do we not have them this year no but we got them extra last year. We just have his sucky ass contract.

I guess that's a stretch perspective. You never really gain picks back when you deal them because you're losing out on the opportunity to stand pat and make picks at your current higher position. Can you do well dealing picks? Sure! But that doesn't mean you wouldn't have done even better staying where you are or keeping a player that you have.

The Darnold deal was a bad one.

    • At this point, I think Chubba is the odd man out. I hate that, but I think Dowdle gives us more production and big play ability.  But there is still a lot of football to play.  I think it depends on how much Dowdle will want too.
    • I’ve been anti-trade when it comes to Melo, but the way this season has started, it may be time.  I love his game and he’s a cool dude, but I’m starting to think, if he’s your best player, you’re never going to win anything of significance.  Too many brain farts, too many injuries, and ultimately for as fun and entertaining as he is to watch - his game is indeed a thing of beauty - it just doesn’t translate to wins.  And that’s IF he even plays.  I think it’s time to cash out and maximize the return.  I love Melo, but I think it’s pretty clear what the ceiling is for a team where he is the best player.
    • Every NFL team, college program, hell even HS has numerous "what ifs" that got derailed by injury. It's a brutal sport and half the battle is just getting lucky enough to stay healthy. Doesn't matter how durable you are and how well you take care of your body everyone is one weird hit or awkward twist away from a career derailing injury.
