Trade Sam Darnold for draft capital. Keep Cam Newton with a 2 year contract. Draft a mid round QB (Aqeel Glass is who I want) to learn under Newton. Trade down from the 6th pick to accumulate draft capital.

3 possible QB outcomes: Cam Newton revives himself with a full offseason. Aqeel Glass takes over as starter. Set up with draft capital to build around a leader at QB. Become more attractive to a temporary QB with past playoff success.

Keeping Sam Darnold and PJ Walker has little to no hope at success with him as the starter. Builds no draft capital. Has no mid round rookie QB that may be able to compete with the best. Will never attract a temporary QB with past playoff success. Only hope is that Sam Darnold becomes an instant playoff success or PJ Walker magically becomes the answer when Darnold is benched or injured.

Keeping Darnold is a limiting choice for a bottom dweller. Rhule however is not planning on completing his 7 year plan (he never did with any institution). He will just look for a better opportunity every year and sell them on the same 7 year plan he has yet to prove in his career. So, I don't think he cares. He will stick with Darnold as any change would admit a mistake and drop his stock to move somewhere else. He can keep gaslighting with Darnold at QB.

Sam Darnold has zero trade value

If we can find a trade partner for Darnold, we're possibly going to be giving up draft capital. Definitely not getting anything of value in return. We got a 6th for Teddy and we covered the bulk of the contract

The answer is #2 but the question is when and who?  If it is a QB in the upcoming draft they better do serious homework on these guys.  They all have red flags.  Maybe fix the OL and go sign Trubisky cheap for a year and get the QB next draft.

Problem is I seriously doubt Rhule and Tepper will wait a year on the QB.  Rhule needs to win next year period 

Yeah I think our realistic options are 

1. Draft a QB

2. Sign a mid/low tier FA and load up the OL

3. Try Darnold with a better OL

3 might be the worst as a fan…

Do we draft someone? I would say yes if we had fired Matt Rhule.  But we didn't.  Which means the new HC (off history), will want his own QB.  Which makes the draft pick wasted.  

This isn’t really a thing and even if it was, it would only mean multiple high value chances at a franchise QB, which anyone should be fine with

Browns and Saints have interest in Darnold. Wouldn't be surprised if there are more. Not going to get back what the Panthers insanely gave up for him, but there may be a pick or 2 on the board you can leverage into a few mid round picks.

0.0% we can trade him 

 

where are you seeing the browns and saints are interested?

If JG goes the the SB ... again ... Lance is going to sit at least one more season. We're not going to trade away more things to bring in a QB. It's up to Cam if he wants to play one more season here where he may not even start some games. Sam is here to stay and stink. I expect us to draft someone, hopefully not with the 6th, and pray he turns out to be a good NFL QB.

No offense but I highly doubt anyone would want Darnold especially at 18 mill even if it is for one season.  If we were offered a 7th rounder we would probably take it if we had any other option

most new HCs.....want to handpick who there career and shot is tied to.  That is a thing.  You draft Pickett or Howell and then hire a QB who wants something entirely different from a QB? 

I mean, it's not a thing when you are hired and you inherit Aaron Rodgers or a lesser but well established QB. 

But yeah, a new hire isn't going to want to "rebuild" with Matt Rhule's new young building blocks.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
