Keeping Darnold accomplishes three things here and outside of the short term pain for us fans, it's all positive.  Settling on Darnold this year keeps us from drafting a QB in a very substandard class.  It almost assures us of a bad, if not horrible, season.  Thirdly, when this happens, Tepper almost has to fire Rhule.

So 2023 sets up like the onset of Rivera's tenure; new staff, new outlook and almost certain to be drafting the franchise QB of the future.

If this crew was capable of that much forethought or realistic planning then they would never have traded for Sam in the first place or burnt the bridges with Teddy and Cam. Expecting them to do right now that they are even more desperate is just not very realistic. The sad part is we all know and want a new staff, Tepper ain't there yet and the hope he sees it for the shitshow everyone with eyes sees is still not a given at the end of this wasted year.

Everything you just typed is correct. Which is why Rhule will allow none of it.

Darnolds value hasn’t devalued since he took his last snap this past season.  I think his market, or lack thereof, was already established.  

This is just stating the obvious in my opinion.  I haven’t seen any threads or discussion with the illusion we could get anything for him.   If they can find someone willing to take on some of his contract then bye, otherwise just roll with it until next season.

    • Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.   
    • For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.     
    • I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
