Mayfield for peanuts and a coke...

Don't feel bad for Darnold. Twenty six and set for life is a great place to be. Even if he never plays another down...smiling all the way to the bank. I would take that trade off any day of the week.

Can't believe people are crying over this trade. No way M.C was starting no matter who the QB was. Sure Mayfield may have personality issues, but that is irrelevant now. 

Carrol will get his chance. This sucking just to hopefully get a top five pick next year is ridiculous. Same people who are bitching about this trade, would be bitching about a 4 or 5 win season. Can't win with this crowd

Patience paid off, what a steal. Anyone complaining about this deal either is perpetually miserable or doesn't understand how the NFL works. Not sure which is worse 

Or just think that he's garbage and not impressed at getting garbage on the discount.

Fugging get what you pay for. Going to a great restaurant and just getting a chunk of stale bread because it's the cheapest thing on the menu.

Yeah, cuz there was such a large menu to choose from

Had they just made this deal last season...

Man, it probably would have been a first, second, and a conventional fourth last season. No way they'd have gotten him on the cheap. They had to learn what the hell they were doing. But we're in an overall better position this season with the O-line and healthy status of McCaffrey, TMJ, and the addition of Higgins who has history with Baker.

Bruschetta is made with stale bread… have to add the tomatoes, olive oil & garlic, some provolone depending on where you go.. but damn! If bruschetta isn’t some tasty stale bread.. not on its own, but the right ingredients, that simple mixture is amazing..  

 

at the same time, some places want to add some kind of olive, yafeelme, it ruins something so hard to fug up but yet does, ya feel?

Acquiring Baker would have commanded a fortune last season.

Crazily it would have cost the same as Darnold, since their contracts are required to be the same. The trade might have cost us more than it did now, but probably along the same lines as Darnold's did now.

Smart shopping can really make the difference I guess. If we just new what would be on special ahead of time.

    • You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.

    • We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
