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.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
