We need better pass catching tight ends and a shifty slot player. 

RD 1: Michael Mayer, TE - Notre Dame

RD 2(a): Best defensive front 7 player available

RD 2(b): Zay Flowers, WR - Boston College

Rock with Darnold/MC/3rd or later rookie QB in 2023 and if none emerge as a legitimate top 15 starter, push in all your chips for the 2024 QB class.

I mean, again, we're talking about a singular statistic that at the end of the day has no real bearing on performance overall. Though if you're so fascinated by this, again singular, statistic I can say that in Darnold's career, year by year, his YPA is much lower than Teddy's, if that even matters to you.

You do realize that one poor performance and that average could return to the mean, right?

This place is amazing.

People are appreciating that our QB isn't killing us, but there's a handful of posters that simply won't let that be.

"No, you're wrong and here's why". 

Just shake your head at our ignorance and move on with your day, good lord.

Not taking a TE in the 1st round ever.. The positional value doesn’t fit.. If you’re not taking a QB, OT, pass rusher, or CB early in the 1st then trade down..

This from the guy who still contended the trade was a great move even at the end of last season. You're either clinically insane or you like Darnold for other reasons.

I get it. I’ve seen many 1st rd TEs fail to meet expectations, but if you think there’s a Gronk or Kelce caliber talent, you would and should make that pick every time. 

Our biggest holes on offense are QB and TE, and if we’re picking where I think we will, the 1st round worthy QBs will be gone. I don’t mind drafting a project QB later in the draft, but I’d rather secure our other biggest need.

I’ve read Mayer is as close to Gronk potential at TE seen in a while. I’ve only watched two games of his and I believe it.

    • 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.
