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.

No argument. He's done well the last few weeks.

I'd be fine with keeping him as a backup.

I agree I'd be ok as well with resigning him to be our backup QB

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..

[WOW!!]

I’m still drafting a QB or pass rusher..

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.

He’s playing well but if we do keep Wilks Anthony Richardson would really maximise this RPO smash mouth style

After the first 2 pages, this thread just becomes unbearable to read by anybody that is unbiased. 

Sam did play a good game today. Great?  Why the fug what he need to with our oline playing the way they are?  Is the running game helping? Well, no poo Sherlock.   The run game makes every QB's job easier. So stop throwing that out there as a qualifier.  

Sam still stepped up and made big plays today when his number was called.

Nobody is anointing him, so the anti Sam people can back off that poo too. 

Just acknowledge he is leading this team to victory.  That's what the QB get paid to do.  

Obviously,  the story of Sam, is not over yet, much to the dismay of his critics. 

While he hasn't been lighting up the league,  he's winning, and not turning the ball over.  damn, sounds like a QB to me. 

Next season is still next season. 

Is good to see Sam and the team doing well. I'll never understand the people who hate that poo.

Sam is a starter in this league. Depending on how the rest of the season goes. We should try to resign him.

Fitterer isn't going to hitch his wagon to darnold as our only qb option next year. That would be stupid. Sam has played ok but he is not the answer at quarterback. Have to draft one this off-season. Sam can stay as a bridge qb or backup if he wants
