He has a career QB rating of 84.4 with around 61% completions.  He is average but is more than capable of sitting back and being a game manager.  Who do you want to start if we draft someone like Richardson or Levis who needs time?  You aren't going to sign some QB with a win percentage of 75% because those aren't available, especially not for cheap.

It's ultimately up to Reich and the team, but I'd rather see Darnold and his moments hang around then move to Brissett. Am I expecting a miracle? Absolutely not, he'll most liekly suck. But Sam has some dynamics and Brissett is in that 'Alex Smith but lamer' player category that is just so bland and predictable. Alternatively, throw a little more money at Heinecke or something, but don't wave the white flag right off the bat with a guy like Brissett.

What is Darnold's record as a starter?  21-35? Isn't that what you hated on Brissett for?

Then just keep Sam

Sam is erratic.  Good game, awful game, good game, top 5 worst rating ever game.  I'd rather have a steady constant as the bridge QB/placeholder until the rookie is ready.  Teddy Bridgewater was actually a good choice that was overpaid.  It should have been Teddy as the bridge QB and draft Fields.

You ignored what I said about dynamics. If the odds of sucking are equal might as well keep the guy that has shown he can be more dynamic, for better or worse.

I daresay that Darnold's team have generally been worse than at least some of the teams Brissett has played on, but this is going too far into the weeds for a discussion about what amounts to guys whose ceilings so far have been average at best. Brissett has zero dynamics and zero upside, so I'd rather go with someone else.

None of those were first round picks??  Plus not all of the same crew will be drafting these next few years.  You could also argue that Stroud is a ? as well as most QBs drafted.  

You can argue that.. But that is just opinion based backed on more wanting to keep picks then AR-15 the actual prospect.. But that’s okay.. JMO Stroud is worth the trade up..
