Don Otreply Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 No one is giving a 1st and a 2nd for Darnold, I have a feeling his Career is one year from essentially being a high payed backup, poor dude, he was screwed the moment the jets selected him. 1
Brennan Huff Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 You guys remember when he held out an entire season? And now it’s come to this. Do I feel bad for him? Not a chance in hell 1

Back2Buff Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 I will never forget the day he dominated us in Dec in some snow. If he were to be cut mid season, I would love to take a shot at him. I just can't seem to shake that his isn't good anymore. 1
Charles Romes Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Has signing a top free agent running back ever worked for anyone. It’s always better to split the reps in a running back by committee at lower cost and keep the defense guessing rather than bog the offense down with an official number one guy who has a certain number of guaranteed touches. Look at the Rams return to form this year. Edited October 13, 2020 by Charles Romes 1
brianthomas Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 It makes sense for the Jets to part ways with Bell, given how this is a lost season & their timeline for rebuilding has changed. But Bells value is also at his lowest right now, so theyre not gonna get much for him
DCofNC Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 With Bill O’Brien our of power, it’s going to be tough. 1

Probably a better chance of that happening!
BarleyNY Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) He’s got a $2.5M roster bonus due in two days per Spotrac. That makes this really an odd situation in that mid-season roster bonuses like this are very rare (first I’ve ever seen). They can part ways with him for nothing. I guess they are just seeing if anyone will give them something for him before they release him, which is doubtful. Edited October 13, 2020 by BarleyNY 1 1

Coffeesforclosers Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 I love how the Jets have to leverage this trade with an implicit "He's way better than our crap team and bugeyed coach have made him look so far. Honest!" 1 1

Sounds like you think he's playing well? If so you don't trade away a QB playing really good. Unless he's not playing really good, then why would any team give up that much for him? Maybe you could get a 2nd for him, but not likely mid-season as it's not likely you bring in a QB mid season and expect him to be able to learn the playbook and become your starter. Maybe you bring him in as a backup, but can't see giving up a #2 for a backup. Plus in off season would need to decide if you want to pick up the 5th year option basically without seeing much of his play. Maybe a team like Dallas that now needs a backup, but still don't them giving up that much for him when there are also other options out there. 1

You don't get MORE for the player than you spent to get him after he didn't live up to expectations. And are you allergic to capital letters? It's pretty widely accepted the Jets have completely botched his development and just left him with a ***** o line and no weapons on offense. There wouldn't be many suitors for a deal like this but the Colts come to mind. They'd have to give up on Rivers right now though which is highly unlikely. Colts have a great o line, lots of weapons on offense, great coaching etc. They have a nice window at the moment and Rivers isn't exactly elevating his play as many thought he would. You have to wonder if Darnold with a great o line, great coaching and actualy nfl talent at wr could get his game back together. 1

I left at halftime and drank more in the parking lot was that the game they busted out the snowplows at halftime for a very light dusting of snow, and then subsequently jacked up the field by making the rubber pellets fly everywhere, delaying the start of the 2nd half? Good times.
