NYJ37/12 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 10 minutes ago, Jetsfan80 said: We'd have to trade Darnold not long after drafting a QB. Darnold would be entering Year 4 of his deal, and the decision on his 5th year option would need to be made (by whoever owns his rights) in the first week of May, 2021. No team is trading much of anything for Darnold if we wait on it. His only value comes from still being young and cheap. Why not pick up year 5 and move him anyway during year 4 if he loses out to the draft pick? There is always someone who will trade for a high draft pick qb still on his first deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them will have trade value The 5th year option could cost as much as $25M. The better move would be to trade Darnold prior to that deadline, which allows the team trading for him the ability to make that call. Exercising the 5th year option would reduce his trade value. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least they'll be brining in a first round QB or quality vet that shakes free. I honestly think JD has already moved on from Darnold.

BigRy56 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Gase will be gone, Sam will be here but I don’t think they’ll extend him until the year after if he earns it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maury77 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It really comes down to this (at least to me): If I had to compare Darnold to Lawrence coming out, Lawrence is the better prospect. However, if you are asking me Lawrence vs. Darnold and whatever the Jets could recoup from a team trading up (say 2 1st rounders and 2 second rounders), I have to stick with Darnold. Sure you are spending money to extend Darnold, but it won't be a crazy contract given his stats and the Jets would have 6 first rounders over a 2-3 year period. That's a loaded roster.

Seem to remember a team tried this gamble with a failed QB and after they traded him they ended up paying more of his salary than the team that he played for the next season. Can’t remember the specifics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TokyoJetsFan Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Draft Trevor or Fields and move Darnold back to his old position LB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King P Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Why is everyone talking Trevor Lawrence? We're not getting him, we won't be bad enough to draft him. Lower your expectations, Fields and Lance are the more realistic options (especially the latter) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
