That is the big question to me. you pick the one you prefer and make Sam COMPETE like a MF to earn the starting spot, if he does, fine, if he dont, trade him. (or maybe even trade him if he DOES start.... after he plays a few games) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would, but it really depends on what JD thinks of Lance and Fields. A lot of people have concerns over Fields busting because of recent OSU busts and Lance busting because he's so inexperienced. I honestly am not sure how the Jets will play it if they don't get the top pick. If JD didn't like Lance or Fields, another option would be to bring a vet in to compete with Darnold. (i..e what the Bears did this year with Foles/Trubisky) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 2 hours ago, batman10023 said: this is a quant model. Josh Allen had a higher bust potential. Darnold was roughly in the same percentage as Rosen. even the authors own words But if I were the analytics director for an NFL franchise, I would feel no need to disagree with a scouting director who placed Darnold ahead of Rosen. https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stat-analysis/2018/qbase-2018 which non analytics draft guru said Darold would be a bust. the vast majority did not say this. Key work "potential". Rosen is a bust. Darnold is teetering on the edge of being a bust. Allan, so far, has avoided his bust potential, in large part due to his supportive cast and coaches, but also his own play. Quibbling over what people said pre-2018 draft is pointless now anyway. We have (going on) three years of actuals with which to judge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Harris Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 How do we repair the relationship with Sam Darnold if we don’t get the number one pick? How does this guy ever sign an extension with this team if we don’t get TL? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people think the Jets are tanking. Just because they are terrible doesn't mean they are not trying. Personally I am looking forward to Sunday and seeing how Sam responds to all this noise. I'm rooting for him to have a great game. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sam can pull out 3... maybe 4 wins by the end of the season. He can save his own job. Imagine if we got the 2nd or 3rd pick!!!If he really wants to be the qb of the jets he can screw all of us over so badly. I’m not totally done with him. But I’m team Trevor. This time we get a way better qb with extra draft capital to build around him. As bad as the jets seem there has to be a decent coach who believes they can win with Trevor here.

ncjetman Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 jet fans are beyond fickle and expectations on darnold completely unrealistic- not one of you guys said he had such high bust potential when everyone was we have to suck for sam - no one - and with this team and this coaching staff not one hall of fame qb could be successful - he is not repeat not sanchez 2.0 - i think trading down in draft to gain more premium picks and jd prioritizing positions on offense and hitting on them will make all the difference in sam’s performance next year and beyond - forget the picks he sees and does things a fqb needs to do - i know i’ll get killed for this but it’s true - gase was brought in to develop sam and we know what a total loser gase is - sam deserves a head coach who can well you know .... coach Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suck for Sam? No one? Were you here? Personally, I liked Darnold better than Mayfield and Rosen, but I was far from completely sold on him. We had long conversations about how much he turned the ball over, his lack of improvement from 2016 to 2017, the hitch in his delivery and the "cow on ice" comments. The he only reason he wasn't blasted harder is because most figured the Browns or Giants would take him and we'd be choosing between three out of Mayfield, Rosen, Allen and Barkley. FWIW, I liked Allen a bunch, but he was the most scary. His inaccuracy at a small school was terrifying and he certainly had the highest boom/bust potential, as similar to Jackson as to the others. At least he has a cannon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, the key is that they don't play well enough to save Gase's job....

Sam is playing on quick sand. He needs to win as you say because of the realities associated with resetting the clock if the Jets pick first...

Dunnie Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 very few people were saying he had a high bust potential when coming out. which top draft folks said this?I said this the entire year leading up to the draft ... ...and proclaimed Rosen to be the next drew breeze...Sent from my SM-G950U1 using JetNation.com mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
