Columbia Jet Fan Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Was listening to Cimini's flight deck because he had DJ on and DJ not only is one of the most informed insiders but also has a relationship with Joe D from their scouting days together. The interview overall had a lot of good nuggets, but one part that absolutely shocked me was when DJ started speaking about Sam's trade value. DJ admits that he is a big Darnold supporter but says he heard Schefters report saying we wouldn't be able to get a first round pick for Sam and he disagrees. He says the Jets would absolutely get a first round pick from some of the good teams picking in the late rounds. He mentions Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Indy, and SF as potential trade partners. Link for the podcast is here if people want to listen (~28 minutes in is the talk of Darnolds value) : http://www.espn.com/espnradio/podcast/archive/_/id/26768425 I was pretty shocked by this as I would have been happy with a 2nd... so hopefully DJ knows something here. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Adoni Beast Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 I heard this too. I’m still skeptical of a 1st, but we really have surrounded Sam with the worst rosters and coaching staffs his 3 years here. In a recent article from Tony Pauline he also mentioned that there are PLENTY of teams that still really like Darnold and definitely believe he can be salvaged. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I hope JD reads this and shops Sam Darnold to those teams ASAP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TuscanyTile2 Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 I agree with DJ. The NFL is a QB league. I think GMs will see the value in acquiring a 23 year old potential-FQB (who clearly has been severely mishandled by this incompetent organization) for a relatively cheap price. For the record, I still want him here unless we can draft Trevor. 16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icer Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 A 1st round pick would be highway robbery, highly doubt that would happen 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 If the Jets are in trade mode I would be creative. a 1st is preferable however I would look at a lower pick and a player as well. (As for the type of player I'd be looking at, Danielle Hunter type, still young at 25 and an excellent pass rusher.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair and I guess none of those teams need him right now. But what if he continues to sh*t the bed and losses his supposed 1st round value? If they're obviously moving on from him so why not maximize his value and build around a FA until you can find your next franchise Qb in the draft?

He sucks and I'm confident he's only going to look worse by the end of the season and definitely without question, not be a 1st round value. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscrazey Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Trevor Lawrence and 3 other picks from, say, #20-33 overall could be enough to get a culture changing head coach here. I think Lawrence is worried about the Jets in their current state but if we can get a Matt Campbell or someone on that level who can build a program, that could be enough to get him to declare. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 If you plan to take a QB late in the first, you ask yourself - “Is this guy better than Sam?” If the answer is no, than you trade a first. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 31 minutes ago, JiF said: Ok, so why hasnt he been traded? Maybe because the teams mentioned already have a good starter this season? The aunts and the Steelers could be viable trade partners because brees and be are getting pretty old. I suspect Ben wants to get another trophy and that might happen this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’ll have to wait to get the best value. All those teams will want to see what they’ll be givIng up to get him. Right now I can’t imagine any team bringing him in to play this year. ultimately this will come down to: is there a better chance that they can fix Sam or does a QB we can draft at 20 have a better chance. I have little doubt some team will believe Sam is the better prospect. But we’ll have to wait until those other teams can do their homework. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know of any examples? I don't. This is yet another reason that trading Darnold now doesn't make any sense - for either side. Even if you believe in Darnold's potential, his poor play in his 3rd year as a starter clearly indicates that he is a project - not a win-now guy. Any team looking for a QB in the middle of the season would only be doing so if they thought they could win something. Even if there were a QB out there who could fill that role, it certainly wouldn't be Sam. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointman Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I keep hearing Pittsburgh mentioned about Sam. That scares me. A young, potentially elusive QB with upside.. a replacement for big boy Ben. I imagine seeing them as a perennial roadblock on the way to finding a championship all for a measly first round pick that doesn't materialize into anything . And the headlines always reading how Sam was ours and now he is the leader of our nemesis that kicks our teeth in each year. Another SOJ moment until he retires. Then I think about the massive garbage plays and the defenses he can't read that even I can see, and I remember just how much I laughed watching that soft bodied USC product play and I feel better and am ok with sending him off for a box of golf balls. And I don't even play golf. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Makes total sense for those kinda teams to throw a late 1 for Sam. You’re prob never picking high enough for a top QB, why not take a shot at talented QB already with 3 years experience. Sam with Shananan would prob be a damn good pairing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
