I think we at the least get a 2nd. There will be several teams looking to take a chance on him and as long as you have more then 1 team interested, that value will go up. 

 

Definitely hope you guys are right!

I think it helps that he has that rookie tape that looks promising and that Gase is known for ruining players and that Tannehill went on to play like an MVP.

That's the reason I think there will be any trade market, at all. Still not convinced it's enough to get a 1st or 2nd rounder. Jamal is a bad comparitor because he was a 2x all pro. Even if we don't put a lot of stock in that, NFL GMs do. He was also seen as the missing piece of a championship-caliber team. Darnold will not be. He'll be seen as a reclamation project and not his next team's presumptive starter wherever he goes.

a #2

Again, San Fran has an injury prone QB right now. Why does anyone think they want ANOTHER injury prone QB? Especially when their backup QB looked basically exactly like Darnold. Any of the others, maybe, but I don’t see it with SF

Someone will take a shot to try to fix him. But you don't pay premium price for a one-year lotto ticket.

Interesting about Rosen. Wasn’t he the QBs that had all of the throwing mechanics down?  Can’t say what’s going on there but something besides Murray made the cards move on so quickly.

The Cardinals agonized over trading Rosen and essentially reduced their bargaining power by waiting until after they drafted Murray to trade him.  There was a huge debate in AZ about keeping Rosen.  The owner and GM wanted to keep him and when they hired KK he was all in on Murray.  The debate played out right up until the draft.  If they knew they were drafting Murray they should have put Rosen on the block months before drafting Murray.

There's a reason Rosen is on Tampa Bay's practice squad.  Brian Leftwich coached him in AZ and is the QB coach in Tampa Bay.  Leftwich was developed as a coach by Arians in AZ.  Arians had scouted Rosen for the Cardinals before he "retired" as HC.  Leftwich is his QB coach in Tampa Bay.  Arians clearly views him as a potential Brady's replacement.  Rosen has his rookie money and put himself around a great coaching staff and veteran QB.  Rosen is actually in a great spot to get another shot down the road with a good staff and team around him.

Not to mention he is not even flashing anything anymore. You guys can dream but the more he plays, the more we all see how bad he is and that ceiling is just getting lower and lower at this point. If we actually get a 3rd somehow, erect that JD statue immediately.

He’s playing on one of, if not possibly  the worst team, in modern history. He’ll get another chance, likely. 

You don't get mulligans in the NFL.  You still have to play well to get chances in this league, regardless of your circumstances.  Speaking of circumstances, he just faced one of the worst pass defenses in modern NFL history on Sunday and still managed to sh*t himself.  

I get that all it takes is for one GM not paying close attention to cough up a good pick.  But there's no denying his value only stands to continue to drop every time he plays like garbage.

If he was a replacement for Brady, he'd be the QB2 a role held by Blaine frickin' Gabbert. You don't expose your QB of the future to your practice squad. This is a cray take.

At worst?  lol.

Even if teams believe they can "fix" him, they only have 1 year to completely overhaul his mechanics, then decide whether to extend him, and for how much they're willing to do so.  All of that works against his trade value.

Who you take right now if you’re Carolina- him or Bridgewater

They're gonna die on this hill then when they are wrong they'll blame Gase for depressing Sam's trade value. It's impossible to convince a Darnoid they are wrong.

Serious? Bridgewater has a 96 rating and a 14/8 TD/INT ratio with his best weeponin out nearly the whole year. Is this a real question?

Not to mention they're financially committed to him.  His cap number is $23M next season and $26M in 2022.  If they cut him next offseason, they'd incur at least $15M in dead cap money.  

If Carolina were to acquire Darnold it would be as a project QB2.  Bridgewater is locked in as their starter.

The Bucs are on a playoff drive with the goal of winning a SB.  Rosen is a development project.  Not protecting him doesn't mean he will sign with another team unless they give him a boatload of money.  Nobody will without seeing him play.  He isn't exposed unless someone offers him serious money and the chance to start.  Gabbert is locked in as the 2.  He's not the QB post Brady.  

Rosen has made a ton of money and doesn't need to sign a minimum deal to sit as the backup on another team.  He's not a typical FA practice squad player.  He made a bet on himself and his future.  It was a great move for him.

Well Gabbert and Rosen have that in common.

Development project lol. He was billed as the most "pro ready" QB in the 2018 draft. He's not a development project. He just sucks.

Disagree.  He has the exact value as Sam.  The fact that Arians is giving him a spot when during Covid every spot is critical to a team in a playoff drive says he's still a development project just like Sam.

Gabbert is a professional backup QB who has had a long career in the NFL.

Who has exact value as Sam? Rosen? Agree. Rosen was cut by Miami after no one would even give up a 7th to have the final two years of Rosen's rookie deal (remember some were worried Rosen would get picked up by the Pats and torment us for the next 15 years? lulz). Now he can't beat out Gabbert and is on a practice squad. That crafty Arians -- hiding his gem QB of the future in plain site!

IF THIS WAS HIS FIRST YEAR...

When do you think Josh Rosen was traded? After his first season. For 62nd overall pick. 

Major if, but still, if this was Sam’s first season, he wouldn’t garner anything more than a high 2nd at best, knowing we would be drafting TL. 

But it’s year 3. And Sam has shown zero progress. That’s typically a sign the player doesn’t have what it takes for that next big step at QB. A 3rd rounder would be huge for Sams.
