F*ck no, there's only a sliver of debate to be had. He has talent but his confidence and processing ability is shot. The greats don't have that happen to them regardless of situation. 

The best case scenario for him as a Jet is if he becomes "good". Just good, which even then is more unlikely than likely. Nothing has shown that he would surpass "good" either. Both parties need a fresh start plain and simple, there's no other way to look at it.

Do you have a list of quarterbacks that started the three years of their careers as dogsh*t and finished their careers as dogsh*t?

Do you have a list of QBs that have entered the leuage to a set of circumstances as absurd as what Darnold has had to deal with? 
 

To answer your question, two HOF names stand out. Steve Young and Drew Brees. Literally stunk it up worse than Darnold their first 3 years.

Regardless. Darnold working out is nothing but a bonus. He’s under contract and cheap, I’d rather give him a chance than roll with some no upside vet.

With Lawrence out of the equation, yes.

Build up the rest of the roster and see how he does with a new coach and an improved supporting cast.

If he falls flat on his face, then make a play for Howell in 2022 and at least he can potentially walk into a situation where he doesn’t have to make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t every week.

Just say it then - "suck for Sam"

I want the next coach to make that decision. If he stays, there better be a plan to help him develop and succeed. If he goes, there needs to be a QB they love in the draft.

This.  Personally, I’m not ready to commit to anyone not named Lawrence from this draft.  HOWEVER....if your top candidate comes in and wants his own guy, give him that.

@Jetsfan80 and @jgb would laugh their ******* heads off reading this argument I'm having with you

He is ****ed because of those circumstances. Hopefully he can become un****ed, but I'm not wasting a minute waiting for that to happen. He may have always been ****ed but I'm not wasting another year finding that out either.

If we had the 1st pick the answer would be much more obvious, my take is if we draft or sign another QB, keep sam as well for next year. If the kid tops out as a “game managing back up QB” why can’t we keep a player like that on our roster? The Jets should put tireless effort and resources into the QB room, who’s the backup if we draft Wilson and trade Sam? Morgan? We should’ve kept Teddy, and I think even if we draft a Wilson or Fields #2 overall, they should still keep Sam for the time being. I think him on the roster as competition and potentially a backup is more valuable than what we can get for him via trade.

PLOT TWIST!!!!

We draft Zach Wilson or Trask, and find out they are no better than Darnold during camp......

That is so NYJ......And I can 100% see it happening..."Shudder"

What do we do then lol? This forum will explode..........

Good idea. Never draft another QB again because they may be as bad as Darnold.

And you believe Howell is better than Wilson and Fields.. because?

Nah. A year of a new kid we tried on is better than a fourth or fifth year of a dude that is a known dud.

I hate the idea of wasting a high pick on a QB other than Lawrence.   Sam has been bad but we have a chance to reload if we use the picks to maximize value.  

Build the team and sign an FA qb when we have enough pieces to compete.  The chance that we can out QB the elite NFL QBs through this draft is slim and none.  
 

All in on a qb is fools gold.  Theres just not enough elite difference makers in most drafts.  This one will be no different.
