With no clear-cut stud quarterback besides Lawrence...

 

I do everything I can to trade back.

 

It’s very possible we can parlay the number two overall pick into  a first and second this year and a first second and third next year. That combined with the Jamal trade and a load of cap Space infuses this team with young talent.

I give Sam one more shot

whats QBs will be available to draft next year?  better than this upcoming draft?  if not need to take one

Darnold will have multiple 300yd games next year. He will be a top 10 QB in the not too distant future. He'll be the QB hoisting the Lombardi trophy sooner or later.

Archie Manning is not dead

Jesus....no wonder he is still pumping out HOF QB's then.  

Maybe we should spike Darnold's drink with a little Manning blood!
