Jetsbb 1,428 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Their pro days are at the end of March 2 weeks after the start of free agency. Teams will move on signing the likes of Newton, Minshew, Trubisky all who have far better stats than Darnold. Joe Douglas should have a better understanding of who Darnold is to strike now rather than waiting another 2 months. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Give the Texans time to make their final decision on Watson To me Watson has shown Revis/Jamal style instincts which I hate. Something goes wrong and he wants out.. No one held a gun to his head when he signed his contract I assume. If I'm the Texans I keep him and if he don't play he don't get paid.. Lets see if he also has some Le' Veon Bell in him to boot .. 4 4 1 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a guess in my mind but I am afraid to type it. You can get him and not give up a draft pick. Would you rather sign Trubisky for that or trade draft comp for Darnold, who basically costs 2 years/$30mm? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Biggs 10,245 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 It sort of smells like we don't think Sam is great but will roll with him if we think he's better than who we can get at 2. This can backfire because other teams that might be willing to go with Sam now might go to the combine and like someone better. AZ screwed themselves when they played that game with Rosen. The Giants fell in love with Daniels and they were stuck negotiating with one team. The Giants may well have bid with the Dolphins if he was on the block before the combine.

We're real interested in giving the Jets a 3rd round pick for him? To me, that's not real interest. In terms of waiting until mid March to complete their evaluations of QBs, that tells me that the Jets will be perfectly fine with staying with Darnold if other teams offer a boat load of capital for the #2 pick, or move on from Darnold if they can get a 1st round pick for him. Or move on from Darnold if Houston doesn't try to kill the Jets with some crazy deal. It tells me that Joe Douglas is cool, calm and collected, and that is exactly what you want as the GM of the Jets. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I do think the Jets at #2 essentially control the draft and even more so if Jacksonville somehow does not choose Lawrence. Internally though I think in terms of the QB position Saleh and LaFleur will have equal input to JD. If JD wants Fields but Saleh and LaFleur are convinced that Wilson is their guy we will select Wilson. Part of the GMs jobs is to get the players that best fit what the coaches want and feel is best part. JD does not choose in a vacuum but does have final say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This could be only 1 of the 2 or both Fields and Wilson. They will do due dilligence on Lawrence as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They can trade Sam and not take a QB at 2. There is no reason to keep a bad QB because you don't want to draft a bad QB. I'm for trading Sam and either taking Lance if you love him at 2 or trading down and loading up and rolling with a cheap Vet and/or Morgan. Hate the idea of drafting a stiff or keeping a stiff. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is that if you read into this, the jets staff doesn’t love darnold but will keep him only if the guys in the draft don’t wow them. It has less to do with darnold, and more to do with their draft evaluations. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They aren't making the playoffs next year either way. So you want to trade Darnold for a pick and start Morgan or Nick Mullens or some crappy QB and I would rather give Darnold another year. I don't think adding another 2nd round pick is a franchise changer if a QB isn't taken at 2 the trade down package will be plenty. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adoni Beast 4,089 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Waiting to until after free agent starts to trade Sam, is risky. As others have mentioned, the list of suitors will be minimal, as will the price. But, maybe they’re prepared to roll with Sam, or retain Sam and still draft a QB. I still expect JD to pull the trigger right before free agency thought, and think this is a lot of smoke and mirrors to keep the price on Sam up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
