NYJ1 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 My train of thought has been telling me all off season that the Jets should go all in with Sammy, but I've always wanted the Jets to still draft a QB. The Jets need to light a fire under Sammy's as$. No free rides. Let him prove he deserves to be the starter. With that said, not necessarily picking a QB at 2, but still someone to challenge Sammy. I guess I could live with the Jets taking Wilson at 2, but I'd still like Sammy to remain with the Jets and give him an honest opportunity at winning the starting job? Now, if this done truly honestly? Don't be surprised if SAMMY wins the starting job. I'm not taking anything away from Zach Wilson but there's too many yahoos on this site that are so impressed with the bling bling new, shiny thing? I quite frankly think that's dumb. Zach Wilson is no more of a SPECIAL QB candidate than Sammy was 3 years ago. The fact is, Sammy was just as good, if not a BETTER prospect than Zach Wilson. I'd prefer the Jets to squeeze every bit of value out of the number 2 pick when trading down. That's why I've always suggested the Jets should pick a QB after say the 1st round. But if JD truly believes that Zach Wilson is the guy, he should take him. Put him in an honest, let the chips fall where they may, contest with Sammy. What's the harm in that? And honestly, I just don't think it's sound logic to limit your opportunities at discovering that ever elusive franchise QB? Worst case, you get a 3rd round compensatory pick when Sammy leaves in FA after this season.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If JD trades back, gets 2 additional first round picks, 2 additions 2nds and manages to draft Slater, Waddle, or Jenkins, you think people will be pissed for not drafting Wilson or Fields? Nobody really wants to see Sam on the team anymore. I know I would prefer the Jets move on but if he is still on the team I am certainly not going to hate him and I will root for him to do well. I'm fine with JD trading down and getting a ton for #2 if possible. But in my opinion you still trade Darnold and then sign Mullens to start next year. You get an extra asset from a Darnold trade while also bringing in a competent QB who knows the system already and has had success. Having Darnold be the starting QB next year is a non starter and would shred any favorable view the fans had of JD. You could end up with 2 1sts, 2 2nds and 3 3rds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gangrene Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Tim Jenkins, the qb coach behind the Youtube channel 'All Things QB' that produced the Sam Darnold video also produced 'Is Zach Wilson a Franchise QB'. Jenkins is essentially complimentary but he has said Wilson has to clean up his footwork. He added that he was unsure that ZW is developed enough as a prospect to start day one. Whichever qb they start out with, there is some issues ahead that need to be addressed. Tim Jenkins along with JT O'Sullivan are both must see QB football channels on YouTube. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunnie Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 This is probably the best analysis of Sam that I’ve seen. His upside is still there. Particularly mid-season, you could see him slip into his bad habits with lower body mechanics and occasionally lazy throws. But the theory that he can’t read defenses is easily dispelled in this video. That’s not his problem. I’ve watched every throw of Darnold’s, and every throw of a NYJ QB over the last 40 years. He is not a bust. He was not the primary reason the Jets have sucked the last few years. If we can get a haul for the 2nd pick, it is tempting to go that direction and actually build a complete team. If we can’t get a haul, I’d be happy taking BPA which may be Wilson, and then having them compete in camp. To the latter, the biggest issue there is not the locker room, it’s the fans. Mid-season no one was talking about Wilson, yet now he is the new shiny toy. Sometimes it takes patience to develop a player, and this system, with its quick reads could really unlock Darnold and would play to his strengths not his weaknesses. But as many posters have said, I think the fans in NY are a real problem. They don’t stick with guys through difficult times. They make snappy judgments and the boo-birds begin. That may ultimately be the reason they move Darnold, but it may also be the reason why three years from now, we are wondering who should replace Zach near the end of his rookie contract. While Darnold is taking another team into the playoffs. THat is same old Jets in a nutshell. I’ll say it here again. QB1 is not the biggest need we have in a few weeks. Our needs are OL, WR, TE, Edge, and CB. Maybe... but sam is entering big money territory and has not proved he is worth it yet.Wilson has undeniable potential and will be far cheaper to develop.Sent from my SM-G950U1 using JetNation.com mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the market for Sam has truly dried up, what makes you think he will get that big of deal from another team? Why would another team throw enough money at the 38th ranked QB to warrant a comp pick.

JohnnyLV Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Ship has sailed. Carolina will likely wait until the first 3 are gone before even considering a trade. Then they will be in touch with Cincinatti and Detroit to trade if the QB they want is there. The Jets should also be trying to package Sam and picks for 8. People want to roll with Sam and think someone should trade 3 ones and 2 twos for Wilson. Well if a team is willing to do that maybe it just tells you that you should select Wilson. If the Jets were trading back it would have happened already. Steve Young said the Jets are committed already to Zach. With the connections that is likely true. Kimberly Jones said that at his Pro Day JD was "beaming". And I noticed the huge goofy smiles they had as well. Wilson is the pick, we should be worried about how to build around him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarletKnight89 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I'm starting to warmup to the idea of keeping Sam Darnold even after drafting Zach Wilson at 2. There's no way the Jets should pass on Wilson, but keeping Darnold around for 1 more year isn't a terrible idea. I thought it would be bad to draft Wilson and keep the guy you drafted 3rd overall only a few years ago on the roster with him, but that's probably an outdated way of looking at things. If the Jets can get a 3rd round pick for Darnold, I would trade him. If not, draft Wilson and keep Darnold. Let them battle it out and see if another team eventually is willing to budge and give up a decent draft pick for Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it's possible a mid round pick at QB, particularly as a rookie, probably doesn't provide much competition for Sam which is your premise and if he does provide said competition well that still speaks to the fact that the Jets should move on from Sam.

Let's put it that way. I'm sure his play would take a huge step forward. It could hardly get any worse. My question was, is there a modern precedent for someone in Sam's position now, with three years worth of mediocre play, becoming a top ten guy as you claimed? Because even if Sam's ceiling is a game-managing QB in the middle of the pack Garoppollo/Carr/Cousins/Goff range, you need to find better, as teams such as the 49ers are figuring out. And they passed on Sam for the cost of a second rounder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
