OT: Shamless gloating of Sam Darnold

[NJ-STEELER]

Carolina gave up 3 draft picks for Darnold and I believe we have seen the best from Darnold and IMO there is no upside.

I would much rather pay a roster minimum than give up a 6th in 2021, and a second and 4th in 2022.

I think Carolina will regret this move. If Haskins doesn’t pan out, I don’t think
anyone will regret it in our org.

regret what? a 6th rd pick?

a 2nd and 4th is actually "worth" a 3rd round and 5th round pick the following year

you wouldn't give that up for a chance at a franchise QB ?

we gave up that much for loudermilk, schobert and avery williamson for christ's sake

if Darnold wins the NFL MVP award, will you admit you were wrong?

[SteelerOfDeVille]

it's funny how 3 games in Carolina wasn't enough to prove him to be good, but 2 games are now enough to prove him to be bad.

Both sides need to chill... LOL

I did think it was worth a tire kick if he'd be cheap... Haskins works for now.

My own dream scenario is Houston gets tired of trying to get someone to pick up Deshaun Watson... I'd probably give up picks and/or anybody not named TJ Watt for a 26 y/o 3x pro bowler with a career passer rating over 100...

I'm not touching Deshaun Watson. Pun intended.

Nope, def not worth it if the franchise QB is Sam Darnold. He is a known quantity.

Its all jokes but I simply believe Sam isn’t the man. I wouldn’t trade picks for him.

Wouldn’t have traded picks for Haskins either.

before this year in carolina what was your " known quantity"?

Yea. Kinda strange Darnold doesn't get the 'dysfunctional org' treatment while with the Jets like Haskins got with the WFT.

Weird question. He has over 40 starts in the NFL. No thanks.

Darnold definitely had dysfunction but he also had a lot more starts. No thanks.

He plays a boring brand of football.

Agreed. We got Haskins cheap and it was a no lose scenario. Giving up three draft picks for Darnold was crazy.

Wentz must skip leg days at the gym. He’s always hurt.

Pretty much all of these QB’s like Darnold, Wentz, Jimmy G and such are just more expensive Mason Rudolph’s IMO.

Really like Wentz coming out of college. The injuries derailed his career but he's looking real good against BAL tonight.

The Ravens are like Notre Dame. Both play terrible football through three quarters, then turn it on in the 4th. It was like 25-9 a minute ago and now it’s 25-25 likely heading to OT.

Yeah, he looks good tonight. Too bad the kicker couldn’t finish the job in regulation.

Ravens win. What a buzzkill.
