WOW!!

I'm saying right now it's a failure.. I'm just not going to agree that it was stupid (with the situation we were in) or that it wasn't worth the effort.. I'd rather take a swing then stay stagnant.. Is all I'm saying..

Cool .. You can act like Menshiew is some secret talented player.. I'm not he is a career backup at best and pretty much a bridge who will lose and hopefully put you in position to get a better QB.. My opinion..

I'm even cool with that.. The effort to try and get better even thoe it didn't work is better then being stagnant.. Imo The compensation isn't going to kill us anyway and way better then 2 or 3 1st round pick and it doesn't work..

Cool but that didn't happen.. There plan didn't work alot of things have happened to effect that... If Cmc is healthy this is a different situation.. If the WR's play at the level we thought they would maybe this is a different discussion... But reality is they gambled and their losing... You still won't convince me that is was a completely stupid plan and with some luck it wouldn't have worked...

Cool what does that get you 7 and 10 8 and 8 record at best and still looking for a QB right?

Because it's a mistake due to the results as of now... You have your opinion I'll have mine.. I will never fault the attempt at not being mediocre... A 2nd 4th and 6th round pick isn't great risk to me... You can still build a team missing one year of a 2nd 4th and 6th round pick... We just traded a 2nd round pick after 2 years and nobody was crying like it destroyed the team... I'm sorry but agree to disagree.. Sometimes you gamble and lose.. It happens..

You were okay with trading 2 for a older Qb.. So now 1 more for a 9 year younger 1 is a problem.. huh??

And I'm fuging tired of Garder Minshew being the saviour to this board.. I swear this place fall in love with the most untalented players ever and put them on a pedestal...lol Minshew is going to become Doug Foultie the more he rides the bench for 6 different teams around here..

You gave up a 2nd 4th and 6th round pick.. The latter 2 have been replaced already.. You didn't give up 3 1st round picks up... You can still build a team without 1 years 2nd round pick... Reality check with this teams history we've been playing without quality 2nd round picks for YEARS!!!

There were reports that other teams were interested in Darnold as well. And if a bidding against myself only loses a 2nd round pick I'm cool with that...

I'm moving the goalposts really?? I'm not coming up with 18 criteria or 30 reason why this and that happened.. The primus stays the same for me.. Players have gone on to other teams and had success even when they sucked on the original team that drafted... Taking a low risk move on a talented that sucked on a different team has been done and worked for other teams... I'm not adding that this guy only threw 4 passes for the original team.. Meaning he sucked so bad he couldn't even get on the field for that team.. But Greenbay with little tape traded for him and Farve succeed... I'm not adding on stipulation to why Steve young and Doug Williams got better getting away from Tampa... Coming up with criteria for this that is goalpost moving..

Doesn't need to be 5 all star player thoe.. And you have Atleast 1 position on the Oline covered...

Really 1 first round pick is a big difference?? Well there is a difference in age and more prime playing years as well.. Stafford is 8 to 9 years older.. Do you think that might alter the compensation a bit??

Cool .. I choose to believe getting a player coming off a major injury to his throwing arm was a risk just as much as finding out if a once thought of top 5 talented pick could be developed with better coaching in a different situation.. Both are similar risk.. You can have your opinion and I can have mine...

He was also coming off major shoulder surgery?? That was a risk that worked out..

Deshaun watson without the legal issues.. So did you think trading for Stafford with 2 1st rounds was a mistake for the Rams??

You can believe what you want.. Facts are it has happened before it wasn't a outbound plan and so far it hasn't worked for us. Whelp Hopefully it works next time we try to resurrect a player.. Like many other teams have done in the past..

How many criteria are you going to come up with to make a point . Does it have to be on every 3rd sunday in August on a leap year for it to be similar situation?? When you have to go as deep as well this guy didn't start right away or he had to do it for 3 years and it had to happen every 4th sunday in a month.. Your point isn't made.. Again agree to disagree..

Brees it has happened..

The point was that it has happened.. I can come up with outlier for anything... Tannahill, Brees , Warner with the Giants, Delhome with the saints.. Alot QB have gotten different scenery and produced at a new team... The point of acting like it a unheard of plan is false..

Doesn't scream high risk either..

All those situation had a legit starter or at least a starting option right?? Did we have that?? Context..

Okay...

Not the same league.. Player get 2nd chances shot quicker now.. Just like Rookie QBS don't sit 2 years before starting now as well.. If we had a Josh Allen maybe we could have done that but ...........

Really?? Okay then...
