Love the first one, the second one seems to high for what he has shown IMO. If we are wanting a project just draft Newman in like the 6th round...

Wouldn’t be the worst move...

Love our roster so far. Unfortunately the two biggest question marks, might be the two most important positions in QB and LT...

So far it sounds like 15-20 players won’t make it to pick 8...

So we have Lawrence, Wilson, Jones, Pitts, and Chase all most likely gone before 8. That means Sewell, Fields, or Slater should be available?

What happens in Vegas...

I’m excited about Bouye. Bouye, Jackson, Melvin, Pride is a solid group of CBs especially before the draft... LT and FS are still needs along with depth.

Add Bouye to our list!

If it’s multiple teams I would think mid round. 3rd round is my dream 4th is more likely...

No way can’t draft a QB. I’ve been told we are married to Darnold....

Was Brees that bad in SD? I thought they let him walk because of his injury, definitely could be wrong.

Probably, but they signed a FA LT and rumor is Burrow really wants Chase...

Love Sewell, but Slater can be just as tough/mean. One of them should fall to us.

Nah it’s takes first rounders to move up for QBs especially the number one pick. If that’s the case we can just take Rattler or JT Daniels.

If it’s that bad we will just draft Howell and be good.

It really just depends on who falls and how high our staff is on that player IMO.

For 3 first round picks like the Niners did? No rookie is worth risking that. Wasting a future 2nd on Darnold, while getting our guy at 8 is a much smaller risk. This is all IF one we likes falls, which I don’t see happening.

Whoever this staff values as a potential franchise QB. Fields would be MY preference, but I have no clue who they want. I mean something crazy might happen and Wilson might fall to 8. Do we still pass on him because we have Darnold? A QB that had a rough start and we traded a future 2nd for isn’t our absolute final answer.

Top 10 on backups?? If we take Fields at 8 he is our guy. Darnold may start like Smith did to Mahomes, but our 2nd rounder next year would be a sunk cost...

I think we are saying the same thing. I’m saying if a guy we like is there at 8 we draft him. Darnold is our backup plan that we locked up.

Verge gave a good breakdown of recent success of 1st round picks vs later in the past 7 years or so. It heavily favored 1st round, but I’m not sure it matters as Darnold was also a first round pick??

A 2nd rounder next year and a 4th and 6th rounder (comp). Far from a huge haul for your next franchise QB. You don’t pass on a top QB talent that falls in your lap unless you have a franchise QB. https://www.google.com/amp/s/sportsnaut.com/new-york-jets-rumors-sam-darnold-trade-080321/amp/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/jetswire.usatoday.com/2021/03/09/8-teams-called-new-york-jets-sam-darnold-trade/amp/ Looks like 8 teams were interested in mid March. In early April we were the one team who kept pushing for him after Ohio St’s Pro Day. They next phase would be waiting until after/during the draft. You would think half of these teams interested aren’t getting their guy in the draft, so then what happens? A bidding war.

Nah I was told we shouldn’t draft a lineman in round two because our old GM did with Little and he sucked....
