This is a great post. I just think Lance has to go to a team that has a clear plan for him. His lack of reps and game experience is going to be really hard to overcome. 2-3 year project at best. I guess the staff figured we didnt have the time or stomach to figure that out

I disagree, from what I saw he has a cannon that can throw ropes into coverage

I like the cut of your jib

If/when a qb falls and we can finagle a 2nd out of Denver to switch spots then Fit is playing next level chess

One thing I havent read on here but maybe its been discussed. But if there is some chance we win 9+ games with SD than we can kiss Brady bye bye

If we dont draft an offensive lineman at 8 I will throw my TV into the bogue sound. There is no way we would pass Sewell or slater if they are there. No way Fit is that stupid. From what I read last night Pitts is shooting up the draft board and if he makes it past ATL than Cincy will pull the trigger making it Chase to Miami. The wild card is Det but its looking like a strong chance Sewell can be had at 8.

I agree 100%, we are trying to thread a needle here but by getting a project in Darnold for basically nothing (this year) it allows us to not have to give up any assets to move up for a project qb, it makes it much easier to build the oline by using pick 8 and hopefully our 2nd. That also means we dont need to pick a wild ass project like Mond in the 3rd. So if we play our cards right it is conceivable that we can instantly fix our oline and probably get depth or maybe a starter at safety in the 3rd. Damn that sounds good to me. After watching Darnold youtube last night one thing that you cannot say is that he doesnt have a cannon. Dude can sling it for sure. I think anyone that doesnt think this trade isnt a positive step for the organization is not looking at things on every level. Again this trade will allow us to immediately fix our line. Our left tackle problem is solved.

I am telling you like I have said for 3 days now, I can easily see now that the staff doesnt want to hitch their wagon to a major project like Lance. He is years away from being a productive starter. ANd I am using Lance as the example as he would likely be the guy still there at 8

Trading for Darnold just made our draft and team building process way more easier. Not giving up any draft capital in 2021 allows us the either the best cornerback or the 1rst/2nd best LT. This expedites the process immensely. And if Darnold turns things around holy hell we just accelerated the timeline by years.

You are a fuger what qb did you want at 8 that is better than SD?

Dude go fug yourself with this negative attitude

If Fit is smart he can instantly upgrade the oline in this draft. 50% chance at Sewell and 100% chance at Slater. Pick one and then do it again in the 2nd and waalah, your line is set for years.

He has a big time arm. Cant wait.

Logic and history say that at least 3 out of the top 5 will bust and we will be getting the 3rd or 4rth best choice

Again maybe you just are not understanding that our staff probably doesnt see a franchise qb in Lance. I say lance because he is the most likely to be there at 8. They would rather look at SD career tape and work with that rather than Lance. Like I said, I like Lance, love his size and arm but you have to admit just reps wise he is years away and even then there is nothing to guarantee he can be an above average starter. Too much risk for a pick at 8. If Fields is there then I think its telling about him as well and we can still trade out

I would 100% bet against it. If that were to happen then we would easily trade out. I am telling you the NFL and their scouting dept do not look at Lance like we do. Like it or not he is a major project. I still do not have a feeling one way or another about Fields. he has talent but damn there is just something there that is throwing me off

Math is not your strong suit is it?

I like Lance a lot, but I also can see the major major flaws in his game and the out right risk we would be taking in selecting him

Those bitches are reliable

Brother until an hour ago I was on your train but now that ship has sailed. We are riding and dying with Darnold. We are not drafting a qb at 8

I said as recently as yesterday that our staff might look at lance at way too big of a project to take on. I mean best damn case scenario is he is two years away from simply starting. Longer still on being a really productive player. I think we want someone to win now

please please please He dominated Chase Young

Nah, I think this pretty much tells us we dont like Lance or dont like how much of a project he is.

Yep. Lets build this puppy the right way. Slater or Sewell at 8, another lineman in the 2nd and lets go. Keeping all of our top picks in this draft is huge. Gonna go crush some darnold youtube now.

Good call.
