Seriously though what the hell were they thinking picking up Darnold's 5th year option?

That was probably taken out of context.

What's crazy is what they saw on film isn't too far from the truth.  Darnold does have some similarities to Stafford (play-style wise).  Not quite the same arm strength but Darnold side-arms it a lot like Stafford does, and is able to still get a lot of velocity on it.  Both are gunslingers.  Both have some mobility, Darnold a bit more than Stafford at this point in their careers.  

LIS.  I didn't mind the trade.  It was worth the risk to see if you could tap into his upside.  But picking up the 5th year option was so moronic.
