Only way this makes sense is if we’re bringing in a big time player otherwise it’s just compounding the problem.

how?

 

18 mil in cap space could upgrade several positions

 

otherwise that 18 mil is holding a clipboard. 

 

obviously depends on the pieces in the trade, but i fail to see how this is compounding things. if anything its expediting  righting a wrong.

What is their idea of a young player? Chubba Hubbard, Terrace Marshall? I mean… we don’t particularly need anymore cap room this year so if we have to give away decent players to get rid of him then you might as well just let him finish out his 5th year.

Nobody wants Chuba thats like any 5th round RB any given year. We got Foreman for $2M and he's an immediate upgrade

All that tells me is we are thinking QB at 6. Which would be a huge mistake with the OL talent available.

Because it doesn’t make sense to give up a young player just so a team takes darnold and his 19 mill cap hit. It’s just one year and we’re free. We have enough cap as it is. It compounds things because we already gave up a 2nd for Darnold and now we’re gonna give up a young player to get rid of him? Just compounding the horrific mistake of trading a 2nd for him and then signing off on his 5th year contract without seeing him play a down.

the only way this makes sense is if we’re getting a big time player and need more cap room. 
 

I swear to god if this is so we can trade for Jimmy g I’m done with this team.

It won't be fun but Rhule should be tied to Darnold, fix the line and coach the guy you gambled on.

I don't really want any of 'em.

But I'm getting myself prepared for the idea that I'm gonna have to hope for the best with one of 'em.

Bad time for the coaching staff to decide they want a rookie QB.

I still can't believe they didn't keep Teddy and draft Fields last year.

He wants to play….he’s just smart and wants to get paid. He’s gaming the system understanding that if he forces a trade he gets paid. It’s smart. 

Talking about not needing to watch film doesn't scream "smart" to me.

I just don't get that logic.  He obviously is horrible and won't be playing here again and he's on the last year of his deal.  Why not just essentially buy him out because you're paying him for the year anyway, and just pay him to go away...  why would I offer assets to another team to do what I can do myself by just buying him out and sending him away?  His hit is off the books next season anyway and its not like we're going to use that 18M this season, so whats the point?

huh?

 

why wouldnt we use that 18 mil?

 

depends on what we give up, but getting 18 mil in cap space would go a long way.

We’re gonna give up an asset to get rid of Rhule’s mistake? That is some trueeeee BS. We better get something in return for that young player other than just “take this poo 5th year option we shouldn’t have given up anyway.”

depends on the asset

 

giving up an average run of the mil player for 18 mil that could get us several good players..

 

what am i missing here? seems like a no brainer

depends on who the young player is

 

Someone like Chuba or Shi smith?

 

thats a no brainer!!    you are basically giving up Chuba or Shi and getting 18 mil in return..

I’d rather keep Shi. They can have Chuba or Fletch.
