I don’t disagree that Sam is better today.  But he is pointless in the long term and short term.  I’m merely prioritizing Corral developing and getting better and more reps over Sam.  Because regardless of what Sam is owed there is no point to him.  There is one to Corral getting work and opportunity.  More learning opportunity as the 2. 

I want the guy with the best chance to win. That means the guy who plays the best. I am tired of losing week in and week out. Last year we won 2 games at home. That really sucks.

Despite what his salary is---if that is the only reason you keep him on board---a roster spot is worth something.  However, with 3 unproven QBs on the roster, you probably need all of them.

For better or worse, Baker and Darnold have been in the league long enough to be proven.  Corral is the unproven one.  

IMO, I keep Darnold because he is a cap hit, and cap space is worth something to.   And there may come a point this season where we need a third stringer, and Darnold would be acceptable as our third string qb imo.  

But I would be tempted to force him to do kick coverage or something like that. 

  j/k of course.
