Fool me once…..
Darnold doesn’t have me fooled. “QB2” I think he’s still expendable. I don’t think PJ is the greatest option, but honestly, I’d take him +draft picks over Darnold. If Baker goes down, using yalls scenario, we are right where we were predraft. Literally no change, with a whole lot of uncertainty. Darnold looks like Dexter Morgan, but just doesn’t slice it well in a tight spot like him. Darnold shows up for practice, and in a game once he’s pressured he is poor decision maker. My biggest issue is “what are we REALLY losing?” Starting experience, but also losing experience.
And to be honest, NO team loses their QB1 fresh out of a true rebuild(or in the middle of it like we are) and fares well. (I mean it’s been done before, but not with Darnold) Preseason and training camp are to make you feel good about the upcoming season, it’s propaganda. If Darnold didn’t have the guaranteed money, you can bet ya sweet cheeks that he’d be gone already. Look at Teddy, who is a better QB than Darnold.
