This is to all you I Hate Sam Darnold Jet fans, have yo really thought things out??? This will be Darnold's 4th year, his 3rd different HC. These are my arguments why you should give him a chance to to prove himself. First, he has played with one of the worst OLs in football. Second, his running game was virtually non-existent due primarily to that OL. Third, his receiving corps again less than stellar with NO TE,. I l know, I know, Herndon was supposed to be a great TE but hasn't materialized yet, and the only guy semi dependable was Crowder. Robby Anderson a good long threat but when you don't have an OL, hitting long developing plays are hard. Fourth, the opposite side of the ball defense was anemic as well with LWilliams and JAdams leaving. and Fifth , he was saddled with the worst coach in the league Adam Gase. I guess your front office didn't see the miserable job he did in developing Ryan Tannehill in Miami , nor his terrible overall job as HC in Miami. I hope you will agree Mike Vrabel in Tennessee is not known as a QB developer but Tannehill has flourished as a Titan, something he didn't under Gase . Adding all that up I can't see DeShawn Watson Or this kid Wilson would have flourished under the circumstances Darnold has played under, nor probably would even Pat Mahomes become what he has become if he played under Gase and your terrible front office and their many, many mistakes . I say I hope Douglas does the smart thing and trade down and get a boatload of high draft choices for that number 2 spot in the draft. You won't be able to fill every area but you can fortify the OL. the RB and probably the WR position with good early picks. Maybe even get a guy like Friermuth from Penn State and address the front part of the DL and LB corps. You notice no DBs here, to me they are a luxury, only to be drafted after you have a decent pass rush and run stopping front seven. I wish you guys well and no I am NOT a big Darnold fan, just look at things and see them for what they are, in this case a bad rap not of Darnold's own doing. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying he is great, but he can be pretty good, just needs something around him instead of the NOTHING he has had for three years.
