Brees and Favre both took their teams to the playoffs those years.

The 3 QBs you're talking about were 25, 26 and 25 in the year you mentioned. Darnold is only 23 right now. No guarantee he will be anywhere near them, but he's got 2 more years before he even gets to their age. Still has a chance to develop into a star. I think in his young career he's had several coaches and OCs and a very porous OL. I wouldn't consider him a bust yet, and if you could get him on the cheap, it's worth the risk. Unless they re-sign either Rivers or JB, they save 46 million in cap hit after the season.
