Because ball protection has never been in his DNA.

If they win the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes he will be.

I think Darnold is only 24 with three years experience in the league.

I'm asking myself what would Bill Belichick give up, and the answer I'm coming up with is a 5th or a 4th. Or maybe swap Jacoby one for one.

That’s not a bad idea but I’m not sure the Jets would bite. They’re obviously tanking for Lawrence and Jacoby would keep them just good enough to miss him.

Given that our second is likely to be in the mid-to-late part of the round, I’d think it’d be a worthwhile gamble assuming Eason doesn’t show enough before then to suggest he’d be a better solution. We have a good trading history with the Jets too.

It would be a significant gamble though, as we’d be giving a guy with a very mediocre performance history the keys to a young, quality offense on a playoff contending team. The decision would likely make or break the following two seasons. Also, a decision would need to be made on his 5th year option before we have the chance to see him play with the team.

His injury history doesn’t concern me too much as he was pretty stout at USC, and most of his pro injuries have been pretty fluky. Plus, it’s not like he’s been playing behind a great offensive line in NY.
