I would take Darnold also. Wentz hasn't quite been the same since his knee injury. I think Darnold could be pretty good behind a good offensive line.

Something like. We get Wentz and Philly's 2nd or 3rd this year and they get our 1st next yr. and take the contract.
GOD PLEASE NO !!!!! I'd rather give the keys to Eason then try to get Wentz, he's a fuckin crybaby !!!

Good lord, this is depressing. Choosing between retread qb’s and praying.

Having said that, I’d take Darnold. The Jets may be the worst franchise in the NFL not based in Houston. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Darnold flourished somewhere else.

Who said anything about not respecting Manning? I do recall him requiring his area of the hotel at the super bowl where he was staying to be kept quiet. He could be demanding. Remember him and Saturday yelling at each other during a game? Manning had more pressure on him than any other number 1 pick.

Wentz has nothing to back up being a dick. Light on the resume, no sign of leadership.
You guys are saying the same thing, and you're both right.

If someone is holding a gun to my head? Darnold, I guess.

in 25 years I can't remember anyone cancerous on this team (Vanderjagt, maybe?), we should try to keep it that way.

We need a LT and a QB. There will be good LTs in free agency. They will cost. I would rather have a good/great LT and take this line to the next step. I say this because it will cost somewhere around 18K to sign them. I'm not sure we can afford that and Wentz. If a trade is possible to move up in the draft for someone Ballard really likes that would be my first choice, along with signing a top LT. I totally agree with the sentiment that this looking at retreat QBs sucks big time.

Is there a possibility an acceptable quarterback would be available outside of the first round, at least from the perspective that they can compete for the job with Eason?

Perhaps bringing in a veteran that nobody desires to start for their team but has that ability, competing with Eason and another young guy, at least gives you some form of competency at the position going into next year?

If there's no answer at LT @ #21, and no player available that is worth the pick, perhaps they can trade out of the first and use the additional draft capital to secure a better pick next year in order to position themselves to address the issue more effectively?

Darnold. If he gets out of NY, he'll be a top-10 QB within two years.

I've talked to an NFL source, not w/the Eagles, who hears a Wentz trade is close. That isn't first-hand information. I do feel that the longer we go without Wentz saying something like "I'm happy to be an Eagle and excited about playing for Nick Sirianni," the closer we get...
