Taken from today's ESPN.com/newyork: as opposed to.... Ok.. who do you want between the two??? Gimme the guy that wants to be the man, come in and kick ass from the get go.
Saw this too, it's funny to me because one seems hesitant and would probably stay in school versus coming out and the other is ready to go and help whichever team drafts him. It's still early, the draft is nowhere near and we have no clue who will be our GM or HC, but from these statements I would agree. Give me the kid who is ready to be the man, work his ass off, and demand the respect of the players around him through hard work.
Love Voch Lombardi's film reviews!!! Been watching him for a few months, super informative, and down to earth. I'm looking forward to his film breakdowns closer to the 2018 draft. They will be very in depth.
Well, a ton can change based on how the season goes for these guys, but I can't help but feel Darnold will return to school or somehow be missed out on by the Jets. I'll be very interested to watch him play this year, but fortunately there are a handful of other very promising prospects like Allen, Josh Rosen, Mason Rudolph, and Luke Falk. Hopefully the Jets can have their pick. Barring Bryce Petty absolutely blowing everyone away this season (not just playing okay or decently, lighting it up), they need to go QB in round 1.
At the end of the day I think both guys would be happy to come here. Or at the very least, I dont think going to the Jets would deter them from going back to school. I mean, the alternatives are likely Cleveland, Buffalo, Jacksonville, or other crappy teams. Just as pathetic as the Jets. I'll take Allen right now, but I reserve the right to change my mind with this upcoming season.
Give me the guy intelligent enough to recognize a bad situation and stay as far away from it as possible. We've done good energy and a can do attitude, it doesn't work here. We need players and coaches to come in here and let the team know just how miserable they are. Power through misery, it's the way forward. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
I would stay in school to avoid the Jets. I might switch sports too. They are toxic and a joke these days. If you are an intelligent QB and see how they treated Sanchez, then Geno, then Petty, then Hack, you wouldn't want to play there either.
This talk of a prospect staying in school to avoid playing for Jets is so beyond ridiculous. Darnold may very well stay in school and it will have zero to do with avoiding the Jets and everything to do with the fact that he will still have two years of eligibility left. I get it, the Jets suck right now just like every team that has ever had the first pick in the draft in the history of the NFL draft.
On his podcast he made fun of "Justin Herbert" saying no one named Herbert can be an NFL QB. THAT is going to bite him in the ass!
He makes a lot of silly comments, but is very funny and seems to have a good eye. It's bizarre that he thought Allen was going to be in the same draft as Kizer and Watson, however.
Jarrett Stidham is the guy I want. Waiting for pics of him in his Auburn uni to come out so I can update my avatar. 13:55 "...Jarrett Stidham got some accuracy. He got some [ball] placement. He got some touch. That's quarterback ass whoop right there...Damn" - Voch Lombardi
“Jarrett’s passes are so beautiful,...,when they’re coming at you, you think this thing is kind of like a gift from God.” -
Taking a slightly different approach, i think all 3 of these QBs if asked should defer from talking about the pros / draft altogether at this point and be focused on their college team and upcoming season. Darnold especially, kid is playing for a legit playoff contender. Now I get they are human and of course are thinking about the future, but you can at least give the perception your priorities are where they should be for the most part.
It's potato logic for Darnold. No matter when this cuck comes out, some shitbag team who's been the cum rag of the league will be targeting him. Why not tank USC's season, be mediocre and hope you're a mid round pick who goes to New England? Fuck these entitled millenial cucks who can't be bothered to put effort in meanwhile expect a silver platter to be served up with marginal expenditure.
