How good he ultimately is definitely remains to be seen. But I think we will see massive improvement in a new spot from him.Jets handled that terribly. And will be funny if Wilson ends up a bust.
I'm trying to think of an "aspirational comparison" for Darnold to shoot for.He's made 38 starts. His career QB rating is 78.6. In 2020, he was dead last in passer rating among quarterbacks with enough attempts to qualify.Of course it depends on your definition of "massive improvement," but I'm kind of thinking that this type of improvement from a player that has played that much is incredibly rare.Maybe Rich Gannon? IDK...
Brees didn't get it figured out in San Diego until year 4. 11 less starts thru year 3 but some similarities.Darnold:Year 1: 13 starts, 77.6 ratingYear 2 + 3: 25 games started, 28TD, 24 Int, 79.1 RatingYear 3: Rating of 72.7. 35 of 35 QBs w/ enough attemptsOverall QB rating years 1 thru 3: 78.6Brees:Year 1: only 27 attempts (backup to Flutie)Year 2 + 3: 27 games started; 28TD, 31 Int, 73.1 RatingYear 3: Rating of 67.5. 28 of 32 QBs w/ enough attemptsOverall QB rating years 1 thru 3: 73.7
OK. That's decent. I doubt that Darnold will be an all pro in year four but one can dream...
I believe Matt Campbell will get the Lions job.
Falcons not paying any of the $15.3 mil due to Julio is a huge win.
Julio’s injury history, age, and contract were gonna prevent the Falcons from getting any massive haul. But if he can stay healthy for a couple years, what a steal for the Titans. Brown, Julio, and Henry is a pretty gnarly 3 headed monster of skill positions.

Adios and next man up, hey?
