patman Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Yeah this is nuts. This is projecting a player to be better in your system than he was in the system he was developed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bianconero Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Darnold is on a rookie deal - this is the time to overspend and acquire talent for the New York Jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramxel Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I wonder if they even saw him play the last couple of years.... 17M/year for a guy who is (at this point) a below average starter... Don't even know what to say.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Mosley is a 4x Pro Bowler and 4x All Pro (2nd team). He’s not Kuechly, but he’s an excellent player. This contract is more defensible to me than most of what I’ve seen thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elky Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Notice how it's only bad teams like the Jets that routinely do stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrantikRam Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Do people realize that there are nearly 20 teams that could potentially afford to pay one player this much money - and a few that could pay multiple players this much money (for this season). So what are people expecting? There aren't that money players available to (somewhat) justify paying that much money to, so we get some "overpays" - but this makes so much sense for the Jets. His contract will be up by the time Darnold re-signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Third Rider Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 He will never live up to this contract. You don’t build a good team by over paying players. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a hilarious contract but hey I'm excited for that 3rd round comp. pick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not disagreeing with your point, but are there really 20 teams that could afford it? If so that makes me even more sad considering Panthers only have 17m total.

berlin calling Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Just now, The Third Rider said: He will never live up to this contract. You don’t build a good team by over paying players. Good luck. agreed. how could he live up to that contract,he had a much better team around him in BMore (Defense alone) so his play, much like everyone elses, was increased by all around team effort. good luck to build on him when there is not much of a secondary in place.

And apparently the plan here for the Jets is to just bring in talented guys and have Gregg Williams build the scheme around them. That's not how a good defense has ever been built.
