Wentz or Darnold?

[Ironshaft]

Original question: Darnold or Wentz?

I would trade no more than a 2021 3rd round pick or 2022 2nd round pick for Darnold. While he could bomb here, his skill set is too good to not try and rebuild he career in a well run franchise in an offense with a strong O-Line and run game

Wentz? Not an option, IMO. Too expensive for the potential disaster he could be if he does not regain form.

Why is Wentz not an option, especially if he's cheap from a compensation to acquire perspective? If he costs a 3 or 4, as the most recent article on the Athletic suggests, the Colts would get him as a QB with a 4 year $98.4 million deal with $47.4 in guaranteed money, $25.4 of which comes off the books in the first year. To me, that makes Wentz a 1 year gamble. If he's good, you have your franchise QB for 3 years at well below market. If he's bad, June 1 designate him for an $11 million dead cap hit over 2 years and draft your franchise QB of the future. Either way you end up paying well below market for the QB position which allows for keeping the core of the team together much easier.

Well, if you could get either of them without sacrificing a 1st round draft choice, I'd be happy. I'd rather it was Darnold, but if Wentz becomes the cheaper draft pick option, I'm OK with that.

Let me make this perfectly clear, I have no interest in getting Wentz, but if I had to make a deal I would want Phillys first round pick for us to absorb his ridiculous contract, and Wentz, I’ll give Philly our second or third pick this year.

Well, let me make this perfectly clear. That deal ain't happening.

That's not going to happen. You're on the record, but as Ballard said, there's going to be a reason each of these guys is available. If the Colts don't want to trade up for a QB in the draft, they're going to have to take a guy with some perceived warts and believe in their development team to fix those warts. Who that guy is remains to be seen.

Eagles are asking for two 1s for Carson Wentz, which has led to some dial tones, including from one team previously perceived to be a favored landing spot.

The hell with that. Two first round draft picks for Wentz? Fuck off Eagles.

There is only one qb on the trading block worth 2 firsts. Watson, and that's it.
