That's barely backup QB money.

Well that's good because he's barely a backup QB

Darnold to Seattle too. 

 

Former Vikings QB Sam Darnold reached agreement today on a three-year, $110.5 million contract including $55 million guaranteed with the Seattle Seahawks

 

I hesitate making a separate thread for every signing. I get Fields is relevant because its in the division.

 

Sam got his money. 3 years 100.5M with 55M guaranteed.

He has all the physical tools you could want.   Pittsburgh proved you could win with him as long as you could run the ball and play defense.    Smart coaching can hide his inability to read a full field.    That said, I hate the Jets,

The worry with Fields is whether he is just too good to stop you being in position to draft one in the top 5 next year?

 

Yes, a positive for the Bills, IMO. He's never getting anyone to a Super Bowl and he's just average enough to keep you from bottoming out while ruining your draft position.

Well you kinda need one to play..... I think the concern is less this draft. I think it is more does he take you out of next year's draft position?

They should have just stuck with Tyrod and went from there

Fields isn’t good. I’ll never understand teams signing mediocre QB’s. I’d much rather take a swing at the draft (and yes I’m aware this is a terrible QB draft year)

 

I would just never sign a QB who I didn’t think was a franchise guy

 

I guess they probably need a QB (mediocre or not) to help sign players in free agency?

[Donuts and Doritos]

THIS is my favorite free agent signing today!

 

Please, dear God let him be their QB1.

And ppl thought Darnold was no good....until he found the right place.

Love this move for the Jets 😂. I hope they waste their first round pick on QB Shadeaur Sanders also  🤞🏻

Geno Smith too.  Zach Wilson will pop out of nowhere in 2030.  Rodgers tore his Achilles there and Favre tore a tendon in his biceps there.  Only Chad Pennington can avoid the Jets QB curse.

[BullBuchanan]

This is hilariously bad. if you're going to sign Justin Fields, you might as well just take the cheapest guy you can find and spend the rest of the money building up your trenches and then draft 5 QBs.

[Wacka]

NY, where QB careers go io die.

The Chad Pennington that won CPOY twice becuase he needed science to build him a new shoulder?

He might convince Wilson to stay in NY. That said Jets gonna Jet.
