JJ McCarthy has shown absolutely nothing. I know it's pretty much his rookie year but the ones who have it at least show glimpses. I don't think he does. 

I could be dead wrong and I am a Michigan homer, but I still think McCarthy is going to be great. They need to be patient with him. These early injuries have really derailed him.

I just haven't seen anything at all from him that says he is gonna be any good. I could be wrong, but usually rookie QBs show something. I can't think of a single good thing I have seen from him yet

Could not agree more.  He was over drafted and has bust city written all over him.

I have been surprised he hasn’t flashed more especially with all those elite receiving options and a QB whisperer as a head coach. But I do like his moxy and he is a natural winner. I think his two wins this year showed some glimpses of it. 
 

But nowadays, QBs have such a short runway. I can see them walking away from him next year.

I never understood why he was rated so highly coming out of Michigan.

Minnesota should have kept Darnold. The blew it and set their franchise back another 3-5 years. Now Jefferson will want out too. 

They’re going to have to figure out what to do with Addison and Mason too

Does anyone realize how how his salary is and that we are tight on the cap? This isn’t madden 

Even Madden wouldn't let you do this

[billieve420]

Outside of Alec Pierce don’t think there is any WR that would make huge difference unless the Bills can swing a trade for one.

[JaCrispy]

Bills need to offer 2 first round picks for this guy…enough nickel and diming the WR room…

 

Then I would draft another in the middle rounds…

If only we could’ve drafted him

We had an equally good player who is continuing to elevate the level of play in New England.  We simply missed the mark on keeping him part of this offense.  That is on Brady.

2 firsts and Keon is my first phone call if I’m Beane in the offseason.

They would be more likely to do the deal without Keon Coleman

Meanwhile we are going to have to figure out what to do with Palmer, Samuel, and Knox 🤣

Not sure Beane will have that kind of leverage from his couch…here’s hoping 🤞🏻

Harbaugh jumped his draft up so much.  Until Harbaugh signed with Chargers, I don’t recall many pundits having J.J. even in the first round. He just happened to get drafted in a qb needy draft.  He was what, the 5th QB taken?  Any other year, he would have been a late 2nd/3rd rounder.

It would be silly to ignore the growing rift between Diggs and the coaching staff dating as far back as Dorsey, at least. And then of course the rift grew to freeze out Josh Allen as well. (Might even have been reciprocated, privately, at that point.) 

 

But yes, the Brady-led offense has had major issues consistently getting the ball to WRs who run routes past the line of scrimmage. Diggs, to his discredit, also failed to come through in the playoffs the last couple seasons he was in Buffalo, on an individual level. Moving on simply had to happen, unfortunately.

I love multiple posters bagging on JJ when he didn’t play. At least look at the box score before commenting. 
 

 

No one was specifically talking about him playing today. He was drafted to be their future, they let Darnold walk, and JJ hasn’t looked good at all. 
 

This thread is about Justin Jefferson and posters are discussing him possibly wanting out because JJ doesn’t look good. The conversations has nothing to do with today’s game, besides Jefferson’s lack of comment after today’s game being the spark for this conversation.  
 

You’ve really missed the mark if you think all of this conversation is about one game with a backup qb.

Its a Shanny system curse.

 

Obviously KOC liked JJ, and Shanny liked Trey Lance. 
 

They can wring a lot of production out of physically limited, smart QBs. And then those QBs limitations demonstrate themselves, so they go hunting for the physically talented player to mold, and it can end up disastrous.

 

Brock Purdy bailed out Kyle, but no one is bailing out KOC if McCarthy flames out.

 

Kinda sucks for them honestly. Tough position. 

 

And Brian Billick liked Elvis Grbac and dumped his SB winning QB (Trent Dilfer) and never sniffed a Super Bowl again.

 

* Interesting Elvis fact. He has brother named Engelbert.  Guess his parents liked guys with pipes.

It was insane they didn’t try and keep Darnold IMO.  I get it if someone out bids them, but they didn’t even try and banked on an unproven rookie coming off injury with no contingency.

I called it when the Vikings got rid of Cousins AND Darnold. They thought KOC could make just any QB into an All-Pro (and for good reason since he was on a hot streak, even with Josh Dobbs). But you really cant just stick "anyone" in at QB.

 

Not mentioned yet is that the Vikes also had Daniel Jones... but they chose curtain number 3.

To those  bagging on JJ, whether he played or not today isn't relevant.

 

Many people have already seen enough and don't feel like they need to see him play again.

Absolutely no way he’s going to want to stick around for whatever it is they’re doing in Minnesota.   
 

He will be 27 in June.

I don't feel anything for any other franchise considering what the Buffalo Bills have gone through for 65 years

[Buffalo Ballin]

Justin Jefferson wants out NOW lol

 

We should go all in on a trade for him. Give them what they want. 2 firsts? ok. Done.

 

Minnesota Vikings needs an entire rebuild. 2 first round picks way more appealing than 1 prime Justin Jefferson for them.
