Darnold and Mayfield will be available for the taking after the season for the taking I believe. This is not the place I would go if I were them. I think a rehab with McVay or Shanahan might prolong their careers.

I like how you insinuated him beating out Cooper Rush like he couldn’t also beat out Prescott. Dak is not that much better than Rush. It’s an extremely minuscule improvement. If Darnold is good enough to beat out Rush, he’s good enough to beat out Dak. For a cheaper price too.

Dak is Dak, but Sam Darnold has been a first round bust in every sense of the term. If he's your idea of an upgrade then I'm glad you're not the GM of the Cowboys.

Darnold needs to get to the level of competent back up 1st. I guess it could be worse he could be Josh Rosen.

Haha at the people that say Dak is marginally better than Rush or that Rush is better....

Tell me you can't judge QBs without telling me you can't......

Darnold has lots of talent. His problem is between the ears. I do think in the right scheme he could be a game manager who has an all pro arm that on occasion could hit some wonderful deep throws. However, he's always hurt and he always turns the ball over. Just like death and taxes its a certainty.

Are you serious? He's 3rd string on one of the worst teams in the league........yet in your mind, he's good enough to not only be our backup but our starter as well. LOL.......and you guys wonder why it's hard to take ya seriously.

He's always been a turnover machine.......
