    the vikes and OConnell really like Darnold...He isnt going any where, after the way he was treated by the rest of the league, he seems very content in the north. and with the amount of weapons he has, why would you want to go anywhere else

    good points...but, i have never been a huge fan of "1st round" QBs...seems like they are more fluff than substance, alot of the time.

    I thought the same thing when the Bengals drafted JaMarr Chase he turned out to be pretty good.

    Darnold is a FA and Vikes drafted McCarthy to be the future.

    Steelers should absolutely be looking Darnolds way in the offseason.

    For every good 1st round Wr, I can give 2 wrs that are good, that were taken beyond the 1st round .
    A Wr is dependent on the OL, and the Qb.

    No thank you! Darnold will be nowhere as successful here in Pittsburgh. Doesn’t have the weapons that he has In Minnesota. It will be back to his Carolina days.

    Still wished the Steelers got Rattler… we will have another chance next year to grab a cock qb…Sellers!
    Rattler could’ve sat behind Wilson for a couple of years! Like his ceiling way more than Fields

    None of those teams is a contender with Russ, except maybe the niners. And they may go after Fields. Those other teams on your list will rebuild through the draft. They wont spend big money on a 37 year old Qb

    He COULD.

    Pickens, Austin, Ro Wilson and another top tier FA. What he WON'T have is a creative OC!

    this is why I keep saying that Minkah is going to have a looooong talk in the offseason.

    get out the axe - the Wizard of Khan is coming........

    Did Goodell forbid the Steelers from making anymore moves to improve the team???? :smiley1:

    Pickens is one of the best WR in the league, find another WR either in the draft or FA and Darnold would do fine.

    You are basing this on one decent season out of 7???
    30 overall tds, 11ints, and 7 fumbles.
    Wilson had better numbers than that in Denver, and people said He was done.

    Decent season :lolol:

    He’s one of the top QB’s this year. Sixth in passing yards, fifth in passing touchdowns, fourth in passer rating, and fifth in yards per attempt.

    That's decent if Wilson had 27 overall tds, 7 int, and 3 fumbles, and You said He was done.
    Also....I don't want to bring up the past, but You have wanted DeShawn Watson, and A Rodgers when they left their past teams, and We have seen how that has turned out.
    No thanks. I need more than one decent season out of 7 to convince me to pay a Dude that money.

    I agree with the one good season. I still don’t trust him.

    Awesome season! But one season doesn’t put you in HOF. I still don’t trust him to sign him here in the burgh

    But GM’s do dumb things

    Wilson has more mobility than Cousins and he cost a lot less.

    Nah, he played too well (and won too many games as a starter) to only get 5mil a year. He will make more than Minshew at 12.5mil/yr... I bet its somewhere in the 15 million a year range for 2-3 years.
