Geno Smith open to Seattle drafting a QB

[djb28]

If we had a line and could run the ball and be more balanced I do not see why Geno couldn't do better back there. He has many upsides.

Sam Darnold looked very good yesterday, is relatively young and is a FA next season. Should we consider making a run at acquiring him?

Absolutely. He's only 27. He wasn't exactly handed much to work with before this season. Kid is a hell of a QB and he makes damn good decisions. Some of those throws yesterday were ridiculous.

I'd take Darnold every day of the week over geMEH

There’s a good reason he was a high draft pick and he was pretty darn good at USC.

Oh yeah. As a fellow Dawg fan, I know you remember how he kicked us in the gut in college. Kid has a ton of talent.

He has many downsides too that balance it out.

A view of performance pattern charts illustrates things in a perspective stats don't.
Geno is a consistent performer. Turns out that may not be the kind of consistence we need.

Darnold is going to command big money. Not sure the Hawks can afford him.

Really depends on what the price tag ends up being. One single good year won’t get him top pay that’s for sure.
