[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1092071, member: 10086"] It’s not hindsight when you say it beforehand, which myself and others did. Couple that with their secondary QB decision. When they passed on Darnold for a much larger $. They could’ve signed Daniel Jones on the cheap. We now know he signed for $14mil so there’s a good chance earlier in? they could’ve had him for s couple Million $ less. We’re talking ~$12mil area and Making it a QB competition and still only having $20mil total tied up at QB. Which they could’ve pushed his Cap mostly into 2027. That would’ve provided the Vikings a logical failsafe within a tight budget window. Allow JJ to prove himself across Weeks 1-6 area. If they don’t see progression, insert Daniel Jones and give JJ another year to develop. Jones posted d 100%+ Passer rating and would’ve at least been a formidable plan B. Instead they pushed all their chips in on an unknown. An actual total unknown coming off a season ending surgery. Knowing full well most QB’s need a year or two to ramp up. [/QUOTE]
