Quick thoughts on SEA signing Sam Darnold to 3 yr, $110 mm (55 gtd)
-That’s a reasonable deal—similar to the Baker contract. 2 yrs basically.
- Will likely cost about 10 APY less than Geno, plus the 3rd
- For him to be an upgrade on Geno, tho, they’d have to REALLY fix the IOL. I’m skeptical.

Geno & DK both had serious attitude issues last year. IE the 1st 49ers game. Flashes of brilliance followed by WTF was that?!? Go Hawks!
(huge caveat that we have loads of evidence of them being woefully inept at doing that)
IOL improvement is absolutely key to SEA watchablility next season.
Not really excited about Darnold but I'll withhold full judgement until we spend all this capital and draft picks.
In fact he picked up a Ravens gem today.
He just has to provide similar performance AND Schneider has to use the extra cap room and draft pick effectively. Easier said than done.
JS needs to be fired on the spot. He’s single-handedly, destroying the Seahawks.
So while iOL *absolutely* needs to improve, I’m not sure it’s fair to say Darnold can’t be an improvement w/o a better OL.
(Btw I’m not trying to be argumentative, I’m genuinely curious as to your reaction to Hugh’s comments and quoted stats; they painted a pretty favorable picture)
But what the hell is their plan going forward? This just feels like shuffling chairs. Do you expect a day 2 qb?
We definitely need to improve our OL and better get that done!
But I’m a middle child. 🤷🏻♂️
"Geno" than Sam Darnold could ever be. 🤷♂️
JSN is better than you’re giving credit for.
Now, they're near the top of the league in cap space going into FA, which officially started today, and the draft.
But it looks like we're still content to shop off the clearance rack.
John needs to be fired‼️
So... sorry... paying a guy to hit a ball or throw a pass or make a basket or putt a ball or put a puck in a net... millions and millions of dollars...
... IS NOT OKAY...
I do like the idea of having Klint Kubiak having history with Sam on the 49ers though.
I'm an OSU fan so I love me some JSN, but the Seahawks seem confusing with their timelines here.
That's my initial read on it.
May need a bubble since that don’t have a dome.
Again, enjoy the Raiders. With any luck, we'll meet in the Super Bowl
John needs to go!
We saw him look better with the Steelers in his time as a starter. I'm sure he'll be the long term answer with the Jets. He's only 26!!! Lol
That was Geno Smith's biggest downfall.
... and getting rid of DK was a must. He was becoming a distraction.
