That is a HUGE piece of a rebuild they already have. Why in the hell would they let him walk?

Stupid.

(Also, on what planet is a trade for Geno Smith blockbuster?!)

He's a legit NFL QB. That's more than half of the teams have, in my opinion. That qualifies. I'd take Geno before I'd pay Darnold $40m.

And I'm not so sure on Cross now. If they want to start a new clock on paying a LT, they'll be in position to draft one next year for sure. This looks like a tank job.

I laughed at the idea of them trading Cross, too. I still don't think it's likely, but if Veach came in offering a couple of 1sts, maybe they would.

They could land Conerly at 18 and Booker at 31 to start on rookie OL contracts this year and then have ammo in a better QB class next year.
