Darnold just needs to be replacement level and he's already much better than as a Jet, he was the worst QB in the league by advanced metrics since he came into the league (ignoring Rosen's one historically awful year). But the Mahomes situation is why the Chiefs are a well run organization and the Jets and others are not. They realized they had plateau'd with Alex Smith and went for a high upside replacement who needed development, and then proceeded to develop him properly. The Jets don't have the infrastructure to draft and develop a QB who needs development, instead they are throwing him right into the fire. Not completing 0-16 and getting the sure thing in Lawrence will haunt them for years.

Someone like Tennessee right now should be targeting a high upside replacement to Tannehill because Tannehill is a very similar QB to Alex Smith. More of an elite game manager than elite QB, but would be good for a high upside QB to learn under and maybe become that elite QB.
