Despite Bad Stretch of Games, Sam Darnold's Market is Still North of $30M Per Year, According to James Palmer

I am sorry Justin Jefferson along with Jamar Chase are the two best wide receivers in the league. TJ Hockenson is one of the best tight ends. I do not see Darnold anywhere close to a top QB in this league. Has he earned mid tier money, I guess, but he has Scott Mitchell, Elvis Grbac, Donte Culpepper free agent can't make it elsewhere energy.

$30M/year isn't top QB money, it's mid-tier QB money. I agree that Darnold wouldn't be nearly as successful in most other places, but I think JJ McCarthy has high potential to bust, and given the Vikings' cap situation, they'd be wise to keep him around just in case.
