Damn - signed to the PS on a team where he will have zero chance to ever be a starter. Must not have had a lot of interest....

It's all the "we shoulda drafted a QB #1" haters ragging on the kid. Now Lauletta is their prime target to rag on. I for one hope Webb gets a shot at being a starter for some team. Jets better hope Darnold ain't made a glass.

Jets better hope Darnold ain't made a glass. you know I understand people were disappointed with the Giants not drafting a QB but what’s next? Rooting for Barkley to not play well? Almost impossible to understand rooting against a hard working kid like Webb trying to fulfill his dream just so you can say that you were right about him.

I wish him the best. He’s seems like a real good kid and a hard worker. I hope things work out for him. I guess they’re holding him for back up next year.

Doesn’t seem like the ideal fit for a 3rd-rounder looking to prove that he can be a starter in this league.

Its such a huge battle to get to the NFL takes years of hard work from an early age (in most cases) but to not want someone to succeed is wrong. At least for me it is. I agree 100% with you.

That is a foolish reference. Are you suggesting that if a fan believes it would have been wiser to draft Josh Rosen or Sam Darnold, they are somehow a "hater?"
What twisted logic could point to that conclusion?

Not agreeing with the Barkley pick = wanting Barkley to fail I would LOVE to be proven wrong about the Barkley pick...I just doubt I will be.

I bet when Webb was taking a the snaps as Eli's backup and kind of redeemed himself vs Lions and made it through the Cutdown little did he know he'd end up in the Jets PS. Wow

He might be in a better spot jets are gonna let him develop and he will work hard for them, after a couple years he can get them some picks or who knows maybe if Darnold doesn't pan out he will get a chance there, like the kid glad he's not in the division didn't want to root against him.

Very glad to see he latched onto the Jets. Doesn't have to move. PS players get a minimum of $7,600 per week. Actually according to Jordan Ranaan:
My understanding is that Davis Webb had multiple offers for practice squads. He chose the Jets because he thought it was the best situation for him. He'll also get paid a weekly proration of his regular salary, not the PSquad salary.

Giants pass on Darnold with the #2 pick, Jets pick him at #3. Imagine this: In an ironic twist of fate, Darnold busts after 1.5 years, they promote DAVIS WEBB -- the QB the Giants cut -- from the practice squad, and it is he -- not Darnold -- who ultimately saves the franchise. Talk about throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
Extremely unlikely, I know, but just sayin'

He will have a good chance to make the roster as I’m sure they’ll decide they’d like to stop paying McCown at some point.

I hope this works out well for him.

Darnold fails in the Jet's system, or has some salary dispute over that contract's details - and he winds up starting for the Giants in 2 years?

I agree so maybe "dead horse beaters" is a better term?

I agree so maybe "dead horse beaters" is a better term? Nonsense. Folks are still whining about McAdoo and JR, including some of the folks accusing others of whining about not picking a QB. And BTW..they are also some of the same folks who said we didn't take a QB because they envisioned Davis Webb as the heir apparent.
