Solomon Thomas, yea I could see a pass given there. One bad pick at the top of round 1 during your first year, it happens.
3 first rounders and a 3rd is a fireable offense, too reckless no matter what you did with late round picks. The only guys that could get away with something like that would be BB or Andy Reid. Guys who bring in Super Bowl trophies.
Clearly Kyle and Co. are going to get away with it unless Brock has a major regression and Darnold can't salvage his career here.
I agree with your description of the trade, though not the broad analogy you're using and your overall conclusion. It was extremely reckless and horrific strategy.

I think in this case it might have more to do with Kyle messing up on developing him than Trey himself. Kyle put no work in on helping Trey get to the next level. Sitting him year 1 for Jimmy G of all people was beyond stupid. Especially considering that the reason you traded all that draft capital was because you weren't happy with your current QB.
Strongly disagree. Letting Lance sit was a great thing, it was obvious Jimmy was better than him. Lance is probably the highest drafted guy that is that raw. Except maybe now Richardson
kyle then handed Lance the keys but he got injured.
idk how it's kyles fault. Lol if you want to blame anyone, blame Purdy for balling out and winning everyone over to the point where they didn't see it worth going back to Lance.
Well you could fault Kyle for running Trey so much. And if that's all Trey could do in year 2 of Kyles system then either it's an indictment of Kyle not preparing him or Trey not being worth what they gave up for him.

There is no science to drafting QBs, that much we know. I wouldn't fire Kyle over this, odds are not in your favor to fare better and it's not going to go over well with your locker room.
I don't make knee-jerk reactions, I would personally look at and weigh the entire body of work before making rash decisions.

I agree with you but find the QB approach in the 2021 off-season very unsettling. "Lets trade a bunch of picks for Stafford!"
Oh crap the Rams beat us to it.
"Ok let's try to trade a bunch for Rodgers! He is also a proven QB who can take this team to a SB win"
Crap that's not working either.
"Ok, let's take all those picks and trade up 9 spots to #3 overall, then figure out who to take... maybe the raw guy we will have to develop"
