The Samster showing off that big arm:

And don't forget about 'Major Juice':

I laughed when I read a few outlier online draft profiles saying McCarthy had an 'average arm', lol.

Well that's hardly a surprise, Darnold tends to melt under pressure.
The idea he's going to "mentor" JJM just makes me cringe though. Mentor him on stuff like where to drop your uni in the team laundry and leave the QB mentoring to the staff, please.
I think the Darnold could give him advise about maybe some rookie pitfalls, things he'd wish he'd known, etc. As far as mentoring on what it takes to succeed in the NFL, no.....but it doesn't mean he couldn't be a positive influence. Darnold is playing for his next team anyway, one and done.

You're right Sticky, I had not thought of all the possible mentoring moments... "Hey kid lemme warn you about what happens when you throw as many picks as touchdowns for six years."
JJM: "What happens, my wise mentor?"
Sam: "You get 10 million bucks !"
Ha ha, see? Exactly!
I guess we'll just have to wait and see. A cautionary tale like Darnold can have value for a guy like JJM by saying, 'don't do what I did and here's why'. The Vikings needed a bridge QB that maybe had a little upside, hence Darnold.

It would be so Viking: draft a top 10 QB for the first time ever and Darnold knocks it out of the park.

I think it would be a hoot if Darnold has a Pro Bowl Season...
Make em squirm in Eagan and it would be a blast for the fans too.
What a shocker that would be!
