If you’re wondering how soft the market is for Darnold, here’s your answer. Spytek gives up a Day 2 pick rather than sign Darnold for zero draft capital.
Now, does Darnold land in Seattle?
QB Sam Darnold’s market has been all over the map the last 24 hours. Once it became known that Seattle was interested in trading with the Las Vegas Raiders last night for Geno Smith, Darnold’s market improved.

Looks like the Raiders want to redo Smith’s deal to the tune of $40 million a year. If true, I’d seriously consider having Spytek tested for CTE.

This doesn't reflect on Darnold, but on the relationship between Carroll and Smith, who Carroll loved having as his QB in Seattle. Geno comes in and instantly runs the same system they had in Seattle.
Interesting. Carrol comes from defensive side. Raiders new OC is Chip Kelly who wasn’t in Seattle.
