There were a plethora of quarterbacks to draft in the 2018 NFL Draft and Sam Darnold was at the top of many people’s draft boards. He was highly successful at the quarterback factory that is the University of Southern California. Darnold threw for over 7,000 yards in two seasons as a starter.

Darnold has turned out to be one of the worst quarterbacks in his draft class, despite being given the most opportunity. Darnold became the youngest opening day starter in NFL history when the Jets put him under center for the season opener. After three dismal seasons in the Big Apple, the Jets have shipped Darnold to Carolina for a chance to restart his career.
