ytownblofan Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Hot Take: This is going to actually improve the Browns. Baker tries to force it to OBJ a ton to keep him happy.

H2o Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I believe that OBJ has played his last game in a Browns' uni. They will see Baker thrive without him and will get traded in the offseason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I agree with that. The Browns have looked better without him. I think his personality forces Baker to target him and creates issues. Baker looked significantly better after he went down and utilized his TEs more. I think that is a better fit and will actually help the Browns. I do wish him a quick recovery and hate to see injuries, but I don’t think it hurts the Browns at all to have him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per Garafolo He is set to earn $15.75MM next year. 12.9 of it is guaranteed for injury and converts to a full guarantee if he is on the roster on the 3rd league day. Being that his ACL will not be fixed by March, I think they would have a tough time finding anyone willing to take on that salary for a guy coming off a major injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine with positive rehab reports they will find someone willing to take a shot on him. I fully expect him to never dress for that team again.

The Browns offensive salaries are backward - you don't pay your starting WRs and TE ~$45m annually when your offense runs through two RBs making ~$6M annually.

RalphWilson'sNewWar Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yep. I’m in the boat of this will actually allow Baker to let the plays develop organically and he can go through his reads and make throws more naturally. it is similar to the reason I did NOT want buffalo signing up Antonio Brown with Allen so young in his development.

If the cap goes down market value for the free agents go down. But 15.75 per year seems likely to be at least similar to what Robinson, Golladay, JuJu get on the open market.

BarleyNY Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 That set of stats is from Jake Trotter via Twitter (which I don’t know how to embed here). He also notes that over the last two seasons Mayfield’s completion percentage is 55.6% when targeting OBJ. That’s the worst of any QB-WR tandem in the league over that time.

I’ve gotten to a point where I know injuries like this are going to happen, I prefer them happen to guys who have proven themselves to be douche canoes. With all due respect, I think taking pride in anyone getting hurt (minus trash like Joe Mixon) is a bad look. OBJ is mainly annoying but in reality, he hasn’t done anything criminal. I don’t take any pleasure in him getting hurt and think it’s bad karma. But JMO. 17 minutes ago, dreadlox said: Well didn’t he punch Duke Williams and then run off like a punk? Gilmore I think.

I don’t wish injuries to happen- I would wish them away if possible... but since I can’t, I prefer they happen to immature man children like Beckham who have a propensity for cheap shots, being annoying, running his mouth, and overall being an idiot. I root for no injuries, but if you told me that either OBJ or say Julio Jones were going to tear an ACL, I choose Beckham every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In one aspect, it may actually have taken some pressure off Mayfield. I don't remember which game it was, but earlier this season, I remember a shot of Mayfield on the sideline with Beckham, and Landry, and you could tell he was trying to deescalate the conversation. At the time, my thought was that he looked like a babysitter trying to keep a couple of spoiled kids calm. The Browns may not be better without Beckham, and I'm sure Mayfield will miss having one of his playmakers, but I could certainly imagine that somewhere in the back of Mayfield's head he may have breathed a sigh of relief.
