Even though he's unlikely to ever turn into an elite QB, this a nice trade for Carolina and a million times better than the trade for Darnold. That's what a little leverage will get you.

Doc Brown Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Steal for the Panthers. Baker when healthy is better than Darnold. If it doesn’t work out they have a developing Corral in the wings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) I literally almost had to pick my jaw up off my laptop when I read this news update. I think the compensation back to cleveland is ridiculous! OMG whoa.......AND they still are going to carry part of bakers contract? what a dumpster fire of a franchise.

MJS Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Conditional 5th. Wow. That is good value. Mayfield is a decent QB. He can help take you to the playoffs. He can win playoff games.

Buffalo Boy Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 The best you can say is both the Darnold and Mayfield contract are up at the end of this year. I’m not a Mayfield fan. I think this is classic bridge QB territory. It is also QB purgatory territory as they have a possibility of getting to middle of the draft pack.

wjag Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 So how bad to do want out of the mistake by the lake? Baker: I'll take a 20% pay cut.. I don't need that 3.5M this year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Jabber Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 A #1 overall pick in the draft and the Browns in return get a conditional 5th round pick in two years. What a lousy deal.

We’ve struck it gold twice with Mitch last year, and now Keenum. As far as the trade, it sounds like Baker has a $15 mil. Opportunity to prove himself, the Browns split with the Panthers the $15.5 mil. At Least Mayfield took his guaranteed $ down from $18.8 to $15.5 mil. Fair all the way around and a desperate HC on his 3rd year needs a win. That will be tough going against New Orleans and Tampa twice. I know Winston is not the best, but they have a good team, and he did go 5-2 before his injury. The Bucs are the Bucs. They have the AFCN, and the NFCW. Not an easy schedule.

I seriously doubt the football watching world particularly cares about Mayfield or hates the Browns. The latter just kept sledgehammering their own knees which isnt particularly must-watch TV.

Albany,n.y. Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 All Carolina needs to do is sign Josh Rosen & they can corner the market on top 10 QB disappointments of the 2018 NFL draft. If they then cut Rosen, he can say "Two mistakes were made on the QB depth chart ahead of me, and I will make sure over the next decade or so that they will know that they made a mistake." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Quote The Panthers will pay $4.85 million of Mayfield's salary while the Browns will pay $10.5 million, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Mayfield agreed to convert the remainder of his $18.8 million salary into incentives to facilitate the deal, which is pending a physical.

Big Blitz Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Well played by Carolina. I assume they showed no urgency and Baker had to have told whoever was trading for him he's going to go where he wants the best situation the best chance to start and the best place to start his career again. He had to have some possibly a lot of leverage. I thought Seattle was going to get him. I guess he didn't want to go there?

If they had a quarterback, they might actually be a good team. Mayfield is leaps and bounds better than what they have. If they go into the season with Drew Lock or Geno Smith as their starter, what hope do they have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) Mark me down as a believer that Mayfield will do well in Carolina and the Panthers will be in playoff contention. Mind you, I don’t think Baker will ever be a league MVP candidate or anything. I DO think he’s NFL starting caliber. A top 20 option, let’s say. Support him with a quality defense and running game and he’ll make the playoffs more years than not. Mayfield’s gonna be playing with a massive chip on his shoulder. I truly believe he’ll have a good season. Edited July 6, 2022 by Logic 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
