Mark mr 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.

Pretty shrewd move by Baker. In 2 years or less Brady will be gone.  Baker will be the best qb left in that division.

Remember also he claims that he was supporting his (he was with him for 2 on JEST team as well).

A reporter got the quick sound bite he wanted and did not investigate further.

 

What is more important quick or complete?  

I am sure a Ian Rapport's (in)significant would prefer complete rather 1 minute and done.

Next 5 years who would you rather have at QB:

 

Kyler

Mayfield 

Dak

Stafford 

Fields

Hurts 

Lance 

Cousins 

Goff 

Winston 

Wentz

Darnold

Daniel Jones

Lock

 

 

I want to leave Kyler off the list.  I'm not sure he's a QB yet and I know he'll be the safe pick.  

 

The state of NFC QBs.

I was high on Fields coming out of Ohio State. Still think he can be better than Lawrence, but much too soon to know. 

Dak and Stafford appear to be the best of the bunch now. Will be interesting to see what Lance does this year. 

You left off Jimmy G. Wonder where he ends up.

Yea....and Brady and Rodgers because of age - just feels like Jimmy Gs days as a starter are over barring injuries.  And maybe a high end back up is always what he's been.  At best.

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. Plus, the Browns scumbag QB might not even play this year. Mark Jimmy Haslam as the dumbest owner in the NFL and Dan Synder as the worst.

A number 1 that got them to the playoffs and played hurt for you last year. Even if Watson plays is he that much better than a healthy Baker?? 

Haslam is a moron for that deal he made for Watson 

 

Schefter has a Bills helmet on a shelf behind him.

 

But I read on here the media hates Buffalo???

lol Mitch was "gold"?

Ok, I just heard Baker has an opportunity to go from $15.5 mil. To $18.3 mil. With incentives.  The MTC guys looked at the preliminary and stated the incentives looked achievable so maybe Mayfield won’t lose that much I he performs.  
 

Carolina at worst gets a rental for possibly for $8.3 mil.  That’s a steal for a starter and now maybe they can find trade another team for some back up pay.  They probably won’t get much, but Darnold is a solid backup.

How is this still a topic at the top of the board!?!?

Oh right, off season...

Can't wait till everyone agrees that this isn't about the Bills and who gives a damn.


What else is there?  Oh I know!  I will start another Tremaine Edmunds thread.

Imagine if someone told you in 2018 that 4 years later Darnold and Mayfield would both be on the same team, competing for the starting role. 

 

The night of the 2018 draft that might have struck most fans as that GM being some sort of genius, to land BOTH these guys and let them battle it out...

Now that he's a Panther, he is only one step away from being a Bill. So we should keep this going to track his progress.

 

One more thing, you're welcome.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
