FilthyBeast Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Sure he's not a rapist like the guy the Browns replaced him with, but this latest separation proves that Mayfield has serious issues and why his career in this league is going to very short lived, even more so than expected.

Lane Meyer K12 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 There were red flags with this guy, big ego usually does not translate well for athletes. It is quite amazing that out of the 5 quarterbacks' taken in the first round, Allen, who I did not want at the time, turned out to be the winning lottery ticket. It did not take long to be on board with Allen, his attitude and work ethnic resonated with me personally. Looking at this makes one feel exceptionally lucky and grateful for the intuition of the Bills front office and coaching staff. We were waaaay overdue to get one right! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 2 hours ago, eball said: You can't. Even though he has flamed out you've got to kick the tires on Mayfield. You need a guy who has played in big games, even if it's just to manage the game behind that defense. Mayfield is not a game manager. He needed to be stripped down and rebuilt by Alex Van Pelt but he kept reverting to previous form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I kinda hated Baker in college and thought he got overdrafted. But he had some good moments for Cleveland. His fall is wild. Who has done more commercials with less of a career? he could have a long career as a backup if he learns to stay quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s more that he just isn’t that good. Even if he is annoying in the lockerroom, that stuff gets overlooked if you can play.

Rochesterfan Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 1 hour ago, TheFunPolice said: Just to let Ryan go, out of respect for him and knowing nobody else is going to claim him and he's gone in 5 games anyway. the idea would be to get Ryan to SF It is an interesting thought. The question is is guaranteed money for next year. I believe the Colts guaranteed 10-12 million of his 2023 Salary upon acquiring him - so I can see getting rid of Ryan, but it is not cheap and he is under a huge contract number for next year that I am not sure a team like the 49ers want. Therefore he would have to pass through waivers and then the Colts are forced to payout the contract. Plus Mayfield is not under contract for next year - so you are cutting and paying one guy to pick up a 5 game QB that will not be back? Seems to risky - keep Ryan and try to trade him in the off season to get rid of the salary. Sign Mayfield if they want - just to get him in the building.

But man you were right on him Yes! Some guys just need time to develop. Some guys that's a full decade. 🤣 Maybe a team who needs a vet QB, like the Jets, can get on the phone and trade a couple of 1sts for him! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered if Allen had been selected already, who would the Bills have taken instead? Likely either Mayfield or Darnold would have still been available at #7 then.

Coincidence that it's only coming out now that they're losing? I think not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
