DapperCam Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I think he’ll get 2 years $60-70m somewhere. He’s carved out a niche as an ideal bridge QB for a team that is looking to draft a rookie this year or next year and let them sit. Pats would be a good fit. Commanders maybe if they aren’t sold on Howell. Raiders possibly as well. He can get you to the playoffs, and even elevate his play when the game is on the line and you need to push the ball down the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met some Tampa fans during my travels last winter and they were very happy with the Baker. I feel that the Bucs will keep him in the 30 to 40 range with incentives. They made the playoffs, didn't they? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Baker very nearly led the Bucs to the NFC Title Game. That's crazy. They'll re-sign him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 2 hours ago, DCOrange said: I wouldn't be surprised if Vegas trades up. I definitely think they'll gauge Washington and New England's interest in moving down. Antonio Pierce is the guy that brought Jayden Daniels to Arizona State. But even if that doesn't work out, I could see them moving up for JJ McCarthy. Any team dumb enough to trade up for McCarthy deserves the misery soon to follow. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Mayfield is certainly going to get a bag from someone this offseason, whether it's the Bucs or someone else. Still a lot of QB needy teams out there and at worse he's shown he can be an average NFL starter in this league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 4 hours ago, BBFL said: If the Pats and Jets beat us with rough QB play I’d rather he stays out of the division. Guy looked pretty competent and played very well last season. That could be a flash in the pan year but he’s certainly shown the substance to be a starter in this league. A competent one who can win games at that. Feel there will be several teams reaching out to his agent for his services, those two you mentioned would have to be included. It’s worse than that if Baker goes to an AFCE team. He’s streaky. If he’s on, it can be a problem. Odds are he would be “on” in one of the two games we’d play him every year. I wonder if he’d go to the Steelers? The AFCN would be even more stacked. 56 minutes ago, John from Riverside said: The bucks aren’t going to let him get away I think this is likely - and I would prefer it this way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 This leak could be from the Bucs and aimed at getting Winfield Jr signed to an extension due to the threat of the tag. Once he signs they can tag Baker if needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCofNC Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 3 hours ago, cle23 said: The lengths people will go to discredit Purdy are outright insane. Whichever talking head said “Purdy could walk on water and you all would say “it’s because he doesn’t know how to swim”” had it right. The kid had an MVP season and everyone goes out of their way to find fault. If he had just been a higher draft pick, none of this non-sense would be out there. He played a really good game in the SB, lead a late game go ahead drive and scored in OT, but it was all his fault. Nonsense. He didn’t collapse, his OL sure did, but he played good enough to win. He outplayed our own JA in the playoffs, oddly enough, it was Chris Jones who wrecked both clear TD passes for the Bills and the 9ers by being on the QB before they could throw. Allen had a little time before it happened, Purdy had nothing. Credit the team around him all you want, that’s a weak ass excuse. He was making his money with the 3rd WR. So say what you want, I’m not buying. 5 minutes ago, BarleyNY said: This leak could be from the Bucs and aimed at getting Winfield Jr signed to an extension due to the threat of the tag.

He’s good, not elite, should be able to get him back at ~30M, no need to go insane. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 6 hours ago, Gregg said: Figured the Bucs would sign him after the season he had. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/buccaneers-allow-baker-mayfield-to-become-free-agent/ar-BB1izJhL?ocid=entnewsntp&pc=DCTS&cvid=970c0c618f984f76b838bb46b4c63b89&ei=12 According to the convo Mayfield had with ?Steve Young? Off set, Mayfield expected to be signed. So it may be the Bucs low-balled him (according to Mayfield’s price point) or, Mayfield wanted a vet starter contract and the Bucs said “OK, go out and see what you can get”. 5 hours ago, colin said: i don't know what should work out price wise, but if he was the qb for sf, they beat kc in the bowl.

Warriorspikes51 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 at least call Mike Evans agent to see if he would have interest in coming here. We could create the cap room for him if we actually wanted him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is likely - and I would prefer it this way. Steelers are a good shout. Think he would do well there being in a situation where they are a run first team. Could actually be a killer scenario for him where he gets to take revenge on the Browns twice a year… Could be a sticking point for him to sign. Don’t think that supersedes the financial side of things though. Highest bidder wins IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insanity. I don't believe it. He never once carried that team. Harbaugh's scheme actually hid him quite well. He averaged a whopping 199 yds per contest. Does that scream top 5 pick to you? Does that even scream 1st Round pick to you? Any of this chatter is probably being put out there by his agent imo. Like I said before, any team dumb enough to trade up for him deserves the misery that will follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 5 hours ago, Ridgewaycynic2013 said: Just sell Woody on the prospect of having every QB drafted in 2018 eventually wearing the Jets uniform. He'll lap that up. 😁 He got Favre at age 39. I may be ok with him taking Josh in 2035. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Boo Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 If they're able to retain Mike Evans, the Bucs could get the same production with Andy Dalton. No. I'm not kidding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
