Sam Darnold vs Baker Mayfield training camp

If we somehow offload Sam and get Baker that is best case almost in my book. Grab LT at 6 and we’re a fringe playoff team. I really don’t get the Baker hate, people forget how horrendous the browns were when he came in. Dude set rookie TD records then led them to their first playoff win in decades. Tore his shoulder this year and tried playing through it. It happens.. if he’s healthy now and we can get him while offloading Sam that’s a huge win

Honestly I don't either. He made huge strides in '20 and was saddled with limiting injuries last year.

His stats for the 11-5 2020 Browns aren't that far off from Watson's stats when the Texans were competitive.

Mayfield:

305/486 (63%) for 3562 yards (7.3 y/a) and 26 TDs vs. 8 INTs

Watson:

345/505 (68%) for 4165 yards (8.2 y/a) and 26 TDs vs. 9 INTs

333/495 (67%) for 3852 yards (7.8 y/a) and 26 TDs vs. 12 INTs

Honestly, if Mayfield bounces back the Browns are going to really regret this flirtation with Watson that looks to have Mayfield filing for divorce.

We will have all the INTs but at least more production with Mayfield. You could probably win with an elite team around Baker…but even that won’t save you from Darnold.

I say f all that and draft a rookie, if he fails it won’t be that big of a deal. Hell you might even get the first pick like the Jags and can take a legit qb next draft.

If only we’d be smart draft olineman + supporting case and start PJ giving us the first pick next year.

My patience for new accounts that are just trolling and looking to pick fights is zero right now. Just FYI. Enjoy the rest of the day off.

Is it hard to moderate with a Tarheel blue dick in your mouth?

    • I've been screaming for DE for months. Forbidden topic indeed. 
    • Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ? 
    • Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
