Albert Breer: Baker Mayfield would be redundant to Sam Darnold and the Browns are pushing more for a trade than the Panthers are

What's the end goal with getting Baker or Jimmy G? They are not going to get us where we ultimately want to go, and he would keep us out of contention for Stroud/Young. At least with Darnold you are more likely to tank (and you could argue he has more upside than Baker/Jimmy - even though we are very likely beyond repair).

Baker has also had like 4 different OC's. Do we just ignore that? That can hinder a QB in a heartbeat. 

On a team with 5 pro-bowlers including Nick Chubb and 2, that is TWO, OL.  Not to mention Odell Beckham until mid November.  What the Browns finally figured out was that it wasn't the OC's, it was Baker.

Baker   >   Sam

Sounds like the Adam Gase thing with Darnold. Everyone else was to blame. Not the right fit not the right coach not the right surroundings. I can't believe some of you guys don't see the same story unfolding.

Sam sucks.  We need to move on.

That said, Sam didn't have 2 probowl offensive linemen, probowl RB Nick Chubb and Odell Beckham with the jets or us.

Two totally different situations.

Baker may be better than Sam, but not by much.  They are the same tier QB.  Baker is just the whiny bitch version of Sam.

Can't disagree with any of this. But the biggest question for Baker isn't how much better he is than Darnold. It's the matter of is he a bad teammate and a bad leader of men. So far we have our answer and that means we should not give up anything of value for him.

It's been stable for the past two seasons under Stefanski and Alex Van Pelt, yet Mayfield still went off the rails.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
