Goddamn. I laughed pretty hard at that.

Well now there's this...

Plans can change of course (and very well might after the first time they see the guys they have take the field) but if they stick to this, Mayfield is pretty much out of starting options.

Oh okay well they should keep him and just eat all that money then. He wasn't the long-term answer anyhow. Better than Sam? Of course so buy not worth taking on his big ass salary also and give up some sort of high draft pick. Browns probably just screed themselves by being so hard headed

The Seahawks faith in Drew Lock is one of the most wildly insane thingsI have seen in the NFL.

I love Pete Carroll but he is pure mush on this take.

Last weekend, the Panthers and Browns seemed to be trending toward a Mayfield trade. However, ESPN’s Jake Trotter reports that the two sides were never close to completing the deal. According to Trotter, neither side wanted to pay the majority of Mayfield’s nearly $19 million salary he is set to make in 2022.

By not finding a middle ground to pay the money, Carolina decided to trade up and select Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral in the third round instead.

We're in the exact same spot with Sam.  Nobody is going to want him and pay him 19 million dollars this year, so we're apparently stuck with him as starter until Matt beats him out.

I just have a massive feeling that the Browns will regret this entire undertaking before the end of the season. Watson is a landmine waiting to explode, they just pissed off a serviceable QB who can compete in their division AND gave up a ton of draft and cap capital to get where they are.

In a world of competitive sports, the Panthers were so lucky to be left on the outside of this looking in. Those poor Browns fans deserve better than this will probably turn out.

    • No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.
    • you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis
    • well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying
