Baker Mayfield watch

Josina out here stirring up some rumors on her IG page

josinaanderson 1–on-1 with #Browns WR Amari Cooper just after he came off the field from the first day of mandatory camp today. Cooper has the challenge of adapting to Deshaun Watson and Jacoby Brissett at the same time and being ready for whatever this season brings. The 4x Pro-Bowler is also embracing his statesman role among the younger receivers here. Interesting to see if Cleveland adds another WR to the group—say like Robbie Anderson in a potential trade. Just a thought. Not a report.

I don't want Mayfield, but that is because I don't think he is the answer to anything other than getting to mediocrity. The possible exception is if they believe Corral will not be ready this season, but is "the guy."  It is kinda tough to conclude both of those conditions at the same time, especially in the next couple of weeks.  Even if it is true, the best option may still be to let Sam stink up the joint, pick up a first-round QB in 2023 and then sign a vet to round out the QB room.

That said, if they want to take the Sam mistake off our hands in exchange for us sweeping up the ashes they created with Mayfield, I'd be okay provided any additional compensation is about round 5.  Much more than that we are basically just rinsing and repeat the same desperation that got us Sam.

The Browns screwed themselves with Mayfield.  They created a situation that ensured he was not going to play there again and did so for a guy who may not play there at all even though they traded away a ton of draft picks to make the deal.  I would not be inclined to throw them a life preserver. 

I'm sure they are sitting in Cleveland thinking "these are the same morons that traded a ton for Darnold and then backed the Brinks truck up to his door."

So Baker for Robbie, straight up?  Which includes them eating most of Bakers salary?  That still leaves us with our little Sam problem....however with the savings for trading Anderson we could probably just say fug It and outright cut Sam.

We already have plenty of mediocre QBs on the roster. There is no reason whatsoever to add another one.

We don't have any mediocre QBs currently.  Mediocre would be a massive upgrade to what we currently have.

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
