We already have plenty of Not Good Enough QBs on the roster. There is no reason whatsoever to add another one.

FIFY.

At least Corral hasn't proved it in the NFL yet. If Baker was good enough the Browns wouldn't have spent their future in picks and cap on a serial sexual predator.

Baker had one of the best lines in football, an awesome run game, and a bunch of weapons and his QBR was 35.1 last year compared to Darnold's 33.2 with one of the worst lines in football. 

If you think Baker will improve with our new line (which PFF now ranks 24th), you're in for an unpleasant surprise.

Baker is another mistake, just like Sam was.

I’m no baker fan but let’s not forget that even tho he had one of the best run games in the league and the coaching staff flat out said his injury was affecting him throwing the ball. They promptly came out the next week and threw it 50 times. They’re still the browns

Yes last year Baker played with one bad shoulder and produced his worst ratings of his career and STILL beat out Sam.  Now do any other year comparing the two QBs.  Baker is far from elite, but he is way better than Sam who actually plays worse when he has time.

Oh, your QB is injured? Time to really lean on him now!

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
