If one didn't know better they might get the impression that they are trying to work out a long term deal for Baker with the background check they are doing on him. One would think they were going to give up a couple of 1st round picks or something doing all this do diligence on him.

As shitty as it sounds I think Carolina is concerned about Baker’s personality clashing in the locker room more than any off the field issues. Watson (appears to be a terrible person) never had any locker room issues that I’m aware of. His teammates typically spoke highly of him. 

The NFL has basically came out and established their rules:

1. Don’t be a white man and make offensive comments.

2. Don’t mess with their money.

3. Whatever a certain group of people are mad about that particular week on the news, don’t be a part of. (expires in 3 months)

Everything else under the sun is 100% fair game.

Why are some of you guys acting like the Panthers are the only team that has ever overlooked off-the-field issues for a superbly talented player? 

Yeah, no crap the Panthers were likely more willing to overlook any issues Watson would bring vs issues Mayfield could bring, given Watson is a much better QB.  And who says the Panthers didn't do their due diligence on Watson, given they weren't willing to fully guarantee the contract?  Clearly they had their own reservations, however far they went.  It isn't like Tepper couldn't afford to guarantee the contract. But sure, yeah, let's push the narrative.

And this is not me defending anything Watson has done. Obviously it was terrible and he deserves a full-year suspension. But stop acting like the Panthers stance is unique.  The fact of the matter is, in all sports, the athletes at the top will be shown more leniency vs the athletes at the bottom.  I don't find it surprising at all they wouldn't want to bring Mayfield in if he's going to bring a lot of baggage, because guess what?  He's not as good as Watson and likely never will be.  And if you have a problem with that, then I don't know what to tell you.  Sports have always been like that and they always will be.  The better you are, the more franchises will let you get away with.

Please keep your politics out of my football.

But the nfl is politics, you either ignore it or are too stupid to realize it

the point wasn’t that either

the point was how comical and backwards poo is when Watson is considered winning the lotto while suspension is being reviewed and meanwhile Ridley is suspended for a year. that’s all. get it snowflakes? 
 

everything is not butthurt offensive, chill

I really don't understand what the Browns think they have. They told Mayfeild he was expendable. He won't play for them. Rather than eat half his salary and get nothing in return, why not trade Baker for Sam straight up. Deal with your respective headache for a year and be done with it.

It’s pretty much all about money. If a player makes a racist comment it’s not only incredibly ignorant, but will destroy any trust/respect in the locker room. A general rule for any business/society is to not make racist comments and better yet not be racist. Unfortunately a large number of us fans and players will look the other way on sexual assault/domestic abuse if the player produces on the field. Shame on us for looking the other way (the ones that do) and shame on the NFL for not cracking down on it enough. All they care about is their bottom line like most businesses.

    • You should because before the preseason fiasco and the start of the season fiasco, all the reports, including Frank’s responses, were that Fitterer and Reich were in lock step. Remember the press conference where Fitterer talked about both he and Frank saying who they wanted before and after the draft process and that they both picked Young and it was glorious? People got hung up on Tepper saying the point guard analogy in April when Brown was interviewed by a Panthers reporter describing how a QB needs to be a point guard in huge detail. That was in February. I think Tepper was just parroting Brown to make himself look like he knew what he was doing. Mrs. Tepper hugging Bryce always overshadowed CJ saying how he called her Mama Tepp. We fuged up as a team, probably more so because Fitterer always said he had Young as his #1 the year before, probably because we looked at all the QBs that year as well. Reich’s love for CJ started when he got on the hot seats for frankly doing a horrific job. He's been in the league a long time and has a lot of media friends and that was a face saving CYA which we know well with many years of Hurney. Still amazing to think how much better the team was under Rhule/Hurney before Fitterer got any control when Rhule was on the hot seat.
