If Mayfield returns to Cleveland, it will be in a visiting team's uniform.  Could be Carolina, Detroit, or somebody whose starter goes down before or early in the season.

To recap, the Browns are out a first round pick for three years, a couple of assorted other picks, and burned the bridge with their starting QB (whether you like him or not), in exchange for the possibility that Watson someday may play for them.....maybe......assuming there are not even more allegations.  And the list stops there assuming they can/would void his contract and save themselves most of the cash.

To think we had people calling anybody who didn't want the Panthers all in on this fiasco idiots.

Better them than us. If people think they can't handle the Tepper critics now imagine what this place would look like if we were in that position. Tepper should send them a nice gift for saving him from himself.

I suspect there are a couple of Browns forums that sound eerily similar to that right now.

But yeah, this place would make a shark feeding frenzy look like a bunch of goldfish.

Has a starting caliber QB ever come back after 2 years of not playing a snap to perform at a high level?

I don't think there are many examples, if any, where a starting QB took two years off. Would be an extremely small sample size. But you would have to expect there to be a major adjustment to get your conditioning back up, especially since he hasn't done a 17 game season as well.

So let’s see; Watson will for sure be suspended week one and Baker more than likely won’t play another snap for them…

Betting we will still be underdogs 

Of course we will still be underdogs.

Sam will be the QB after all.   meh.

      Some Thoughts on Legette based upon an ex-scout's ranking him WR1 in the draft

      By strato · Posted

      Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.

      Front office/scouting staff changes

      For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.

      Every Xavier Legette target 2023

      I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
