Playing for Pickett

If we're doing anything we're trading for a proven commodity
An out of trouble Deshaun Watson should be the Browns first choice

I don't see a realistic scenario of an upgrade available.
I agree that there isn't many blue chip locks in the QB class this upcoming year as there has been in years past, but I still think would could find value in the 2nd or 3rd rounds this year that could work out after a year of practicing studying on the bench.

THIS scenario wouldn't shock me, I could see this happening.
What I meant was I don't see Mayfield replaced this offseason with someone who is the 2022 starter. The Browns drafting Baker's possible replacement down the road in the 2nd or 3rd round? I could see this.

A legal Deshaun Watson is 10 times better then Baker Mayfield. It isn’t even close
Watson is younger, already has a contract, and is a PRO BOWL QB. He has Baker beat on EVERY FRONT

That’s not how you win in the 2022 season
People keep saying, we need to win now, the window is open NOW
A drafted QB sitting behind Baker sure as heck isn’t going to do ANYTHING
And watching Baker muddle along through another season while we waste this “so called window”, will be just like this year
9-8 or 8-9 or maybe if we catch a break 11-6
If Deshaun Watson is available, GET IT DONE!!!!!!

no freaking way. I'd rather the Browns trade up and draft Pickett. The cost would be less, even just considering draft picks.
Dumping on Baker does not fix the wr problem.

Ya except for the fact that he's been accused AND admitted too 20 different sexual misconduct acts with 20 different women...
You dumping 3 first rounders and a few starters for that guy? That's playing with fire. I doubt Berry takes the risk.

I'm just being realistic.
Your scenario is what YOU want the Browns to do.
My scenario is what I think the Browns will do.
I don't see Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson coming to Cleveland, and I don't see the Browns giving up the world (possibly) for a PR nightmare like Watson.
I can see, though, the scenario presented by jbluhm where - on Baker's 5th year contract - the Browns draft a younger guy to groom to replace him with. I can see the Browns coaching staff and front office thinking "We believe in this offensive system. You don't need a superstar to run it. You don't need a guy you have to pay $30-40 mill a year. Find us a guy in the draft who is smart and can go through progressions better than Baker."

I don't want to give up on Baker, and he will be here next season.
That said, I also wouldn't be against drafting a QB in say round 2 as a back-up plan for the following year in the event the team camp and the baker camp have differing views of his worth.
People keep saying we are built to win now. maybe so, but with all the 1 year deals on the books, as of this time we aren't built to do that next year.

Our core is Garrett, Chubb, Ward, Bitonio, Teller.
Age and contract status of the group suggest drafting a developmental type in Day 2 or 3 and hanging onto that guy hoping the developmental QB is competent in two years and good in three. It would be time to hit the reset button with the other pieces.
So next year it is one read Baker
Year 2 is new guy
Year 3 we are hopefully rolling along.
What’s the other plan?
-
Anybody can get lucky, but drafting a day 3 QB to develop isn't something I would bank on.
Let's be real here....day 1 QB's have a high failure rate. Ours was the #1 overall pick and while no where near a bust, at least 2 of the QBs taken after him are easily better QB's, this point and most probably moving forward.
I think the 2023 draft class is where you want to find a QB...i see us trading down several times to add picks for the 2023 draft.

Baker talks the talk, but can’t walk the walk.
translation - he just can’t get it done, especially in the 4th quarter with the game on the line. -

Baker Mayfield thrived late in games in 2020, but it’s been a struggle this season

BTW, go back and look at the Browns vs Cincy this year. 41-6 sound familiar?
Baker qb rating: 132
Burrow qb rating: 69
