  • Getting anything for Baker would be a bonus. Just hope we minimize the amount of salary we keep on our books. Could use cap space to add FAs later in the season for a SB run.

    Unfortunately somewhat true.  The great  trade deals might be off the table now it's just like that when the other guys know your hand.  Just the way it is in poker or professional football,  oh well......

  • Baker Mayfield is one of the Top 7 best young QB's in the league... and he will be for years to come. We're getting shafted with the sideshow freak DateShawn Watson... a one trick pony. 

  • Wow... this is sickening...

    Pog dude... At some point ya just gotta let it go... This is the shit storm they embraced.. Let them wallow in it now... Baker will make out wherever he winds up... I'm all for 2nd chances but Jesus.. At some point ya gotta act responsible and all of that. But dwelling on Mayfield isnt gonna help this team... Just let them implode... At this point ... The way we make wholesale changes is hilarious... Bring on da Briskets and DeSnausages!

  • Well PoG is involved in this now.

    Get the popcorn out, fellas. He's about to go all Saquon Barkley on this. ?

  • Baker Mayfield a good but just how great let's see what the numbers say.  He has 3,000+ yards passing in every season he's played no 4,000+ seasons.   The important W/L 29-30 on a better than average team.   Basically he's good not great or exceptional.   Not a prototypical franchise quarterback. 

    And 2018 was his high water season in game winning drives, note 2021 zero g/w drives.    He may not ever do better, injuries aside.  In 2020 his best finish but no 2021 follow up yes he was injured. 

     Just the numbers.

    A new QB in Carolina: The #Panthers are acquiring former No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield from the #Browns for a 2024 conditional 5th-round draft pick, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. Deal is pending a physical. All parties split the financials to make it happen.

  • Not sure why it doesn't embed...

    For a conditional 5th rounder. Split salary basically.

    Jacoby era here we come!

  • Mike Garafolo@MikeGarafolo
    More: The #Browns will pay Baker Mayfield $10.5 million this season, which means they trimmed over $8 million in cash and salary-cap space. The #Panthers will pay Mayfield ~$5 million. Mayfield agreed to trim ~$3.5 million off his base salary.

    5th rounder? Holy crap, that sucks.

    Jacoby?  We got a guy named DeShaun if he’s not suspended for two years like some of you suggest.

    We traded Baker for a 2024 pick that will probably be our next long snapper.  Let that sink in.

    There is no doubt in mind that Baker is better than Lock and Smith so all this tells me that the Hawks are in full out tank mode ready for CJ Stroud and company. 

    Let me brace the forum for a meltdown when Carolina pulls out a win with Baker and we are paying Baker’s salary because we stink in Week 1….please hang on…please….better days will be coming 

  • The Browns have to be run by the dumbest owner ever. Please go away Jimmy and Dee and please keep any offspring you have far away as well. Piece of Shit Steelers fag.

    He learned nothing when in Pittsburgh obviously. Maybe they shut the door on him or something in the shareholder meetings.

    5th rounder. I still can't believe it, just plain dumb. My hunch is the Browns are blackballed for that stupid DW contract.

  • Best of luck and well wishes.  I appreciate Bakers contributions in helping this team start to show a turnaround. 

    Worth pointing out, this is likely the best deal the Browns were offered.  Which includes reports of Detriot and the man who drafted Baker, getting in at the 11th hour.  If that influence couldn't net a better return, then it should be quite telling to all what the NFL thought of Mayfield.

    Also leads me to believe the Browns have been informed of Deshauns suspension and it will be survivable by riding it out with Jacoby. 

    Some good memories made.  Hoping the next ones will be even better. 

  • Baker agreed to $5 mill less, everyone took a bite. 

  • My son just told me Baker just got traded to Carolina. Is this true?

  • Good trade.  A conditional 5th rounder that will probably turn in to a 4th.

  • When he beats the Browns on opening day, think he'll plant the Carolina flag on the fifty yard line?

    I hope so .
