    I hope you Baker Backers are right, I really do. When we drafted him I had the same sick feeling in my stomach when we drafted Weeden

    Baker isn't Weeden. Brandon only tried football when he knew he couldn't cut it in baseball.

    Not sure if the same graphic will pop up as it was on my Google feed but that particular photo showed a smiling Bill Belichick...

    Conspiracy? I report, you decide.

    Currently drafted players have little or no leverage on their rookie contracts... I seriously doubt Mayfield would pull a Joey Bosa scenario haggling about off set language....

    * Currently drafted players have little or no leverage on their rookie contracts... I seriously doubt Mayfield would pull a Joey Bosa scenario haggling about off set language.... 

    * One of the results and lessons learned from Ryan Leaf and others. Big rookie signing bonuses and ask veteran linemen to take freezes or cuts.

    Is it just me or is there still a fair amount of quarterback uncertainty in the NFL and maybe more to come in upcoming years? 

  • 2018 NFL Draft First-Round Rookie Salary Projections: What Mayfield, Barkley And Darnold Will Make

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbelzer/2018/04/27/2018-nfl-draft-1st-round-rookie-salary-projections-what-mayfield-barkley-and-darnold-will-make/#2d70d6d34581

    The first round of the 2018 NFL draft has come to a conclusion, and we can now begin to project the salaries for this year's crop of rookies. In a night with few surprises, the biggest winner was without question Oklahoma Sooners quarterback Baker Mayfield, the No. 1 overall pick, who will earn approximately $32,993,327 over his rookie contract with the Cleveland Browns, including a $22,185,523 signing bonus.

    Running back Saquon Barkley of Penn State, who was drafted second, by the New York Giants, will make similar money: a projected $31,647,174 overall, including a $21,086,526signing bonus. Quarterback Sam Darnold, the former Southern California standout, will make approximately $30,685,571 on his rookie deal with the New York Jets after being chosen third. Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen went seventh to the Bills and stands to make $21,481,462 on his rookie deal in Buffalo. 

    Compensation for 2018 NFL rookies is based on two factors: the league's salary sap and its rookie compensation pool. The NFL's salary cap (based on the terms negotiated in the 2011 collective bargaining agreement) is expected to be approximately $177.2 million per team in 2018 (an increase of 6% over 2017) for a league-wide salary distribution of approximately $5.7 billion. The second, more significant factor, is the rookie compensation pool, which puts limitations on the total amount teams can spend on a rookie's first-year salary and the total four-year contract........CONTINUED IN LINK.......

  • There are 7 games at the start of the season that could build some winning momentum. The first 2 being the toughest Pitt. & at Nawlins..than Jets,at Oak.,Ratbirds,LAC,at TB. Win-able gets tough 3 weeks before the Bye.At Pitts.KC,ATL..After Bye week we have only 2 Home games..tough road ahead.At Cinn.,At Houston,Car.At Denver,Cinn.,At Ravens..Tyrod usually plays up to his best against the Jets..If the staff thinks Baker is ready? Oakland's Black Hole, sounds like a Baker Mayfield 2nd half comeback winning spot..  Gumnac

    Little premature making that conclusion syd.  🙂 

    Mayfield, who proclaimed at the NFL combine that if anyone could turn the Browns around he could, was aware that some fans were distraught when they passed on Sam Darnold in favor of him at No. 1.  

    "Winning the game will take care of winning them over,'' he said. "I did genuinely want to come here.  You want to be the guy to lead that. You want to be that person. For me being as competitive as I am, the bigger the challenge for me, the better for me."

    "It's been so far so good, so I've definitely enjoyed it, felt welcomed and this feels like home already,'' he said. He's determined to help bring the joy back to Brownstown.
