1000% He is no better than Darnold and I don't know why people think he is. Look at the EXTREME difference in talent Baker has played with compared to Darnold and the results are the same....Maybe Mayfield has a tiny bit better stats because he throws a screen to Chubb with his elite OLINE and Chubb does the work to take it to the house. Not to mention how bad Baker is for a locker room. Imagine him Corrall, Darnold, Robby, Rhule and McAdoodoo on the same team....oh my

110%

Not enough

No, I agree with you guys. I would start Corral, but this is the reason Rhule is freaking out begging Tepper and Fitterer for Baker.

Just an FYI Corral is really struggling learning McAdoo's playbook and checks.... if he can pick it up he's got a chance.

Thats not how the NFL and agents work....

So you down to release Sams guaranteed contract? Basically means you are trading a draft pick to pay Mayfield 36 million. What a genius Rhule is. But he doesn't care about the future of the franchise he cares about his job for one year. Like I have always said. He is a used car salesman and is trying to sell the FO on his 5th QB that sucks.

We are just flat out embarrassing at this point... Why not just wait until he is cut? Why is no other team in the NFL interested? Seattle doesn't have a QB and said hell no..... And notice its all Rhule, I at least know that Dan Morgan is not down w this...And Tepper doesn't mind b/c it'll sell some seats and he is a very cheap Billionaire.

We are really going to let Rhule (who has begged) to trade for Mayfield so we can get 7 wins instead of 6, still not make the playoffs, not be able to have a top 10 pick to take a QB and have Rhule stick around? And some people on here are hype. If this trade is anything except a straight up Darnold for Mayfield trade we are idiots. Cleveland has no leverage and we will probably still get out-negotiated. If I was that bad at negotiating at my job Id be fired.

It is 100% Matt Rhule pushing for Mayfield. The people that want Mayfield must want Rhule to have full say on the roster and keep up the process of his 4th crappy QB rotation crap he's doing.... A broken Cam, Teddy, Darnold, Mayfield. Whats next Daniel Jones? LOL just stop with this crap. The only reason Rhule hasn't traded our future 1 is because Tepper and Fitt won't let him and that is the only reason. I have heard he is pushing hard.

Right. Non throwing shoulder and something plenty of players have played through on their throwing shoulder. Shoot, my good friend in high school tore his rotator cuff and played through it easily and had surgery after the season. Its an excuse. Imagine Robby and Baker in the locker room. What a disaster that would be...

I still personally don't know how Mayfield is better than Darnold. To me he is worse. Terrible attitude. 2 feet tall, cant run, was on a super bowl level roster and cant make the playoffs. Darnold sucks, but he has never had anything near what Baker has had and looked about the same..... I think the locker room would be a disaster with Mayfield. Imagine him and Robby smh

Yep. Just like the Hornets. Not good enough to make/win in the playoffs, but not bad enough for a top 3 pick. Two poorly run organizations at the moment. #Purgatory

I absolutely hate our local media. It's like they are pushing for this. Oh wait it'll make there jobs 10xs more exciting watching these two immature goofballs Mayfield and Darnold battle it out for QB and spending almost 40 million between them. What a clown show that would be....

Good. The only person pushing for this is Rhule BTW. (So he can have another excuse, waste our cap and get another absolutely crap QB.) Corrall>Darnod>Mayfield

Exactly. I am fine with tanking honestly. This roster is no where near ready to compete at a high level. Maybe 6 wins max. Save the cap. Don't waste it on this QB and coaching regime. Its not that hard and the reason Scott won't make any moves. He has somewhat of a brain. Now if Dunlap is super, super cheap who cares, but save as much as possible and spend like crazy next year with a first round QB and Corral as your future.

You would probably trade your 1 for Baker who imo is not as good as Darnold. Man had the best oline and rb core in the league and receivers such as Odell, Jarvis, etc. What did Darnold have? How is Baker better? Stats? Sure he's on a 10xs better team. Any decent QB takes that team to the Super Bowl with that roster last year, yet Burrow beat his ass w nothing. You sir are ignorant.

We don't have Joe Burrow buddy. LOL you are very ignorant. Mayfield, a broken shoulder Jimmy G is terrible. Jimmy G will never be the same his shoulder is more shot than Cams now. LOL

Literally what's the point to sign anyone at this point? No one is going to push any kind of needle and we are in the negatives for cap space next year w/o even having a QB. Save the money and try to trade Robby, but Rhule is fighting for his job, so we won't be smart. Let the young guys play.

Save the cap. They will likely scoop him and waste more of our future money for no reason. He is beyond done.

McCall, Roy and Hoskins are not NFL quality players that should get any sort of playing time. LOL/Geez for even bringing them up....

If Haynes, Ioannidis and Burns are in the game. I could create a running hole blocking. Ioannidis and Haynes are extremely weak against the run. The holes at practice w/o pads were massive. I know that's w/o pads, but the gap discipline was pathetic. The line coach was def getting on them.

We are going to struggle badly with run defense this year. Haynes is a terrible run defender.

Just letting y'all know I work directly across the street from the stadium and I was able to watch a practice on the outdoor field and even though they aren't even in pads that run defense is going to struggle bad this year.
