What a weird few years it's been

[Mr. Scot]

Dumped Cam Newton...

Signed Teddy Bridgewater...

Signed (and kept) PJ Walker...

Traded for Sam Darnold...

Traded away Teddy Bridgewater...

Passed on the 2021 draft options...

Did everything in our power to stupidly pursue Deshaun Watson...

Drafted Matt Corral...

And today, Baker Mayfield.

I'm dizzy now

You gotta keep swinging until you hit. That's about the most positive way I can spin it.

I’m still waiting for signings of Delhomme and Brian St. Pierre.  Gotta catch ‘em all!

I'm just glad that it's legitimately a good deal. The FO seems to be learning in more ways than one.

At least this one has legitimately and singularly not sucked at points in the past. That's progress, right?

Well, there's swinging like Babe Ruth and there's swinging like Mighty Casey...

This is a horrible day.

Well, even the wind of whiffs feels good on these current hot summer days. 

I'd give us at least a middling chance to actually be competitive on the field this year, and if things go well, we'll be competitive in the win-loss column by 2023. We have at least one solid backup out of the three---uhh, four---and perhaps a long term starter with a little favor from the football gods.

By this logic we’ll eventually get Trevor Lawrence, but only after we get Trey Lance the year before.

I can appreciate the teams efforts to keep trying to get better. Brrdgewater, Darnold and Baker have all been big upside, low downside moves.

Agree with these opinions above.  I'd rather see them continue to try within reason, and this move for Baker is reasonable.  Not sure how you can be mad....Corral wasn't ever going to be ready to start week 1 this year.

I think we're more likely to get Johnny Lawrence
