He may benefit from a complete derth of quality FA QB's next offseason. Outside MAYBE Lamar Jackson, there is no high caliber FA QB in 2023.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him with a shorter term but expensive contract. Provided he plays well this season, of course.

At the same time there doesn't seem to be a bunch of teams desperate for a FA starter next year. Bucs/Giants/Lions/Seahawks? 2-3 of those might say fug it and rebuild after this year

It depends, Miami could sour on Tua, Ravens could decide to let Lamar go, Steelers may decide they don't have their guy, Texans may move on from Mills, Eagles may decide none of their QB's is the guy, Washington may decide none of their QB's are the guy, Chicago may get cold feet on Fields, Falcons may decide they need a QB, Saints DO need a QB.

 

Those are all situations that aren't that far from changing in the next season.

Actually if Baker plays well, and we decided to resign him, those QB moves would probably bring down the non elite QB market. Again, good for us.

It could bring it down or it could make it rise. It depends on which dominoes fall and what the market is for each of the QB's that is now out of a job. For the most part, the bulk of those QB's wouldn't be viewed very favorably by the NFL as a whole.

Good point. I was thinking more about that supposedly deep QB class. Some of those guys seem to have great potential. I could see a team balking at Mayfield and going with one of these rookies.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
