With the Panthers and the Browns, Baker Mayfield was seeking a place to call home. They apparently couldn't come to an agreement on how to split his $18.8 million base contract, prompting the Panthers to turn to Matt Corral.
What's ahead for Mayfield now?
Both the Panthers and Falcons saw quarterbacks score touchdowns. The Seahawks, though, did not. The Lions and Saints are two more teams under inquiry.
Seattle seemed to be an easy choice, but they have shown no interest in Mayfield. Perhaps they will now, as Cleveland's election nears its conclusion and their expectations shift.
Carolina might have made a strong impact on Mayfield, potentially leading her to reduce one of her salaries in order to get the opportunity to go to a new city and have the kind of year required to establish a contract base in 2023. He'll have to keep an eye on things now. It will be the same with the Browns.
The addition of the Steelers would be fantastic for Cleveland. Kenny Pickett suggests the worst scenario for the Browns – cutting Mayfield and dealing him with the Steelers – is doubtful. Unfortunately, the Browns may not have a better chance tonight than they had last night.
Everything in Cleveland now comes at a high price. They put a $ 230 million bet upon Deshaun Watson, who arrived with 22 distractions. Mayfield is providing the Browns with another distraction.
Mayfield, other than a rookie, agreed to have a contract of 1 year. Anybody who gets him in the deal ought to be ready to perform him straight away. If the Saints really aren't committed to Jameis Winston as many claims, they are indeed a possibility.
Mayfield has been dissatisfied with their performance thus far. Yes, he will still get $ 18.8 million in the year and regardless of the result. Will you, nevertheless, be capable of turning 2022 into the biggest payout in 2023?
For that to happen, he has to be capable of playing. Unless such Lions are ready to kick Jared Goff in the shins (or even the Texans decide Davis Mills is not really the solution, or the Giants decide to go on to Daniel Jones now rather than the latter), Mayfield will become the starter. And the Browns are in a bind.
