Baker Mayfield Thread - UPDATE - Traded to Panthers

[CGI_Ram]

All things considered, *if they were smart*, they would would hold on to JG thru TC/PS. Surely a team will lose their QB, and would make a panic trade a la Bradford to the Vikings

This. It is their best move at this point.

Shhhhh!

Speaking of Davis Mills...

My friend's son just got back from Mills' QB Camp up in Norcross GA. Mills paid for everything for the kids he invited. My friend just had to take his son up there and Mills took care of both of them for the whole camp. I think he had 25 kids in this camp from all over the country. Sounds like a great dude.

Sorry for the thread high jack lol. But my friend just sent this to me yesterday.

Yeah I'm big on players giving back as most know here and these camps are a big way a lot of them do. Not all of them have the big money for foundations but these kind of things are great.

My friend sent me this story about the camp...

Texans quarterback pays it forward with Davis Mills QB Challenge

NORCROSS, Ga. — "I actually hated camps as a kid. It's no fun to stand in lines with 200-300 people." Despite Davis Mills status as a consensus five-star quarterback, with many outlets ranking him as the top quarterback recruit of the 2017 class, he took issue…

I don't see Garoppolo ending up in Cleveland for that reason regardless of the Watson scenario. If not staying with San Francisco IMO, Garoppolo will be traded to Houston because of former Patriot Nick Caserio being there & it's hard for me to fathom even with the Texans being a joke that they feel Davis Mills is a viable option.

He finished strong down the stretch last season. It is an interesting situation though. Can Lovie get that team believing and will he have the QB play.

Here's an interesting SI article where they talk him up quite a bit. The guy has a big incomplete thus far but I can see how Texans fans might be thinking why not.

Rumors now are that Tampa are thinking about trading for Jimmy to be backup/successor to TB12 again.

That said, Cleveland with 15 mill locked in at the QB position, and that doesnt even count Watson, makes it hard to fathom how (and why) they squeeze JG's 25 mill under the cap.

I suppose if Watson is suspended for a year they could use Garoppolo as a one year stop gap. But they would be investing something like 70 million or more for that position.

Cleveland has $48M of cap space in 2022.

It seems absurd, but the cap hit for Baker is $10.5, and Watson’s is $10M in 2022… They can fit Jimmy, if they want to.

IMO that would be a good move for Tampa

10 mill for Baker, 10 mill for Watson, 5 mill for Brissett and JG has a 25 mill tag. 50 mill of cap space spent and Jimmy G is what you have to show for it? I know Cleveland is gonna Brown and all but like the old saying, "Just because I can afford to pay a million dollars for a hot dog, doesnt mean I'll pay a million for a hot dog"
But? Cleveland....

Wow, that's more than what they paid Hue Jackson to do the same thing!

Well… They are more experienced now. They also know the market has gone up. It costs more (now) to pay others to beat you.

Panthers have become a really interesting team. Might be another dumpster fire but they have some serious talent and that division has room for a team to rise.

I just wonder if Mayfield will win the job. Can he go in there and take that shit in camp. His mechanics looked like shit at times last year and tbh I don't know that he wants to fix them or that he has time to fix all that. But again I think McAdoo is underrated as a coordinator and at least they have given him talent to work with.

It's going to be fun watching that division unfold in the early going. That owner is loaded and he is hell bent on winning, so you know there's pressure we'll see if they crack.

David Tepper is the wealthiest owner in the NFL. He's worth more than Kroenke unless you factor in Stan's wife.

Stan's Net worth 10.7
Ann Walton Kroenke 8.1

David Tepper's Net Worth 16.7
