I feel their is unfair bias against baker mayfield . Year 1 2018, browns go 7-8-1 after previous seasons 1-15 2016, 0-16 2017. Coach Hugh jackson, enuff said!! Baker supporting cast nick chubb also rookie, wrs jarvis landrey, breshard perriman, antonio callaway, njoku..njoku was not a good player until last year=fact. Coaches- hue jackson fired and greg williams (def coord)
2019 browns go 6-10 Head coach freddie kitchens..offensive help *chubb and K hunt good rbs..wrs Obj, Landry, R higgins, Njoku. Personally despise Obj and feel he quits on his team when the going gets tough/ and takes plays off when he is not involved which gives tells to the defenses. Njoku as i said was a non factor in his early career, bad routes , drops, confidence,,etc...Freddie Kitchens subpar coach agree?
2020 Head coach Stefanski browns go 11-5 beat steelers 48-37 playoffs and lose to kc 22-17 2nd round playoffs... Off supporting cast chubb, hunt-good rbs.. wrs landry, higgins , d p jones, austin hooper, njoku . baker best season 26td 8int
2021 Stefanski brown record 8-9 off support - chubb , hunt- good...wrs Landry, DPJ, Higgins..TE- Hooper, Njoku.. Baker injured week 2 partially torn labrum..week 6 reaggravated torn labrum..week 10 right knee contusion..Baker played the season with serious shoulder injury to left shoulder. Basically his whole season was played under duress/injured.
2022 Panthers Week 5 high ankle sprain and you know the rest..Rhule fired,,qbs mayfield, darnold and pj walker. Baker leaves panthers to finish out season with rams and mcvay = a good offensive coach
Baker has lit up the scoreboard and has had some memorable games against lamar, mahomes, burrows, Carr, Hebert where his offense produced. And yes he has had some games where the offense was a dud..but why..some is on him. some on coaching , and some on supporting cast. I think he is better than given credit for. Yes he has an abrasive personality but he is aggressive with the ball and can make plays outside of scheme breakdown and can play within scheme. I am not saying he is great but I believe he is arguably the best qb out of Carr, Garropolo, tanehill, cousins, darnold etc. Anyways for the right price in right environment he aint bad.
His main desirable trait is he'll be inexpensive and he's still got upside. I believe he'll be one of the possibilities they explore.

Agreed, wouldn't mind it at all
I found this 11 min. video on panthers website of baker's best throws. Wow I am shocked it is pretty damn good of his best plays. Check it out of couse this is highlights not his lowlights, but damn it is impressive, kinda shocked me .

He's a young guy with upside who is affordable. I could certainly see him as a candidate.
There was a reason Cleveland traded him away and the Panthers cut him.
I saw a video of an amazing blind squirrel finding nuts. How'd he do that?I found this 11 min. video on panthers website of baker's best throws.

Best free agent qb not named Rodgers..let's see what happens
Aaah that baker aint too shabby of a qb!! he has ended 3 games in victory formation...thats nice

That's because his career stats are similar to Winston's, not counting this year.
Mayfield's stat line from today's game at the Saints: 25/32 246yds 3tds 1int 8runs 31yds, and the win. And his #1 WR was out for more than a half. Not too shabby for any NFL QB. Brady probably would have liked to have had that stat line during some of his regular season games vs the Saints during his 3 year stint here. Remember 38-3 loss and 9-0 loss during his first two seasons here.
And, the stats don't show Mayfield avoiding the rush, extending plays, and making key runs. He just might be a good fit here.
I was skeptical af, but I’m starting to like him. It’s his style, it’s grit and heart….and often ugly and beautiful at the same time. I’m rooting for him.
