Probably not a bad take by Carolina. The Browns were backed into a corner and had no choice but to essentially give him away.

Carolina doesn't have anything at QB now. It's worth a shot to see if a guy who has at least had moments of success can do something in a new place. If it doesn't work out, Carolina goes from a losing team to a...losing team.

Cleveland has long be a mess. But Mayfield had FAR too much hubris and lack of accountability on his part. Maybe facing the reality that his old team had to essentially pay someone else to take him will humble him a little bit.

Baker had an all pro offensive line, two of the best RBs in the game, great receivers and a great defense in Cleveland, and he couldn't even be an average QB. He is going to be as bad as Darnold in Carolina, because he sucks like Darnold.

My thoughts as well. Great gamble by Carolina; not giving up a lot, but if he gets it together has the physical tools to be an above average QB

It's a great take.

A 2024 conditional 5th and only 5 mil in salary.

Seems like rhule wants to run the ball, play defense, and hit the play action.

That panthers d is legit. Still not worried about them in the slightest. Rhule will leave some nice pieces for whoever the next coach is.
