Maybe so, but both Wentz and Mayfield should have had negative trade values because of their contracts. Sure, both players are better than the QBs the Commanders already had but neither really adds as much value to the team as their contracts dictate. The Commanders could reasonably have expected to get as much improvement, or more, by spending the money on FAs. The Commanders overpaid to make a splash, just so they can say they made a splash.How ever if the Washington traded for Baker ( instead of Wentz) what would the cost of been? Hard to say now, but at the time of the Wentz trade I think Browns would of wanted more then two 3rd round picks.
