What kind of effort would you get? From a guy hoping to prove he is healthy so he can be traded AND also earn a contract extension?

Once again, try and think like someone who does not just hate baker for a minute (and/or the Browns).
Mayfield isn't worried about being unemployed. He's has 4 years in the league and what you see is what you'll get and that is how teams will evaluate Mayfield. A serious injury would really put a damper on his prospects, this is what players in the final year of contracts worry about,talk about and care about.

Yet he just played with a badly injured shoulder that needed surgery?

Seriously...please just say you are messing with me at this point.

would add I don't think Baker plays again for us, but idea it's impossible is farfetched. Certainly more likely than him just being released or dealt in a bad deal.

One of two things are going to happen.
1) Mayfield gets traded and I do think this is what happens, but for pennies on the dollar.
2) He gets cut.

You realize this is your opinion, right? I mean, they have the cap space (and then some) to carry his contract as opposed to move him in a bad deal or pay him to potentially beat us.

Still, my favorite in all this is you claiming the homer in me wants the QB for whom we traded a massive haul AND signed to a record setting deal to incur a long suspension. That is comedy gold.

What? I never said that, never implied that, never even thought that.

Yes.....he actually would.....your backups are Will Grier and Ben DiNucci. You start either of them if Dak had a bad injury and your 'Boys go 3-14 or 4-13..

LOL.
Cooper Rush is the BU, and no Jerry ain't trading to pay Mayfield 18+M

LOL at Cooer Rush, like he's some prize. Sorry, he may get you to 5-12 maybe.....if Dak got hurt. LOL.

Jerry would trade a 3rd or 4th in a heartbeat if the Browns paid a portion of his salary.....in a fucking heartbeat......rather than miss the playoffs again.

What about if Carr goes down? Do they then trade for Mayfield?

Never said he's a prize, but it's obvious you don't know the Cowboys roster, nor the fact about Dallas not throwing money at outside talent.
If Dak geys hurt I'd wager Mayfield isn't brought in.

If it were for 4-6 weeks I'd roll with Mullens. He's not a bad backup and a lot better than Rush.

Season long? Hell yes, in a heartbeat. For a 4th rounder if the Browns ate about 10-12 mill of his contract because I don't think we have much available.

why would they cut him to potentially pay him to beat us?
because they don’t want him on the team and he has no trade value?

plus Baker just isn’t any good so going to another team isn’t likely to help them beat anyone

In fact, in post 878 when asked how I was a homer, this was your reply.....

"Think you need to cut the idea that Mayfield ever takes another snap for the Browns because that's not happening. That idea is just some homer fantasy."

Once again, comedy gold that you think it's my fantasy Baker plays again for the Browns as the only way that happens is if Watson is suspended.

I get it's not in you to man up and just own you made a foolish comment.....but you did.

If making it up as you go do better. Be more creative. Likely if Watson was not available Baker would still be the starter.

And? What does that have to do with anything? They now don't want him on the team. What is it exactly you are even arguing at this point? You don't make any sense

IF Watson is suspended he will not be starting. See if you can take it from there.

Again. What does that have to do with anything? I was the one who said Baker may be starting if Watson were suspended and would less likely to be cut if Watson were suspended to start the year in the first quote you copied and commented on. You seem so ready to argue that you don't even know what you are arguing

At this point that last comment is priceless as you are pretty much arguing with yourself. You say no one wants him and the Browns don't want him around (that was the comment to which I replied) yet you also say he may be starting if Watson is suspended.

Ya gotta love this forum.

Correct. No other team wants him. The Browns don't want him around and yet if Watson is suspended to start the year they may be forced to not only keep him but play him in spite of the fact that they are doing everything possible to unload him for literally anything. Yet somehow you don't understand and pretend it's others...

If they didn't want him around they could just not have him around. IF they might start him if watson is suspended you are a walking (well, typing) contradiction of yourself.

You also don't know they are trying to unload him "for literally anything". If they would take anything it's likely he would be gone.

As I said earlier, if you want to make it up anyway be more creative.
