Not getting paid sounds like a good idea.

Browns wont have a QB he has leverage

Browns wont have a QB he has leverage

You know as well as I do country, competition is part of the game. If Cleveland thinks they got a better QB they should have made the move. He has been better than Mayfield has been. Baker would be stupid to hold out and not get paid.

Same here in Washington. What is bad in having more than one good RB in your backfield. Guys who are fighting to keep their jobs usually play better than guys who are assured they have the job.

Actually if he sits the Browns don't need to pay him. He will lose 1.4M for every game missed including preseason games.

The Browns won't cut him because if they do they still pay him. They can try to trade him, and sitting with the 1.4M per game fine makes it easier to do so

He can always say he has an injury and cant play all the while showing up like his contract says the Browns are fucked the first 4 games of the season

If he claims injury and its a non football injury I believe the club has the option not to pay him.

I'm not positive as his contract is guaranteed, but we all know the NFL has protected itself so I'm leaning to this being a team option.

Now if he practiced one play, got "injured" he'd get paid.

the best thing for mayfield is to show up and play and force the browns to make the call

Makes sense. Maybe after june 1st we’ll see some movement.

 

[skinsdad62]

They have to make a run and extend TMAC . Is there any player out there who makes the commies a legit super bowl contender ? If not just save your money

 

[Stymietee]

Hmmm

Fear paralyze, even if he would have gotten an entire year, trading for him would have been well worth it. 3 to 4 games for he says, she (all 22) says IMO is still too much. Oh well, he's a Clevelander now. We have Wince!!! { SIGH}

 

[Stymietee]

Baker Mayfield should hold out and tell them to go fuck themselves

Perhaps not the whole "fuck themselves" thing but if I'm advising him, they would certainly have to pay more than the 18M owed this year using their own motto... "Sorry business is business."

The team to beat in the division just got better!!

What a novel idea ( never stop believing that you can get better then acting upon it)

This Washington group can learn a lot watching their rivals.

Problem is, had they extended him before all of these WRs began getting paid, they could have gotten him for around 20M per.

Now the starting point is 22 to 23M. This is poor planning and organizational malfeasance especially for one that appears to be penny pinchers or incapable of manipulating the salary cap.

ESPN lost a whopping 8 million cable subscribers in 2021, nearly 22,000 people a day, the most in cable history. The math is clear, the company is dead as a viable business, streaming can’t save it & Disney should sell it while it still can.

Being political is hurting them as well

 

[chillerdab]

Uh huh.

Any day now I’m sure ESPN will fold up their tent and leave.
