The 2021 season hasn’t even begun, and already various media members are bashing Browns’ quarterback Baker Mayfield.
Why exactly? Perhaps these expert analysts are not convinced that Mayfield is actually the answer for the Browns. Or perhaps, they are comparing him to other quarterbacks that were taken in the exact same draft such as Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens and the Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen.
All three QB’s are in their fourth year of their five-year rookie contract. All three have been expecting their fifth-year option to not be picked up, but simply an extension would be worked out instead.
