During the draft process, Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield was being compared to Drew Brees.
Part of it was because Mayfield’s stature is similar to Brees. But he was also compared to Brees because of how well he can navigate the pocket.
As the Browns prepare to play the Saints this weekend, it seemed obvious that Brees was going to be asked for his opinion of Mayfield.
Brees certainly did not disappoint Browns fans, as he said Mayfield has the potential to be a better quarterback than him. For the career that Brees has put together, that is one heck of a compliment for Mayfield.
