Baker Mayfield is cut from a different cloth than most NFL quarterbacks. For one, he’s willing to make any throw at just about any time. It hurt him a little bit in Houston and Baltimore this year, but decision-making is a part of who he is—it’s an unrelenting, unwavering confidence in his own ability, and the idea that he can make anything happen with his smarts and arm.
And you know what? It’s got him where he is today. He’s undersized, he’s not particularly mobile, and he was the first overall pick in last season’s draft.
