I don’t see one too much better than the other. as a matter of fact I probably would of taken Mariotta, jaemis, or Trubisky in FA over mayfield. not saying Mayfield is a bad QB but I’m honestly not a fan of his…. You ever meet someone that you really just don’t like? That’s how I feel about mayfield. I get a “I’m center of attention” vibe from him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Draper Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I really hope this guy works out and the trade seems a lot better today than when it happened. Still think he was going to be released and you could have paid no compensation above his insane contract and he would have signed. He seems like a nice guy but his bad plays are so bad they remind me of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e16bball Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I definitely consider Baker to be more comparable to Wentz than Heinicke. Baker with one arm and one leg was similar to Heinicke last season. He has a substantially better arm and has actually been excellent in his NFL career. The problem with Baker is that you have (at most) one season to decide what to do with him long-term. If he plays great, which he’s done before, you have to lock in to a mega-contract or risk losing him. Or you could play the franchise tag game with him, but we’ve already seen how that goes. No thank you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troublez Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I watched his press conference, read every report out there, watched some old film - I am genuinely excited that we have him at QB. We still have significant opportunity to improve our team through FA and Draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be more consistent in the short to intermediate range. If he does that, he’ll really thrive for us. Chris Ballard said Wentz needs to hit more of the layups, if he can do that, then he’ll be really good for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Snyder was the one to draft Haskins is proof of this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irsay might be the main culprit but the Colts as an organization were clearly done with him. Look, I hope this thing works out. I’d love nothing more than to not have to worry about the QB position for the next 5-7 years but good QBs don’t just get dumped by multiple franchises in back to back years. Especially one that didn’t have a replacement. It’s a gigantic red flag That’s also why I said in this draft they need to target offensive firepower. London/Olave/Wilson/Burks/Jameson Williams and Trey McBride. Surround him with as many weapons as possible and just let him sling it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
