Once the Browns have to start paying Baker next year they will fall off a cliff. I personally believe he's a good qb, but not a qb that can carry a team when you pay him top 10 qb money (which he will demand.)
Lamar is great, but I still feel like his style of play is not sustainable for 5+ years. And again, he is going to demand top 5 qb money next year.
It cannot be underestimated how much you have to depend on your qb to carry the team once you start paying them 15% (or more) of your total team salary. Of all the AFCN quarterbacks, I would entrust that kind of responsibility on Burrow more than any of the others.
