Baker Mayfield traded....

[*SHRacerX*]

I am somewhat shocked, but glad for him (and let's be honest, the dude balled when he played the Bengals) that Baker Mayfield has been traded to the Carolina Panthers for a 5th round pick, that could become a 4th based on playing time.

Mayfield agreed to a $3 million dollar pay cut, the Browns are paying $10 million of his salary, and the Panthers are paying just $5 million.

The Panthers are the big winners here. No matter what you feel about his often douchey behavior, Mayfield has shown he can play at a high level in the NFL which is WAY more than the likes of Sam Darnold can say.

Here is the fun part: The week 1 opponent for the Panthers (at home) is none other than the Cleveland Browns.
