but he kept the Cleveland Stadium cleanIt wouldn’t to me. Mayfield is a pretty good NFL QB. His hype in college was aided a ton by playing on a team at OU with a huge talent advantage at every position in almost every game. In my view he’s overrated. Not to mention he’s a first class jerk.
Quinn Ewers to me is similar in that he also is surrounded by talent that gives him a huge advantage against most college talent. Ewers has a good arm but I’ve been underwhelmed at his accuracy at times. I don’t think QE is a jerk like Mayfield, lol.
Ewers is a very good college QB with some skills that could translate at the next level. But if I were looking for a QB to draft with high likelihood of success I would pass on Ewers.
Huge talent advantage but Didn’t Baker walk on? He was a jerk or still is a jerk, Why?It wouldn’t to me. Mayfield is a pretty good NFL QB.

Regarding Baker Mayfield as a walk on:Huge talent advantage but Didn’t Baker walk on? He was a jerk or still is a jerk, Why?
Good article. Much of it I was aware of and much of it I really did not have an issue with. The Duke Johnson piece wasn’t the best. Mayfield has been beaten down pretty good since he was thrown out of Cleveland. I’m glad that he has seemed to have found his footing with the Bucs. Hopefully he has matured some which we all seem to do at some point. I will say that I have no issues with his cockiness at all, it is after all probably what has made him successful in the past.Regarding Baker Mayfield as a walk on:
Regading Mayfield being a jerk, here are some articles you can read and decide for your self:
- In 2013 as a freshman, Mayfield was a walk on at Texas Tech. He won the starting job at first but lost it to an injury at midseason. He was mad when Coach Kliff Kingsbury told him he would he would have to “re-earn” the starting position. They had a new QB coming to Lubbock named Patrick Mahomes. Mayfield decided to transfer to OU.
- Mayfield transferred originally at OU as a walk-on. He won the starting job eventually and was placed on scholarship in his second year there. But he was originally a walk on.
- This article is a pretty good overview of his ”jerk-like behavior” at Tech, OU and at Cleveland. His teammates in Cle basically told management they didn’t want him around anymore he was so hard to work with. I do think he’s grown up a lot since he left the Browns.

his immaturity and personality held him back. The big question has he changed enough to really become elite?Good article. Much of it I was aware of and much of it I really did not have an issue with.

Listen, who doesn’t appreciate a coach who does not give u typical coach speak? That is what was so good about Parcells. Personally I have always loved the people who are a little outside of what is considered the day to day norm. Would love to see Baker be able to make some noise, not sure if the Bucs are all that though.his immaturity and personality held him back.

He certainly has the physical ability. It all comes down to what is between the ears
