AFJF Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Not Jets related but heard speculation on a podcast yesterday with a former scout and current Steelers media guy say quite flippantly that they expect Baker Mayfield to get over $40 million per year. I mean, I know he had a good year but that's crazy, right? What do you think his new deal comes in at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 when the cap goes up 50 mil in 3 cap years (2022-2023-2024) then this is the effect on QB salary considering the middle tier Derek Carr Aaron Rodgers 35+ mil level for what we assume is similar play to Baker, the playoff run, it that isn't crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section314 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Is he a top 10 guy? If yes, 40 mm is probably in the ballpark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Beerfish Posted March 7 Popular Post Share Posted March 7 This is the EXACT type of QB you do NOT pay the big dollars to. If someone else wants to hand him like 30 million let him go. No way I give him more than like 20. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ppl forget he had one of the greatest rookie seasons ever, turned one of the worst franchises around with a playoff win in 20 and had an excellent season. He then got hurt with his shoulder and for some idiotic reason Cleveland got rid of him for a pervert I literally saw baker come off the couch and in a couple weeks light up the broncos in a blow out.

And they’ll largely ride the same train that Minnesota has with Cousins for the last 5 years or that New Orleans will with Carr for the foreseeable future. Or that the Jets rode with Pennington. For as much as I liked Chad, any hope of him being an upper echelon QB was realistically squashed in 2004. Being stuck with a guy like this just ensures purgatory.

I mean, I know he had a good year but that's crazy, right? What do you think his new deal comes in at? He’ll probably get a 3 year 100-120 but only first year will be guaranteed. He won’t get the guarantees the studs have gotten. Starting qb pay is entering the 55-60 mill range. A starter at 30-40 is a bargain if you’re getting a 4-4.5k 28td and 10 ints or better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rex-n-effect Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Mayfield is a high risk/high reward acquisition. He's had a lot of injuries and uneven performance as a result. Any long term contract is rolling the dice that he'll avoid injury and have more good streaks than bad. I wouldn't pay him top tier compensation but I suspect he can find a team that would.

They have no real choice but to pay him, unless they want a rebuild. And you don’t pay Evan’s and not sign Baker. I’ve always like Carr more than him and now I think I have swung the other way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Darnold Schwarzenegger Posted March 8 Popular Post Share Posted March 8 Baker is a solid qb. Not top 10. Not bottom 10. Somewhere in the middle. And there’s nothing wrong with that. he may never win a SB but he is a solid qb.
