The topic of whether to give him 40-45 million a year after this season came up on ESPN today. The resounding answer was NO.

Oh no way. Which is why the Browns will do it

He has been hurt this year, but he is probably the 3rd best QB from the class and not even the best in his division 

 

He's the 3rd best QB in his division.

 

Lamar then Burrow, who looks really good. Then Baker, but it's close between him and what's left of Big Ben. 

 

That said, I hope Cleveland gives him a huge contract because then they'll have to make some roster choices.

Not sure how the Browns let Mayfield walk after decades of ineptitude.  Could see them using the franchise tag for a couple years until it becomes too exorbitant to do so.  And it buys them more time.

I am kind of surprised the Ravens haven't paid Lamar yet. I think he has done enough to prove he is the guy. Baker not getting paid is no surprise.

Does anyone know how they ‘test out’? Anyone I’ve known that has gotten it has been told they will test positive despite getting over it for several months and would need a doctors note that they are cleared to travel and whatnot.

Browns are kind of in that Ryan tannehill hole…maybe the titans get it done this year but I think it’s too difficult to win a Superbowl with the current rules to have a qb that’s kind of a game manager/running game facilitator.  Gotta win 4 playoff games against mostly hof level qbs who can get hot at absolutely any moment

The NFL has a "CT" threshold where ot is considered like a negative test if they get a positive test with a value over 35, representing a low level of detection. Higher is actually less in this case. This allows them to get around the issue you describe.
