Just watch out there isn't some mutual secret agreement that has the Bills covering some of his salary.  That Buffalo / Carolina pipeline can be a bit too 'simpatico'. 🤨

Always liked Baker, Panthers are a more stable organization than Browns for sure. 
 

I wonder if they’d release Darnold? 
 

If released, I wonder if Beane would be tempted to add another one of Josh’s besties.

I’m sure this 2018 first round QB will work out better for Carolina

Just how many are they allowed to try out? 🤔

Right Josh is available!

Panthers/Browns play each other week 1 as well!

We should be forever grateful the messed up and disfunctional Browns took Mayfield and not Josh Allen!

And the stupid Giants and Jets took Barkley and Darnold respectively.

Wonder if they just swap Darnold and Baker? Cleveland needs a qb.

That 13-10 score will be the talk of week 1.

And they’d still need one if they had Darnold

 

Cleveland needs to dump salary. They are better off rolling with Brisset for a year than taking in Darnold

Remember last year when Darnold beat the Jets and the media was like “He’s back!”

 

I look forward to that storyline

Probably not far off, lol.

 

Panthers got Darnold and opened last season against the Jets and won 19-14

That's mentioned in this Athletic article:  https://theathletic.com/news/baker-mayfield-trade-panthers-browns/8j1Jy8uFbsSp/?source=dailyemail&campaign=601983

 

Carolina's current quarterback depth chart features the No. 3 pick in the 2018 draft, Sam Darnold, rookie third-round pick Matt Corral and P.J. Walker.

The Panthers could try to get Cleveland to take Darnold in the deal. Like Mayfield, Darnold is set to make a guaranteed $18.8 million after the Panthers picked up his fifth-year option.

And Panthers have like $30M in cap.

 

This trade proposal is interesting:

 

Cleveland gives Baker and a 2nd

Panthers give Robbie Anderson, and take on Baker and Anderson's salaries.

I’m curious why the Panthers would part with Anderson? Rhule needs to win now

I heard he is unhappy and making it known. But I dont follow them closely or know for sure.

Yea but how would that solve Cleveland's problem?
