Baker Mayfield on Daniel Jones Pick

armstead98 : 8/20/2019 8:30 am
“I cannot believe the Giants took Daniel Jones. Blows my mind…Some people overthink it [what makes a good quarterback]. That’s where they go wrong. They forget you’ve gotta win.”

From the GQ article.

I saw Dan Duggan tweeted that quote  
bceagle05 : 8/20/2019 8:31 am : link
and thought it was something he made up as a joke. What a prick Mayfleld is.
Wow  
bradshaw44 : 8/20/2019 8:36 am : link
What a classless prick. I've been a Mayfield defender. But this is insane. And not because DJ is a Giant. You just shouldn't talk about another player in the league like that unless I suppose if you two openly hate each other. This was just a cheap shot out of left field. Unless they have bad blood I don't know about.

I guess this is Baker trying to grow repour with Odell.

I’ve defended him as well and if the context is how it sounds then he can fuck right off.
If they had an award for the most obnoxious player in the nfl,  
Ira : 8/20/2019 8:42 am : link
Mayfield would be a very strong candidate.
Switch teams buddy!  
nzyme : 8/20/2019 8:42 am : link
and DJ would have put up the same numbers you did. That's why it's called a team sport! The other players matter!!!

With Mayfield being outspoken and speaking his mind. But this? This is just being an asshole.
I just dont understand  
gmen9892 : 8/20/2019 8:54 am : link
What he is going for here? Does winning in college mean that you are going to be a successful NFL Quarterback? How many examples can you bring up where that is simply not the case?

Also, what is this dude's obsession with the Giants? That's 2-3 times now that Baker has come after the team or the fans. OBJ already seems to be having a good influence on this young man.
I’m glad Baker has life all figured out.

seems like the Cleveland Browns have an unhealthy obsession with a team dressed in blue.

I would suggest they focus on themselves until they win a playoff game or two.
That's jusf aiw brow cheap shot  
Matt M. : 8/20/2019 9:16 am : link
I thought he was probably the best QB comjng out, at least in terms of ready to play now. Bjt, I also wanted no part of him because I think he will implode either on or off the field in the next couple of years. NYC woulx only accelerage that.
That's alright ...

When the Browns drafted Baker, I was like “I cannot believe the Browns took Baker Mayfield. Blows my mind…".

Can't root for Rapistberger. Let's go Ravens (even if it means picking lower in BBI Mock Draft)!
Mayfield is making a big mistake going into year 2....  
BillKo : 8/20/2019 9:24 am : link
......he's putting a target on himself and the team.

This usually backfires in the NFL.
I Have a Question  
lax counsel : 8/20/2019 9:26 am : link
Is Baker Mayfield even a good quarterback? He's been in the league a minute. I was stunned when the Browns took Mayfield over Darnold.

He looked a lot better than Darnold. I didn't get the Darnold lovefest. Turnover machine at the time.
Zero doubt  
Thegratefulhead : 8/20/2019 9:32 am : link
It all implodes in Cleveland. None of them will take personal responsibility when adversity hits and they will point fingers at each other. It is going to be a shitshow.
Not surprised by this  
Post Time : 8/20/2019 9:33 am : link
He's been taking cheap shots at Texas' QB just because he went to a rival high school. How idiotic is that???
I Iiked his skillset  
Thegratefulhead : 8/20/2019 9:42 am : link
Coming out and appreciated his fire. Now I hope he gets the plague on his junk that causes him to spend the rest of his life with a crotch that smells like spoiled milk.
Says the guy who payed for Oklahoma, loaded with talent

Put Mayfield on Duke and lets see what he would be saying then
A successful season for Giants Fans..

Giants finish with a better record than Cleveland;)

Mayfield, OBJ, and Landry. What could go wrong
It surprises me  
an_idol_mind : 8/20/2019 9:55 am : link
how many people seem convinced that the Browns will be a contender this year.

The team almost hit .500 (their best record in over a decade), and people seem to have forgotten what that franchise is.
Well, everyone loves a winner  
jcn56 : 8/20/2019 10:00 am : link
But he should remember that he's a member of the Browns now...
This is really shocking to me  
English Alaister : 8/20/2019 10:08 am : link
You simply don't do shit like this. Forget about Jones being fired up, every defensive player better come out determined to hit this guy into next week when we play them.
I thought he was a punk  
Carson53 : 8/20/2019 10:11 am : link
in college, it was just a matter of time for him to show
that side of him....he should STFU and worry about his team.
BTW Baker, Jones played at Duke, not Oklahoma.
Duke is not exactly a football factory!

This would be great, except... we don't play Cleveland this preseason (or regular season) - so, that can't happen. :(
The guy

Does not pull punches. He may be a prick but he’s definitely not boring.
It’s one thing for media and fans  
10thAve : 8/20/2019 10:20 am : link
to talk about a player like this, but it’s definitely messed up for a player to talk about another player like this. Especially a player of the same position. There used to be a thing called the QB fraternity, but I guess there are dipshits everywhere.

The Browns have quickly gone from the feel-good losers to the team of douchebags. Will be interesting to see them deal with adversity once it hits this season.

The "some people overthink it" bit was actually a response to a separate question, having nothing to do with Daniel Jones. All he said about Jones was "I can't believe the Giants took him, blows my mind."

Yeah me too, I’ve defended some of his earlier statements but this is bullshit. I bet he is still sensitive about not being prototypical NFL QB size and how that affected him as a prospect early in his college career.

You’d think that he’d be over that after winning the Heisman and being the #1 overall pick.

Which stands alone to convey everything that (rightfully) upsets people here.

But I also think that the second part of the statement, which may be in response to a different question still provides context to his first statement. Especially considering the writer's emphasis on Duke's record and also Mayfield's college record.

...which is still shitty on its own. What's the point?
Mayfield is a talented player  
sshin05 : 8/20/2019 10:36 am : link
but has a big ego for someone who hasnt reach superstardom yet. Egos are something u can handle when things are going good. But if they crap the bed in Cleveland, ppl won't be able to stand him.
He's really close with Saquon and Sterling  
Eli2020 : 8/20/2019 10:40 am : link
There are tons of IG stories and photos of them from March. I wonder how this affects their relationship.
Pretty bold

from a QB with a losing record in the pros.
Mission accomplished

Classless and completely unnecessary  
Anakim : 8/20/2019 10:45 am : link
You can think it all you want, as everyone, including myself did, but being a QB means you're part of a fraternity. You don't badmouth a fellow QB.
I was a doubter so he certainly proved me wrong as a player  
Eric on Li : 8/20/2019 10:46 am : link
but man is he an unlikeable dick. That team reminds me of our roster in 2016/2017. Some really good players, some likeable, some unlikeable, but a lot of big personalities without a winning track record. And not a lot of sure things on the OL.

Said it on the other thread but I could see their season easily going either direction, 10 or 11 wins or total implosion, without much room in between.
