Baker Mayfield Latest Asking Price Has Been Revealed

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Baker Mayfield wants out of Cleveland, but the only problem is Cleveland wants to get something in return for the former Heisman winner. Now, the Browns are desperately trying to get rid of Baker, and they cannot find a suitable trade partner.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that the Browns were seeking a first-round pick in exchange for their QB, however, it’s become clear that no one is willing pay that price.

In a new report from cleveland.com, it was revealed that the Browns have significantly lowered their asking price.

“But with very few options for Mayfield right now, the Browns aren’t seeking a first-round pick to make up for one of the three they shipped to the Texans in exchange for Deshaun Watson. At this point, it’s unrealistic to expect they’ll land a selection that high. They’d take less, but they also know it might be difficult for a team to take on Mayfield’s $18.86 million guaranteed salary unless he’s absolutely their starter.”

At this point the Cleveland Browns have zero leverage when it comes to a Mayfield trade, and with most teams all set with their QB situations.

It’s looking like Mayfield might be relegated to backup status in 2022.
