With the Cleveland Browns letting it be known that they are a fan of Baker Mayfield, Mayfield is climbing up many NFL Mock Draft boards. Expect that trend to reverse post-NFL Combine, though.
Expect many of these big name rookie QBs to fall on draft day, with veteran QBs like Kirk Cousins, Case Keenum and Nick Foles available on the free market. The Eagles just won a Super Bowl having gone from 7-9 to 13-3, giving the current bottom tier of the NFL hope that a quick turnaround is right around the corner. The safest way to a quick turnaround, of course, is to ride a veteran quarterback all season long instead of throwing a rookie QB to the wolves.
