Seattle Seahawks: Opinions divided about trading for Baker Mayfield
Joe Swenson
Mayfield has some skills that could be desirable. The Browns have cramped Baker’s capabilities. So if he’s inexpensive, make the deal. If it costs Seattle anything more than a third rounder, then no thanks, we can wait a year.
David Champion
I think Baker would be a good fit in Seattle, much like Matt Hasselbeck. Hear me out Matt was there to not lose a game while they tried to develop a running game.
Yes, I know that they didn’t go to the Super Bowl, but they made it to the playoffs on a 7-9 record. That was when the beast came out.
If the price is cheap, then I say take Mayfield for a year because, in the next draft, there will be some quality quarterbacks coming out that fit the NFL.
I might be bilious, I followed Baker in college, and I thought he had lots of potential to succeed in the NFL. He needs the right system to excel.
Herb Nightengale
I would make the trade for Baker Mayfield if the cost isn’t too high. A quarterback who has more success than they have on their roster is a good thing. The Seahawks need to build through the draft whether they are rebuilding or retooling.
