2018. Mayfield (1). Darnold (3) Allen (7). Rosen (10) Jackson (32). Best for now was last, although Allen may end up the best of the bunch. Mayfield will never be a franchise QB. At best middle of the pack. Rosen a bust. Darnold the jury is out.

Lex, thanks for that compilation, interesting. I'm just curious about your comment on Baker Mayfield. Seems like he's taken over Cleveland well and for good. No?
What I mean by franchise QB is a fixture for years and the unquestioned leader of a playoff caliber and eventual SB potential team. That is what a No 1 overall QB pick is hoped to be.
While he certainly is Cleveland’s QB for the immediate future. I just see him as never being more than a middle of the pack QB. Just my opinion. He could prove me wrong.
Jets game a great example. Yes, he had a lot going against him. 4 receivers, including Landry, out. But good QBs find a way. He stunk it up. In a game they needed.
