If the Colts Sign Baker

[Oldcolt]

Baker sounds like a prick. Not saying that is a bad thing (I would much rather have a prick than anyone who is even on the rapey scale), but if he wants the Colts I have a feeling he will make sure that the Colts are the team he is traded to, if we want him. Everyone available has been cast aside and looks like crap right now. It is up to Ballard to shift through this morass of QBs and find the one who can actually turn things around. Surely with this many out there one of them has to be better than the rest. Ballard needs to find that one, whomever it is.

Like waste a year of JT's, Leonard's, Q's, etc. prime by handing the QB position to Ehlinger?

Maybe having a team dump him will set Baker on the right path. Didn't work for Wentz, but maybe it will for Baker.

I’d be interested in knowing exactly what he told the Browns when he requested a trade to Indy.

I mean, theoretically he has no leverage here. The Browns can send him wherever they want. He doesn’t have a no trade clause.

As opposed to giving up more picks for a junk qb that wont win a SB for us?

If we give up less to get Mayfield than what we got in return for Wentz then it's worth the risk IMO. He had a bad year last year, but he was hurt. Before the shoulder injury he had improved every year despite their organization being a dumpster fire.
