As the Browns continue moving forward with Deshaun Watson as QB1, one prominent question still remains: What will happen with Baker Mayfield?
During his predraft press conference on Friday, Browns general manager Andrew Berry expectedly addressed the elephant in the room but declined to discuss any progress being made toward a resolution. However, the GM did address Mayfield’s recent comments stating he felt “disrespected” and misled by the organization.
Berry, who previously expressed regret over how the Watson trade went down, reiterated the team was “transparent” with Mayfield’s representatives about their pursuit of the ex-Texans QB before telling reporters he empathized with the former No. 1 pick’s point of view.
