Will Mayfield be the star quarterback the Browns need?

For the past two years, the Cleveland Browns have had the first overall draft pick. In 2017, Myles Garrett, a former defensive end for the Texas A&M Aggies, fell into the curse of the Cleveland Browns. The #1 victim of 2018 is Baker Mayfield, a former quarterback for the Oklahoma Sooners.

Erasing months of speculation that USC’s Sam Darnold or Wyoming’s Josh Allen would land at No. 1, Browns general manager John Dorsey opted for Mayfield, the Oklahoma signal-caller who doubles as the draft’s most-accurate passer,” wrote Marc Sessler of NFL.com.

The Cleveland Browns hope to perform the difficult job of rebuilding a team that hit the lowest of lows in 2017, a 0-16 record. Baker Mayfield plans to give his new team at least one win in his inaugural season in the NFL. Will Mayfield be the star quarterback the Browns need? Or will be Browns repeat their ‘success’ and wind up with the first draft again in 2019?
