Once upon a time, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield looked to be on his way toward officially wearing the bust label. Mayfield was the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns after lighting up defenses and winning a Heisman Trophy at Oklahoma.
Despite showing that he could take the Browns to heights they hadn't been to much since re-entering the league in 1999, that apparently wasn't good enough for Cleveland. Mayfield played through an injury in 2021 and, as a result, didn't play to the best of his ability, and that was something the Browns used against him that offseason.
