Draft note

by John Paulsen

In 29 career starts, Mayfield has averaged 254 yards, 1.7 touchdowns and 1.2 interceptions. He only adds 9.4 rushing yards per game, so he’s mainly a pocket passer. The resulting 15.7 points per game would have been the 18th-highest per game average last season. He’s playing for a new head coach, Kevin Stefanski, who was extremely run-heavy in calling plays for the Vikings, but Kirk Cousins was very productive on a per attempt basis, fantasy-wise. The Browns went out and signed pass-catcher Austin Hooper which could be viewed as an indication that Stefanski may open things up now that he’s not trying to please the defensive-minded Mike Zimmer in Minnesota. The Browns also signed T Jack Conklin, drafted T Jedrick Wills and traded for FB Andy Janovich, which signal a run-heavy offense.

Browns Beat: QB Baker Mayfield, TE Austin Hooper forming chemistry

The Athletic

Aug 24 · 9:21 PM EDT

If there were a best friend award for the first week-plus of camp workouts, it would go to Baker Mayfield and Austin Hooper. The new tight end has been Mayfield’s most frequent target in any competitive passing drill.

Fantasy Impact:

What's even better is Hooper is generally first in line for extra work with Mayfield when the special teams’ drills take over the primary practice field, the story said. Hooper is 14th on our TE list; he takes a hit due to switching teams. But maybe this chemistry formation will move him closer to the top by the end of the season.

CLE QB Baker Mayfield - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Washington Football Team
Even in a big day for the Cleveland offense, Baker Mayfield took a backseat to Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt in Week 2 as the Browns steamrolled the Bengals on Thursday night. Mayfield did have his best performance of the year by throwing for 219 yards and two scores, but he added an ugly interception and acted mostly as a game manager aside from a long touchdown to Odell Beckham. Now he gets a tough date with a fierce Washington front seven. The Washington Football Team has plenty of weaknesses, but the pass rush is not one of them and we have ample evidence of Mayfield's struggles under pressure. Even coming off a solid performance last week, Mayfield is not a starter in single quarterback leagues.
