Despite Baker Mayfield's outstanding training camp performance, the Cleveland Browns coach Hue Jackson has been adamant in keeping Tyrod Taylor as their starting quarterback.

This year’s draft The Browns decided to use their number one pick to select the Oklahoma player Baker Mayfield, who won the 2017 Heisman Award. From the moment he started the training camps he has displayed the same phenomenal level he had previously in the NCAA. According to Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, the No.1 overall pick hasn’t thrown an interception in camp. The Cleveland coach himself said that Mayfield is even exceeding the expectations.

“Baker Mayfield has been everything I thought a quarterback should be for our organization thus far,” Jackson said, according to SB Nation. “He’s doing the things that we want him to do the way we want him to do it, and he’s exceeding those things because he’s putting in the time.”

However, he has made clear that he won’t be the team’s starting quarterback. “Baker Mayfield is doing great. Tyrod Taylor is doing great. This thing is going to play out just like I told you it would. I am not going to change.”

Tyrod Taylor arrived this season to Cleveland when the Buffalo Bills agreed to trade him for a 2018 third-round draft pick. He was the Bills' starting quarterback for the last three seasons where he did the job helping the team to reach the postseason for the first time since 1999. Nevertheless, the former Buffalo player never entirely convinced the team who even benched him for a game after a blowout loss against the Saints in which Taylor only threw for 56 yards.

The rookie player will have to wait patiently for his turn to play and the last quarterback of the Cleveland Browns who got drafted in the No.1 overall pick thinks this is the right thing to do. Tim Couch, who was the starting quarterback in his rookie season in 1999, told Cleveland.com: “I know it’s frustrating for Baker not be starting right away, but it will benefit him long term.”

Who better than Couch to say this. The former Brown quarterback threw 13 interceptions in his first year in the league, took 56 sacks, and ended up playing only five seasons.

Let’s hope this is the right decision for the Cleveland Browns, a franchise who has been highly disappointing for the last twenty years, only making the playoffs once.
