#1 Baker Mayfield is the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft
If somebody says that they had expected Baker Mayfield to be the first overall pick in this year's draft then you should clearly call their bluff as even the most experienced draft analyzers had Mayfield going only as high as third overall in their mock drafts. The sense of shock was clearly evident on even the most ardent of Browns fans when the pick was announced as most were expecting either of Sam Darnold or Josh Allen to go first.
Mayfield is shorter than the average NFL QB but still has shown excellent vision and accuracy in his college days to be drafted 1st overall. How he handles the pressure and grows behind Tyrod Taylor will be an interesting and nerve-racking experience for the Browns fans and front office.
