Earlier this offseason there seemed to be some doubt that Baker Mayfield would return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Right before free agency was set to open, rumors started popping up that suggested Baker might leave to sign with the Patriots, Vikings, or even the Falcons.

It was unclear what they were hoping would transpire. Was their goal to lose him for nothing and watch him prosper elsewhere? Were they dreaming he'd sneak through under the radar so they could ... once again not play him at the big-league level? The possibilities were endless, as well as dull.
