Baker Mayfield is not a one-size-fits-all kind of guy.
Heck, one day he’s hammering skinny margaritas and the next day it’s old school American beer.
Mayfield is diverse as a leader, too, as head coach Todd Bowles explained during his 1-on-1 chat with Josina Anderson at the NFL Scouting Combine last week.
“I think he handles them all differently depending on what they need and what they do, which is very bright on his part,” Bowles said of his franchise quarterback. Obviously, he’s been through some things in this league; he’s got some experience now. He can lead by putting his arm around you. He can lead by yelling at you. He can lead by example. He can lead by just sitting down at the cafeteria talking to you, so he has a lot of ways to lead and understands the guys very well. And he makes sure everybody’s ingratiated on the team and comes together the right way.”
Mayfield, his bargain salary and the Bucs’ high-octane offense are huge reasons Joe thinks the Bucs should be in win-now mode.
