It appears a favorite has emerged to acquire Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield. According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, the Panthers have the “inside track” to land the former No. 1 overall pick.

This report lines up with what NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said on The Pat McAfee Show this Friday.

“To me, the Carolina Panthers seem to be the most likely spot for Baker Mayfield, or maybe a team brings him in as a high-money backup, like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — that would make some sense to me,” Rapoport said.
