Still, this is about as low-risk as it gets for a pick 130 quarterback: a proven top-12 quarterback ceiling with the fallback plan of a quality streaming and platoon piece if health becomes a question again.
STACKED’s take
Mayfield at pick 130 offers top-12 ceiling with minimal downside if healthy.
Mayfield was playing at a top-12 quarterback pace before a shoulder injury wrecked his 2025 season, posting 23.5 fantasy points a game through the first six weeks even with some of his top playmakers missing time. He's produced 26 or more touchdown passes in five seasons. His 2024 season was a career year with 41 touchdowns and 4,500 yards, and the incoming offensive staff runs a similar scheme to the one that produced it. The 2025 shoulder injury explains the collapse, and Mayfield has a bad habit of playing through pain even when he shouldn't. At pick 130, this is about as low-risk as it gets for a quarterback: a proven top-12 quarterback ceiling with the fallback plan of a quality streaming and platoon piece if health becomes a question again.
