Mayfield's QB17 finish driven by injuries and receiver losses; top-12 upside if healthy.

Mayfield cratered from a QB4 breakout in 2024 to the QB17 in 2025, but the collapse came with a clear, fixable cause: a battered throwing arm, a sprained knee, a bicep strain, and a shredded receiver room. Health is the whole story. Assuming a cleaner 2026, he still has a deep cupboard of pass-catchers and a rushing contribution that has topped 378 yards in each of the last two seasons to prop up his floor. He profiles as a top-12 quarterback you can draft as a mid-range QB2, which is exactly the shape of a buy-low.
