The 2022 NFL Draft is right around the corner and teams across the league are making their final scouting reports. There has been a ton of trade rumors recently and nobody is sure what is going to happen come Thursday. One name to keep an eye on is Baker Mayfield, as he's been seeking a trade since the Cleveland Browns acquired Deshaun Watson. The Carolina Panthers make their stance clear about potentially bringing in Mayfield ahead of the draft.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Panthers are not looking to trade for Baker Mayfield before the start of the NFL Draft. It sounds like Carolina would like to weigh their options, as they have the sixth overall pick in the first round. It's not clear what this team is going to do on Thursday, but Carolina still needs a competent starting quarterback.

Perhaps the front office drafts a quarterback in the first round. Or, maybe the Browns find a way to deal Baker Mayfield away during the draft. We'll see how it plays out, but it sounds like Mayfield is going to stay in Cleveland for at least one more week. Carolina would be a great landing spot for the veteran quarterback, as he'd likely help them win more games than any rookie available in the NFL Draft.

The Seattle Seahawks are another rumored franchise potentially interested in trading for Baker Mayfield, but they haven't jumped on any decisions just yet. It'll be interesting to see where Mayfield ends up, as he'll be given another opportunity to lead a franchise. Keep an eye on the Panthers, as they have one of the more intriguing situations in the NFL right now.
