Watson being traded to the Browns; 5yr/230mil

[STAN JONES]

NFL so corrupt

so they quietly removed his protection clauses and all of a sudden another lawsuit pops up after 1 game

and sadly his agent is 100% in on this too

no way any agent who has his clients best interest would agree to removing his protection clauses

Browns literally had no leverage to even ask for some shyt like that

I bet Deshaun didn’t even know either

Even if that’s the case, I’m sure the Browns at this point would rather have Baker at his current deal than Watson on a fully guaranteed one.

The man has lost all benefit of a doubt and rightfully so. He’s not the hill for you to die on defending especially considering he has yet to show any humility for what transpired.

I mean nobody forced them to take Watson. They chose this timeline.

If they cut him his dead cap hit next year is 172 million dollars!

In Cap Hell. They’re soooooo fukked

That's not my point though and that's never been in dispute.

My point was that some posters in here are coming up with every reason to give Watson the benefit of a doubt that he can right the ship, when we've seen nothing during his Brown's tenure thus far that would inspire optimism.

I think they have given up on him ever being a star again and just want average but he can’t even be that

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

The Browns OL isn't doing him any favors, but it's beyond obvious at this point that his previous skillset just isn't there anymore to help compensate for it.

He wasn't very good in the 1st place. He wasn't good enough to warrant the contract Houston gave him. Then he became "Mr Nasty F.A.N", and someone decided he was goon enough to give him over $200 million guaranteed. His agent is a certified HOF'er though.

Unbold that first sentence and you're totally correct.

U can’t name 5 QBs who were better than him going into 2021
