Possibly the worst trade of all time. The amount of money and  assets traded for him was insane and he did absolutely nothing for denver. 

Maybe the 2nd worst? :)

I bet he won’t be riding public transportation. 

 

That is one heck of a cap sting, I’m sure.

He got them a new HC in Sean Payton...

Isn't his cap hit like 30 million or something for like 3 years? 

 

Edit - 85 million dead cap hit 😳

Brutal. Glad it happened to an AFC team tho. Denver will have to designate it a post 6/1 cut to make it work. They’ll have dead cap hits of $35.4M this season and $49.6M in 2025. OUCH!

Definitely in the top two, depending on how Watson works out.

How bad do you have to be that a team would rather eat 85 mil in dead space over two years than let you play quarterback?  Add to that, they don't even have a replacement yet and still would rather take their chances

Damn I completely forgot about Watson. Horrible trades and contracts.

so, does anyone have the specifics of how much of a jerk or whatever he was?

They said he acted like he was running for political office and not trying to be the leader of a team. I don't think he's a jerk I just don't think he fit in with the locker room culture

Watson trade is worse imo. The sad thing for Cleveland I'dthat they are a legit starting QB away from being SB contenders. 

 

Denver must be looking to draft Penix or maybe move up for Mye/Daniels.

Largest dead cap hits in NFL history:
Russell Wilson ($85M)
Matt Ryan ($40.53M)
Aaron Rodgers ($40.31M)
Carson Wentz ($33.8M)
Russell Wilson, again ($26M)

That cap hit is brutal.  For that much, I'm shocked they wouldn't just keep him this season while breaking in a new/future QB.  Instead, they just went full scorched Earth on him.
