Assuming he didn't do something to void his contract, I'll be pissed if they get cap relief because of some insurance policy.  They made their bed.

So the question at hand is which party or parties do you want to see suffer? $92M is left on the table. If Watson is found to have voided his contract he loses that $92M and the Browns and insurer are off the hook for it. If he isn’t found to have voided his deal, then he gets that money from the Browns and insurer. Probably $47.7M from the Browns and $44.3M from the insurer. So who do you dislike more?

So that officially ends Watson's career in Cleveland.

He was a legit borderline top 5 qb. But I don’t get why you make that trade with all that baggage, give up that many picks, and then give him all that money? Even if he was awesome, if I was a Browns fan, it would be hard for me to cheer for a guy who I think is a pervert. 
 

now, he’s just a crappy, overpaid, injury prone pervert. The Browns had a nice roster too.

Not only have they blown the whole Watson thing, but they also continue to sign big contracts (with aging players) that

pushes all kinds of dead cap out.  It's insane.  

 

If anyone want to see what I mean, look at the orange and red players whose contracts are up next year but have these huge dead cap hits.

Also, look at some of the ages of these players!

The other three teams involved in the DeShaun Watson sweepstakes obviously are breathing sighs of relief.  I didn't anticipate his play dropping off that drastically so I kind of got why the Browns did it given how desperate they were for a franchise QB.  A high risk high reward type move.  Obviously, it backfired spectacularly.

I think blowing Watson was the original issue ironically

While Baker has had a rebirth of sorts in Tampa. You love to see it. :lol:
