    If you’ve been here long enough, you realize Browns fans will accept anything if the player is on the team and performing.

    I believe that go's for most if not all sports teams fans

  • Any QB needy team would have welcomed a player of Deshaun’s caliber. I don’t think there has ever been a greater need for an elite QB. Browns need a super bowl: Watson has the ability.

    He is also a great fit for Cleveland football. Big arm, accurate, mobile, tough.

    Keep the O-line healthy/add O-Line depth, feed the Chubb and Hunt.. and dominate.

  • In America, innocent until proven guilty.  Who's playing center?

    Agree 100 percent, kinda sad though.

    There is a real possibility watson doesn’t play a down this season. He has a load of civil suits still pending. It drives that first up even higher. Luckily you all have case Keenum who should have played more last year. Watson is a stud but that trade is wiiiiiiillllld and it’s wildness is being ignored. 230m fully guaranteed, three firsts and additional undisclosed draft picks.

    we’re either going to keep watching the sport in spite of what all these idiots keep doing or not. If not, so be it. I understand. Im going to keep watching for now. 

  • Business decisions in the NFL>Than moral decisions and personal opinions of fans and media.

    With that, i will wait and see what Watson does on the field.

    If he wins here..it all goes away, and if you say "but,but" just look at the history of violence,charges,etc in the NFL.

  • Zone runs and Watson on bootlegs.  Unstoppable.

    Can’t argue with that.

    I can’t wait to see the quality of the Green Bay defense after giving Rogers that fat contract.

    Unless something drastically happens with the salary cap, I expect that defense will be made up of cast offs and practice squad players.

    You are going to find out how well the Browns can or can't draft in a hurry. It was a brain dead contract. Draft picks are justified.

    Brain dead? Yeah- if some Browns fans don't want to think the ONLY reason Watson changed his mind was because of the $$$, you're right- they're brain dead.  

    Aw gee, guess the Browns are bad guys for resetting the compensation level of quarterbacks in the NFL arms race?  38 year old Aaron Rodgers has $150 million guaranteed over three years. Five years ago, Joe Q Fan thought it was nuts when the Vikings gave Kirk Cousins (when by today's standards) a piddly $80 million fully guaranteed.  Some eyebrows got raised when the Chiefs made news giving Mahomes 10 years and $450 million. So by those yardsticks, Five years $230 million isn't quite as outrageous as it sounds.  

    Yeah, the guy's low on the moral meter, but as was previously posted- there's tons of current and former NFL players who were worse. Should Watson lives up to his past performance level, and stay out of any further trouble.. He's going to be worth the price paid.. for your perusal VAg...

    PS- you remove Watson's baggage, and I count 14 NFL teams who would be thrilled to have him, and there were at least several other teams besides the Browns who wanted him with his baggage.   🙂 

  • Just to piss off nickers and cantondawg.

  • Maybe it's just me but surely we could have found an untainted QB with those 3 1st rounders in trade value. It's called move up for the best QB. Maybe not this year for I just don't see one that is a sure fire SB level QB. But surely within the next couple of years while we stack the rest of the chips onto the team to give him the best chance to succeed.

    Too much baggage added to that makes it untenable. Throw in a key injury to said Mr. Watson and the Browns are once again head clowns of the donkey league.

  • Eh.  He's the QB now.  I support him.  Go Browns!

    Loosely... He has a lot to prove to me before I can buy in...

    The problem is all that money is fully guaranteed. You are also 100% correct on if the baggage is gone. However if the baggage were gone he may be a steeler. It's where he wanted to be based on several reports. I'm glad he's not at that cost.

    I don't care about the costs (not my money and he only gets 1 million next year)..I'm glad we didn't have to give up any players.

    Yup...shoot add the Patriots and Colts owner. Some of these people voted for Trump or Clinton and supported some Supreme Court Justices who were accused-the people we are supposed to look up to.  There is something to be said that a Grand Jury did not indict....it's a super low bar
