@JohnThornton of @RocNationSports confirmed the deal to ESPN.Herbert was inevitable.  Burrow & Jackson next.  We had cause for concern last Spring when we paid WatsonâŚand we ate a sh!tburger last year with the suspension.  Now heâs back and it is the Chargers turn to pay a QB, Cincy and Baltimore is next.  And then the âtoughâ calls on the supporting cast will come.  Three teams will likely fight it out with for playoff spotsÂ
ÂNow Andrew Thomas has played okay.  That contract though  is too rich for my blood and I know RBs donât get paid or appreciated - Saquon isnât the most healthy guy either but their average QB and Average LT get paid- and they slip him a one year deal and not even at the top of running back ladder.  Ouch.Â

 Good on Andrew Thomas. He holds a special place for me because he was the last 1st round OL that myself and Tour were lock-step in agreement on. Â
 Dude had a very rough rookie season, but he has grown into a top 10 LT, maybe even higher depending on how you view career length and injury as a factor.Â
 Nice to see attention paid to the big men in the trenches.Â

Lamar already signed a new deal some time ago, much higher than Watson, though less guaranteed. Burrow should get the highest in the league before the season starts. Next (off-)season Lawrence is next.
As it stands, Watson is only the seventh highest paid QB, with guys who have showed decline like Wilson and Rodger ahead of him. While people were screening bloody murder when he was signed, that's just fair market value. He is 3rd all-time in career QBR. If he plays anything like that the next couple of seasons, I would rephrase to: bargain.Â

If he doesn't bring us a SB its a complete failure to me.. Period!

@nickers and @texasag1969 I am hopeful about Watson's play, yes. Calling him a bust if he does not win the Browns our first SB is just plain idiotic regardless. Not being capable of counting to 10 kind of idiotic. Â

Isn't every season Super Bowl or bust?

If they ever did a "where are they now" story about Linus and Sally in the Pumpkin Patch - I'll bet they ended up with more kids from those visits on Halloween than the family on Walton's Mountain ever had. Â
Anyway, they gave up a lot to get Watson so I'll guarantee you're not the only one that feels this way. I wanted us to draft the guy when all we would have had to do was use the 1st overall pick we earned from 1-15 football (with a contract that would have been restricted to the rookie salary cap). At the time, we wouldn't have to worry how long he needed to be suspended for - and how long the rust factor would take before seeing the same guy that led Houston to the playoffs in his 1st 2 of 3 years suiting up there. I just think the Browns Owner and FO made it all way tougher than it ever needed to be in bringing Watson here. All of that said, he's here and this offseason sure unfolded far better than most of us thought it would.
I don't have a problem with your point. We've had some board members pass away in recent years while we were in "Cleveland Browns fans just need to be more patient mode."  When reasonable people have to endure the unreasonable circumstances this fanbase has to endure for decades - there comes a time when "now or never" seems pretty reasonable. I'm gonna agree we need to make it happen damn soon; but I'll chicken shit it to while Watson is here hoping it's this year. Â

I got the impression "it's a bust" is different than "he's a bust" in this conversation. He's attacking the "all or none" plan in this debate. If he wanted to attack the QB he would have typed "Watson is a bust" in this. We've even had an NFL MVP at QB not even able to lead us to the Super Bowl, let alone win it. Â
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
