This is not realistic. It's something you do on Madden.

 

Cmon guys is this what we doing on a Thursday night?

I mean it sort of happened back in 2017 when the Texans traded Brock Osweiler and 2nd round pick to the Browns just to get that contract off the books.  

I don’t think the Browns are stupid enough to give up even one 1st round pick to get rid of Watson but that’d be the only way for them. 

I guess the conversation really is more because of the fact that it is not impossible due to it happening before.

Let me think about this overnight and I'll give you my answer in the morning. Please inform the press and other media I will be making my decision LIVE here tomorrow at 10am eastern time. I will give you my response but I will not be taking any questions. I repeat not taking ANY questions.  

 

Thank you.

 

Good Morning. 

 

First thanks to all the fans and all of the media that have gathered around today. Let me get right to it. After talking to my family and a lot of praying. We have decided this is stupid. Aint no way that SOB will be playing in Charlotte unless Cleveland is in town. 

 

This concludes my press conference. 

 

Have a good day and keep pounding a drum if you have one.

I can't believe any media are proposing this. Do they not understand the basics of the salary cap math?

It's just space filling content

Its a legit scenario of how the browns can get out from under his contract.  One article I read detailed how a team like the panthers could make it work. It would suck in the short term (2 years) but the amount of capital you could acquire is massive especially if we were to trade back from #1 this year.

 

No how likely a scenario like that is, well thats a totally different question but all that is being talked about here is how the browns could move on and yeah I would be down to look into it

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
