Holy poo. Imagine the agony of being a Browns fan.

I suspect it's like being a Panther fan only with snow and a big ass lake.

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.

I think the Texans and maybe the Browns/Broncos did this with Brock Osweiler

No way even for two firsts.  His cap number is 70 + mil for 25 and 26?  No way.  That deal is literally insane.

Wasn't this brought up the other day? 

[rayzor]

Would it be possible to do that trade without us getting Watson?

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.

We need to do something drastic to add talent to this side and ladies and gentlemen this is drastic I’m all for it 

[csx]

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

[Gapanthersfan]

No more big moves for offensive players, for now, please. We’re looking (hopefully) for someone fresh and moldable. No baggage. Immediately accepted by fans and players. What if dude decides to get himself in trouble again.

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.

There is no amount of compensation that would have me okay with Watson in process blue

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

Miami did this in the tank for Tua year but they never took on anything THAT big of a contract.
