4. Build around him

5. Good lord well let's go browns let's get that guy out of town. I think Kirk cousins will be a brown next year. I will take him for a year while we develop a 3rd or 4th round QB

6. Draft order. 1 best available no QB. 2nd Best LB. 3rd best QB (Jaxson Dart) Ole miss. 4th best RB.

7. Build around him get some offensive lineman

8. I think this is a sneaky good move because even if Deshaun doesn’t come back after next year we could still get a good QB in the 2026 draft

9. Bull!! I can’t believe this!! He’s not a good player, he sucks actually!! This is the worst thing they could do!! This was Haslam’s problem, not the team!! Haslam should pay him off and cut him!!

10. Nobody good to draft this year. Trade a team your first round this year for theirs next year. Next year you have two picks. You trade the first team picking next year one of your firsts and a second for their #1 pick. Then you take Arch Manning and still have a second first round pick and take a Running back. Then you have a new QB and a new RB next year, both first round picks.

11. Also sign the best kicker in the USFL or the CFL. They have produced good kickers in the past. Our kickers suck because we keep taking peoples rejects and you dont want to draft another kicker.

12. What they know and what you don’t know… I CAN TELL YOU THAT A ECONOMIC COLLAPSE IS COMING WITHIN THE NEXT 3-YEARS LAUGH IT UP AND LAUGH…
    THIS CONTRACT MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO CUT HISS A$$ POST JUNE NEXT YEAR AND WE WONT HAVE TO SEE THIS HIT UNTIL 2030 and by THEN WERE IN DEEP ECONOMIC COLLAPSE SO IT WONT MATTER

13. By the way, get your butt back to work Matt. Christmas is over.

14. If Winston was lightning it up, he would not have been benched. I agree it’s HIGHLY unlikely they bring him back.

15. I do not see the browns winning anything. Upto now Watson have been AWFUL, not a starting quarterback in the NFL. I can understand Myles Garrett being piss off, and probably ask to be traded, because the team really sucks. The owner should sell, he is a loser.

16. Get rid of that bum, if jimmy Haslam force Watson down our throats brown fans won't be showing up at the games.

17. Browns will be tanking for two years because they want that dome stadium in broke park thay don’t care about the city of Cleveland or what happens in Cleveland thay should just sell the team if it were up to me

18. Get rid of the rapist period please.

19. I’ve seen enough of Robinson. He go as well as the other 2. 1 st round how about a left guard or tackle. If the QB’s on not worthy of being picked that high.

20. How are you

21. Hi Matthew

22. Let's go buckeye s

23. Excellent explanation. 🙏

24. So in short you’re telling me we are still 3-12 with no hope for the future? Got it. Thanks

25. We might have a rich owner but he is like the Biden administration throwing money on pointless endeavors. Just my opinion. GO browns

26. Hopefully doing this that maybe in a year (unless the Browns do it again) Watson will be tired of this and buy out his contract and retire from the NFL since no way in hell a team will sign him after this, even as a 3rd stringer.

27. All words to me …… I just want Watson gone!

28. I’ve been waiting for a new video actually omg

29. That’s great hopefully they can push some of this massive contract back a few years. This franchise is going f around and let Vrabel walk and not offer him the HC job?? If we possibly get top 3 pick take best overall player on the board or trade back a few spots and build draft capital

30. Does any of this change how the actual cash money is paid Watson? Or is this just some sort of accounting device enabling them to amortize the actual cash expenditures of 2022-26? And if Watson has agreed to defer monetary pay-outs, what in it for him?

31. And with that mindset this why the browns continues to have qb problems.

32. Stop dealing with this bum and cut ties with him take your lost

33. Too bad they couldn’t stretch the payments over the next twenty years.

34. The comments from some people don’t make sense they don’t seem to get it .Watson is not going to just quit and leave all this money on the table are you crazy unless the owner does something like pay him off under the table which might not be legal at least in the NFL then we wouldn’t take a hit on the players cap and the other teams would probably file charges against the Browns.Berry made a horrible mistake in bringing Watson in there’s no good solution to this problem.

35. Best available each round
    Qb 2026

    There going nowhere for 5 years
    Will Berry be here – stefanski ?

    What a mess

36. Worst trade in team history. When is someone going to be held accountable for this train wreck?

37. Matt dont do that ….most fans know what a contract restructure is….also DW IS doing the Browns a favor by allowing that contract to be restructured for a more lengthy period. He understands where he may be in the next couple of years and its called financial stability. This is like other contracts out there. The Browns rill be paying him long after he's gone

38. Salary Cap goes up but so do player salaries. So…..
