Well, Im glad its over but now I am a bit disappointed.

I was gearing up to hate the Falcons..... now at the last minute I gotta turn to the Browns.

TK said you cannot trade Watson until ATL resolved cap space; why wouldn't that apply to Browns? Even trading Mayfield's $19 m will do it. Any mention of this?

Browns had the cap space to absorb his current contract.

That would be the sane thing to do. Especially what he did to this team fresh off signing his mega contract.

They are saying Watson personally called CLE to tell them they were out yesterday. But Mullgehtta continued talking to CLE all night and hammered out the fully guaranteed contract and Watson agreed today.

Those picks aren‘t going to make up for the loss of a top five qb. How we got here is just so absurd.

A top 5 QB who wasn't playing here anyway, even if he wasn't traded.

I do agree that how we got here was indeed absurd.

Not the greatest return. I say keep him and bench him.

Ian Rapoport on Twitter: "Sources: The #Browns and #Texans are in agreement on a trade for Deshaun Watson. It’s three first-round picks, a third-rounder and late-round pick swap, a fourth for a fifth. It’s done. He’s a member of the #Browns." / Twitter

I was expecting better, holding my tongue until final but based on above Nick got fleeced.

Man, I'm glad it's all over - he is someone elses problem now so any further litigation, etc., will not effect us in the slightest.

It is what it is. BOB and Co gave him all the leverage. REALLY could have been worse.

But still not great.

It’s actually still very good as HOU will have 3 1’s for 3 years straight. Those can be parlayed into all kinds of massive picks for years to come.

They are now saying he’s still getting suspended by the NFL.
 
No Baker or Denzel Ward. No players from a team stacked with young talent. Terrible return, but they didn't have an option with the no-trade clause

If you count their own picks that is 6 first round picks 3 years straight.
 
Good riddance I am glad he is gone the odds are with his arrogance getting off this time that he won't change.

I keep hearing he is a top 5 QB, but top 5 QB's don't have 2 scoreless halves and one with only 3 points in 3 playoff games.

The other teams were balking at his agents demand for a $230 MIL fully guaranteed contract too.
CLE finally agreed early this morning.

So yapping about not getting players back was a fairy tale as they could not force ATL to give him the money, even though they were offering up a player or 2.

Yeah. It’s about the money.
