Skeptical but it’s my last hope. Browns fans need to probably just stay off twitter for 24 hours. A whole lot of self-described 'capologists' are going to have fun saying this kills the franchise for a decade, but the first rule of the salary cap is that every dollar actually paid is what counts, and if Watson is found guilty, he's not getting paid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m far from a cap expert, but I’m glad they have an out for that. I thought they 100% guaranteed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and this is my last hope because I feel like the days ahead of he’s playing here will be stained and much less enjoyable (regardless the outcome). If losing 6 draft picks for no return is the result then good, it is at least the spank on the bottom the ownership and FO deserves here and nothing would make me happier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think there's anything you need to hope for. The only money he'd even have access to is the signing bonus, and if you listen to rookie interviews it doesn't sound like the signing bonus is 100% deposited the day you sign. Anything that's written to Watson is gone if he's guilty, since he'd have to settle other creditors/pay out lawsuits, but the idea that the Browns are going to pay Watson $230MM while he sits in jail is Steeler/Ravens/Bengals fanfiction. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler735 Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 This Watson signing certainly seems like it has the potential to turn the Browns back into the Browns for the next decade lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
