Deshaun Watson has decided he wants to play for the Cleveland Browns in a stunning change of events, per sources. Watson has informed the Houston Texans that he now is willing to waive the no-trade clause in his contract to be dealt to Cleveland.

Here’s what happened with Deshaun Watson: #Falcons believed they had him. They really did. This morning however, #Browns made it clear to Deshaun Watson that they’d pay him what HE WAS WORTH as one of the premier players in the league — a true franchise cornerstone.
If he had gone to the Saints it would have hurt the Saints a little (draft, players) but it would have killed the Falcons (draft, players and MONEY for Ryan).. Isn't the asking price like 3 years of 1st rounds and multiple later rounds picks and players? [Reply]
This is the most lopsided trade since Dallas traded Herschel Walker, AND the worst contract I've ever heard of in the NFL. The Browns still won't win jack shit. [Reply]
I respect Watson's game and if the Browns keep Hunt and Chubb together they'll cause teams problems for sure. However we faced Watson with Hopkins, Fuller, Stills amd the run game was solid too. So it won't be nothing new really.
All this does is make the one seed more important and makes life way tougher for Burrow and Lamar which is nice. [Reply]
