He had huge red flags in terms of character, has been a compete bust and is making Jamarcus Russell’s deal look like a bargain.

Cleveland could have been a SB contender with a decent QB and instead they gave their fans this epic disaster.

If this isn’t the worst contract of all time, what signings are worse?

    Yep seems like a safe bet, and let’s not forget the haul of picks they gave up for the honor of giving a rapist that contract.

    Idk how the city of Cleveland hasn’t booted this shit franchise out yet. What an embarrassment.

    I think it’s borderline impossible to argue that there’s a contract worse than it, in league history, through the first two years.

    Because of the guarantees, he’ll see out the contract and potentially have a chance to make it better, but through two years - yeah it’s by far the worst.

    Nope. r/NFL loves to hate on Watson and will post every day about him to get free internet points. You are all so dramatic. You can’t predict injury. It’s just unlucky. His play was starting to get back to normal. He’s had valid excuses for some of his bad play. Rust is a real fucking excuse. While it’s super frustrating, it’s not the end of the world. Our window is still open, he’s shown he can play at a high level still. He’s shown he can last game winning drives (something Baker never could do).

    Berry is also very good at managing the cap space. We have 33mil in cap this year that’s gonna roll over.

    And the 2nd worse isn’t even in the ballpark. Haynesworth, D Jones, Wilson, Jamarcus etc don’t even compare.
