Carolina has been in on Watson longer than anyone. Paying a running back and then watching him never play, trading for Sam Darnold and extending him, and not moving on from Rhule when they had the chance are just some of the terrible decisions that organization has made to stay mediocre. The NFC South always has the potential to be a very dangerous division.
The Cleveland Browns are expected to trade for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported Friday.
Rapoport reported that the Falcons will turn their attention to longtime starter and former AP NFL Most Valuable Player Matt Ryan to make him feel wanted as he considers his options. Jameis Winston opened the season as the starter under center but a torn ACL ended his year early, forcing Payton to shuffle between Taysom Hill, Trevor Siemian and Ian Book in New Orleans' first season in 16 years without future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees. A potential Winston-Saints reunion now is something to monitor in New Orleans. The Panthers, who have been involved in Watson trade discussions for more than a year, will now move forward with a QB room that features Sam Darnold and P. J. Walker.
Wow, has it been a crazy week, who knew a week ago that we would be in the middle of a two-team race for one of the best quarterbacks the NFL has to offer, ...
The Falcons have pushed back Matt Ryan’s roster bonus until Monday, which would make sense in regards to Watson having already made his decision.

Here's how we grade the Deshaun Watson blockbuster between Houston and Cleveland.
Having so many firsts also gives them the flexibility to move freely around the draft board if they identify a replacement for Watson in the future if 2021 third-rounder Davis Mills proves not to be the answer under center. For a franchise as starved for a Lombardi as the Browns are, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to see them push all their chips in the middle for this generational on-field talent. While the Los Angeles Rams and their mint Lombardi Trophy are proof that draft picks can successfully be thrown to the wayside in pursuit of a title, mortgaging the future for nearly a half-decade of first-round picks will require success quickly.
Friday's big news is Deshaun Watson is being traded to the Cleveland Browns for three first round picks, along with other compensation from the Browns, and in ...
Now it is time to wait to see what happens next, but for Deshaun Watson he’s made history with his new team before even taking the field. This is a win for the Texans because of all the draft capital they are being reported to be receiving will change the path of the franchise moving forward. The reigning AFC Champions are already in the North, being the Cincinnati Bengals as they have Joe Burrow as their starting quarterback, and the Baltimore Ravens have Lamar Jackson under center as their top quarterback.

Each game that Watson misses from a potential suspension would cost him $55,556, a source told SI‘s Albert Breer, instead of the much more significant number if his contract was laid out in a more traditional way. A full timeline of the allegations against Watson and how the legal situation has played out over the last year is available here. Although James was outwardly excited that the Browns acquired Watson, the trade for the 26-year-old quarterback was met with widespread backlash on Friday. Although he will not face criminal charges, Watson still faces 22 active civil lawsuits that allege sexual harassment and assault.
The former quarterback of the Houston Texans missed last season as he faced a criminal investigation and lawsuits involving sexual misconduct.
He is not part of the Browns’ trade package but is expected to be moved to another team. Watson also sought to have his compensation guaranteed by his new team, but the Browns went a step further, giving Watson a new and fully guaranteed five-year, $230 million contract, a person with direct knowledge of the terms of the deal confirmed. League investigators were waiting for a resolution in the criminal cases to interview Watson but have already spoken to several of the women who filed complaints against him.
It was previously reported that the Texans quarterback would head to the Saints or Falcons after Cleveland was told it wasn't in the running.
Watson’s attorney, Rusty Hardin, said in a statement after the announcement was made, “Now that the criminal investigations have been completed, we are happy to move forward with the civil case depositions. On Tuesday, Rapoport reported that New Orleans “stood out” to the quarterback. It was believed that Watson would end up with the Falcons or the Saints after both the Panthers and Browns were reportedly told they were no longer in the running. Atlanta emerged as a “sleeper team” in Watson talks Tuesday. Per ESPN’s Dianna Russini, the quarterback personally reached out to Atlanta, showing interest in the franchise. ESPN's Chris Mortensen later reported that the team was seeking to have “an adult” at quarterback, which seemed to be a predecessor to an eventual split. Per Breer, the Browns receive Watson and a fifth-round NFL draft pick in the deal.

Two teams rumored to have been interested in Mayfield are the Seattle Seahawks, after having dealt Russell Wilson away, and the Indianapolis Colts, who shipped Carson Wentz away. Cleveland will also work on a deal to trade Mayfield now too, although the team figures to get peanuts in return for him, comparatively speaking. Per Rapoport, the Browns are giving Watson a fully guaranteed 5-year contract worth $230 million.

Watson se había acogido a la quinta enmienda y su derecho contra la autoincriminación al estar sentado para dos sesiones de declaraciones que comenzaron el viernes. Pero un gran jurado de Texas se negó a acusar a Watson de cargos criminales el viernes pasado, indicando el final del proceso penal relacionado a él en el Condado de Harris y dando arranque a las conversaciones de traspaso entre los Texans y equipos interesados. Una movida de Watson a los Browns también abriría la posibilidad de que el mariscal Baker Mayfield encuentre un nuevo equipo.

Deshaun Watson has finally been traded. He's headed to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' division rival Atlanta Falcons. Here's how the move affects the Buccaneers.
As we said before though, the NFC is still a two-team boat race, and fortunately Tom Brady is captain Buccaneer. Now that’s the entire NFC. As it pertains to the South, the division may get a little juicer. The key part there is “regular season”. In 2020, once the playoffs rolled around, Brady did what Brady does and the Bucs beat the Saints in the Superdome, ending their Super Bowl hopes and the career of Drew Brees. In 2021, the Saints swept the Buccaneers again, but only the Buccaneers made the playoffs. Watson steering clear of the division may have opened the door for Mayfield to come in, but door number two still had Brady behind it after all. The NFC is still essentially a two-team race. Then it came down to the other three teams in the division, with Watson then ruling out the Carolina Panthers. Once it came down to the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints, the Browns ultimately won out, and have their new franchise quarterback to replace Baker Mayfield.
For so long Cleveland had been a lovable loser of a franchise, but everyone involved sold their souls to acquire a quarterback still facing sexual assault ...
What it meant to have a team of homegrown boys come out and whip the Steelers. The Panthers didn’t care. The Falcons didn’t care. The Saints didn’t care. The truth is that the Browns didn’t care. If you’re a laughingstock loser for long enough, you start thinking like the teams that have long bullied you around.
Deshaun Watson changed his mind. The Browns have their franchise quarterback, one with some extra heavy baggage.
He struggled last season after injuring his left shoulder in Week 2, but has shown he’s capable of being a quality starter after leading the Browns to the playoffs in 2020. The Browns’ public pursuit of Watson angered incumbent starter Baker Mayfield, who requested a trade. The team will undoubtedly feel some heat and deal with tough questions about why they’re bringing on Watson despite his off-field issues. He became a target of the Browns after the grand jury declined to indict him on sexual misconduct claims made by 22 women. Watson is still dealing with civil lawsuits from the women, massage therapists who accused him of assault and harassment. “Our priority right now is adding talented players to the foundation we have already put in place over the last 15 months and this trade supports that plan.”

HOUSTON -- After trading quarterback Deshaun Watson to the Cleveland Browns, Texans general manager Nick Caserio says he feels both parties now have "clarity" moving forward. "Deshaun has clarity on his end, relative to what his future holds from a ...
"He'll probably do good things for the city of Cleveland," Caserio said. He'll do a lot of great things for the city. But I think he's excited about the chances that he has in front of him, and we'll see how it all unfolds." But just clarity for him individually [and] I think clarity for our organization in terms of what the expectation is moving forward." The Browns are set to give Watson a new five-year, $230 million contract, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The full $230 million is guaranteed, sources said, setting a record for the largest guarantee given to an NFL player. Watson did not play last season after a January 2021 request to be traded and the emergence of 22 lawsuits against him alleging sexual assault and inappropriate conduct during massage sessions.
