Please tell me that comes with a conduct unbecoming clause that applies to his pending suits... But... It's Cleveland... So maybe not?

So he gets a $12M a year bonus, for 4 years, then gets a bonus 5th year at the same price point. All guaranteed.

Cleveland... So desperate.

Imagine having never played a single snap of your crazy high dollar contract extension, facing 2 dozen sexual assault accusations, and then still demanding more money...

Surprise, surprise!  Wonder how the Falcons are going to make up with Matt Ryan now? Who can they trade him for at this point?

You don't have to trade him FOR someone. Just have to trade him period. Then either draft someone or sign a filler (Minshew, Winston, etc) for a year.

Much like the the Seahawks trading two firsts for Jamal Adams and then making him the highest paid safety in history, there will be ZERO hindsight required for the Browns/Watson trade and contract.

More than likely Baker will go to a NFC team like Seattle, NO, or Carolina. But I think that just makes Jimmy G a prime trade target for an AFC team like the Colts.

I guess Baker is available now.

Every round is very similar except for the 2nd round.

The Cowboys got THREE 2nd round picks from the Vikings.

The Texans got NONE from the Browns.

That's a pretty big difference, IMO.

Cheer up.  It could be worse.  Your team could have traded away 3 first round picks, 1 3rd round pick, and a 5th round pick for the right to give a fully guaranteed 5 year $230M contract to a player that is currently facing 20+ accusations of sexual assault.

I'm not looking forward to that, but JuJu's skill set is pretty much a perfect fit for what the KC offense lacked last season. It also means there's finally a meaningful WR behind Hill on the depth chart.

The last time JuJu played in an offense where there was another WR taking the heat off him and his QB had an arm, the results were pretty good.

He's a bargain at $10.75M, too.

Three 1sts, at least two other picks, gave him a $48M raise, another year, all guaranteed, and then arranged it so even if he is suspended for an entire year, he will only lose the league minimum salary (he's not even a vested veteran)... All to get a player with two dozen sexual assault accusations because he is more "adult" than Baker?

It's almost like the Browns pulled an Adam Schefter and just let Watson's agent write the contract and then they signed w/o even reading it.

This is the most Falcons thing ever.  Where does this episode rank in the Falcons Fails Hall of Fame?

1. 28-3
2. Eugene Robinson getting arrested with a prostitute the night before the Super Bowl.
3. Mike Vick dog fights
4. Petrino quitting mid-season without telling the team
5. Going from Julio (demands trade), Ridley (quits, then suspended for gambling), and Gage as your receives to literally nobody in less than a year.
