And the other price/tab....



It's going to come around sooner or later...

1. I guess Watson had more value that Wilson.
2. We shoulda got more than that for Rodgers!

Watson gets 230 million FULLY GUARANTEED.

Watson gets a quarter of a billion after being accused by 22 different women in a civil suit that is still ongoing. You would have to think all these teams knew he wouldn't get a suspension from Goodell.

Calvin Ridley loses 10 million for legally betting 0.005% of his salary on a football game while he was on leave from the NFL.

Every dollar of Deshaun Watson’s new five-year, $230 million deal is guaranteed, per sources, setting a new record for the highest guarantee given to an NFL player. and Watson’s agent combine to make history.

I forgot to add that if the 'Aints are crying, the Falcons must be bawling.
They were prepared to jettison Ryan to get Watson, and they still may trade him, but they have nobody to replace him.

It's a really odd angle in all of this. I don't recall such a scenario happening previously. How many qbs were alienated in the pursuit of Watson? Can't blame anyone for joining the sweepstakes, but guys like Mayfield were put in a really shitty position. Same for Ryan had ATL closed the deal. I know it's a business, but Mayfield was invested and a big part of what they put together regardless of their disappointing 2021 season. Is Deshaun Watson a sure thing in cold, dank, windy Cleveland?
