The Browns making efforts to get Watson makes me think that Baker is headed out the door, regardless.  Either the Browns get Watson and trade Baker soon, or Baker plays out his lame duck year and either tells the Browns to "make it better" by giving him $40+ million a year or he becomes a FA and tries to cash in elsewhere. So the Browns seem guaranteed to be sans Baker by 2023 at the latest OR they have to give him a franchise-killing contract.

If the Browns continue to blow things, Watson will sign in NO or Carolina and they'll have alienated Baker for nothing and Baker will go to another team and become the next Drew Brees.  That'd be the Brownsiest thing ever...well, not really since no QB has left Cleveland to do anything of note, but you get the idea.
