Then, the lack of top tier draft picks will hamper the team.  Then, the cap issues will start and not allow the team to maneuver, even in free agency.  Before you know it, 5 seasons have gone by and they aren't in any better shape than they have been.

The Browns might be betting on a big inflation of the CAP as why they could let Watson take all he wanted from the CAP cash.
Sunday Ticket is up for bid right now and some galaxy sized pockets are allegedly bidding, Amazon and Apple.
With $248 million tied up in guarantees to two QB’s, the Browns will be a media darling for bungling franchise if they don’t excel over the next 2-3 years.
