He didn't want to go to the Browns, thus they came in and fully guaranteed that deal. It's the only way he would go there. They were desperate in a sense.
Now, I agree with you in the sense that teams SHOULDN'T have wanted to sign him because of the off-the-field stuff.
Right, a number of teams were ready to overpay for Watson, the Browns just went extra overboard.
The Browns are stupid enough as it is without us pretending they used three 1st round picks and gave a quarter of a billion guaranteed bucks to get a guy no one else was interested in.
