It will hinder them in the future but we have yet to see it and if I had to venture a guess it won't be a debilitating impact. For as massive as a contract and as massive as a miss as it was to potentially not have that big of an impact shows that it's not that big a risk to push the chips in. If the Browns take a QB with they're 1st pick and he works out as far as they give him the 2nd contract you probably never really feel the financial impact of the Watson deal. 

Browns option is to reach with #2 pick (neither QB is ranked in top 10 and do not make most picks with no risk lists either) and pass up one of the best 2 picks in the draft due to a bad contract with Watson.

Again, if this were the Bengals you would applaud them for going on a limb, a limb already badly dammaged and ready to break.

If does no good to spend money and not get a great return. In FA, it is common teams overpay and never get the return they were hoping. There is no guarantee Fries will live up to his contract for example.
