Deshaun Watson TRADED to the Browns

[bikerack]

Panthers, Seahawks....and Saints are the current leaders in the clubhouse.

Here are the current draft assets for each team...

Panthers:
2022 1st (6th overall)
(2) 2022 5th rounders (from JAX and their own)
2022 6th (from LV)
2022 7th (from TEN)
2023 - they have all their picks except for their 6th and they get an extra 7th
2024 - they have all their picks

Summary - they can trade their next 3 1st rounders if they want to, but can't add much more in 2022.

Seahawks
2022 1st (9th overall from DEN)
(2) 2022 2nd rounders (from DEN and their own)
2022 3rd
2022 4th (from NYJ)
(2) 2022 5th rounders (from DEN and their own)
2022 7th
2023 - they have all their picks plus DEN's 1st and 2nd rounders and PIT's 5th
2024 - they have all their picks

Summary - draft capital-wise, the Seahawks can offer the most. Over the next 2 years, they could offer (3) 1sts and (3) 2nds if they wanted to.

Saints
2022 1st (18th overall)
2022 2nd
2022 3rd* (projected comp pick)
2022 4th
2022 5th
2022 6th* (projected comp pick)
2022 7th
2023 - they have all their picks except for their 6th rounder
2024 - they have all their picks except for their 6th rounder

Summary - they can offer a lot of picks over the next 3 years, but they would probably not be as high as Seattle's, especially short-term.

Thanks. It all looks good to me. I really can't wait for the day for this franchise to turn the page on this saga.

It still completely blows my mind that the team dicks around for 20 years, finally gets a top-5 quarterback, this is top-5 in a league with the greatest ever and several other Go Straight to Canton types, then, through brutal neckdickery they manage to alienate him to the point where he simply refuses to play for the team anymore. I think that given the rarity of guys who can play qb at a high level in the NFL this whole thing has been under appreciated by most everyone.

So the Texans are going to get three firsts. Outstanding. Say hello to Travis Johnson, Amobi Okoye and Kevin Johnson.

Who's underappreciating it? The Texans are a joke inside and outside Houston. Who doesn't know they're more screwed up than any team in pro sports?

Since Watson is reportedly meeting with the Cleveland brass today, here is the Browns draft capital over the next 3 years...

Browns
2022 1st (13th overall)
2022 2nd
(2) 2022 3rds* (including projected comp pick)
(2) 2022 4ths (from DET and their own)
2022 6th (from DAL)
2022 7th (from DET)
2023 - they have all their picks
2024 - they have all their picks

Summary - slightly better than the picks the Saints can offer.

And now the Falcons have entered the group chat.
