Will Deshaun be on the Browns in 2027?
I root for Deshaun and hope he’ll be the franchise QB the Browns need. However, he has not lived up to his contract. A huge part is availability and he hasn’t been there. I can see issues when they try to resign him because he’ll want another fully guaranteed contract and no way the Browns do that unless he wins two Super Bowls between now and then.
Knowing how things work in Cleveland, I believe he won’t resign and they’ll be left searching for their next franchise QB. Thoughts?

If good -> yes
If bad -> no
I’m going to say no, but I’m saying no for a different reason than just the standard “well has he played better”. One of the things AB has been great at is moving on from guys at the right time, and looking not at whether they’ll be good this year, but at whether they still should be good for the life of the deal and whether that player matches what you want to do going forward.
I do not think Deshaun Watson’s particular skillset is the type that is going to age well, at all, and I suspect that with the amount of dead cap we have that year already, AB may well use it as the retooling year. Tag and trade Watson (that gets rid of his no trade clause) and if he’s good, you’ll recoup the picks necessary to fuel your next real run while not paying a player who IMO even if he figures it out, plays a style that will collapse rather fast when that “escapability” goes
Better question…. Will DeShaun be in Jail in 2027?
I hope not, I don’t want to feel like I shouldn’t watch games or I’d support a 22 time potential r word .
It just makes it worst that with all that bad will he’s been meh to worse
No!
Will we be alive in 2027?
Will he even be in the league in 2027?
Fuck no
No. He wouldn’t be here in 2024 if they had a choice.
