STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Watson's fully guaranteed $40.6M deal sparked QB market inflation despite 16th-ranked passing yards.

Watson's $40.6M cap hit is cited as the catalyst for the QB overpayment crisis; his fully guaranteed contract set the market for all subsequent QB deals. Despite the massive investment, the Browns are 5-3 'no thanks to Watson,' who ranks 16th in passing yards, indicating he is not justifying his elite-tier salary.
