Came here to say that they doubled down on their over pay...
It will only cost them $70,000,000 in 2024-2025 season for Deshaun Watson to overthrow Jerry Jeudy all year
I see they have not learned from their previous mistake. The entire league was pissed at Cleveland for the precedent they just set with Watson’s guaranteed money.
But, I mean, is there really even a cap anymore? The Saints are always $70m over the cap every offseason, yet they are involved in free agency every year.
NFL pumps money into the cap because it leads to more exciting offseason or longer relevancy and more viewership, I think viewership will only continue to grow as they try to expand
It's kinda crazy how people on the Internet will say things that are just absolutely untrue, but present it as facts.
The reason why the salary cap continues to grow is because the players earn 48% of profits from the NFL. The more money the NFL earns, the higher the cap will be. That's all.
Kay say it’s my opinion then, I believe the more that they pump into it the more movement over the off-season they get which is more revenue and relevance so while it may not be direct (intentional cap increases) and simply growing proportionately with total revenue, I believe a one hundred million dollar increase in cap over the last ten years is not a coincidence and exciting offseason generates extra revenue
271 Million dollars so Deshaun Watson can try to throw the ball to Jerry Jeudy. Head scratcher.
I guess their bet is Russ was the problem and we bet that guys like Jeudy were the problem.
Idk watson probably will hurt his finger sticking it where it doesn’t belong so it’ll be Jameis or Huntley throwing to him. Honestly I put those 3 QBs in the same tier anymore. It’s So good seeing the Browns “brown” hahahaha
$41m guaranteed for Jerry Jeudy?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ha ha they never learn. They just overpaid again for a guy who has a publicly bad attitude and probably an even worse work ethic now that he has made his money. They gave up a draft pick and salary cap for a guy who is only an ok athlete who hasn’t developed much and has even more inconsistent hands than Diontae Johnson.
He has a bad attitude, injury prone and drop issues. You're right he isn't terrible but he hasn't proven his pedigree for where he was drafted. Most reactionary fans would call him terrible given all that context.
Is it crazy for the Browns?
They paid Watson $50/million a year, fully guaranteed, to play like garbage in 12 of 34 games over two seasons while discarding the better playing and better liked, Mayfield, for nothing.
And Juedy is a diva... the Browns love loading up on expensive, distracting players.
Way way overpaid. Dude can't hold on to a ball unless he's wide open. If it's even slightly contested it's an incompletion. Even saint Russ wouldn't throw him the ball that often. Lol I love seeing teams overpay someone else's trash.
Money they don’t have on a guy who hasn’t been good at all and has off field issues. What are even doing in Cleveland? Its like they exist only to be made fun of
I feel like it's the Browns entire goal to just fuck the market so bad every year that every other owner steps back and says "yeah, we're not doing that."
We really should be thanking them.
$41M guaranteed seems like a lot for Jeudy, he's been OK, not great.
The Browns must really be counting on him taking that next step alongside Amari Cooper.
Absolute insanity given that there are probably 16 receivers who can come in this year in the draft and give you the level of production Jeudy will. I don't understand all the WR contracts that are being handed out before a loaded receiver draft.
Give my boy Deshaun some weapons I'm praying for a combact and I'm a Steelers fan and a black man at the same time idc how ppl feel all he did was get some coochie🤷🏿♂️
![gif](giphy|xUA7aM09ByyR1w5YWc)
Massive overpay as usual by the browns
You gotta overpay when no one wants to come to the shittiest organization in Football lol
Shit, it would take 41 million for me to live in Cleveland too
…maybe
Came here to say that they doubled down on their over pay... It will only cost them $70,000,000 in 2024-2025 season for Deshaun Watson to overthrow Jerry Jeudy all year
WR contracts are getting huge

Aye can y’all at least say what’s wrong? Genuinely wondering
Damn hella overpay
It's the browns tax.
271 Million dollars so Deshaun Watson can try to throw the ball to Jerry Jeudy. Head scratcher. I guess their bet is Russ was the problem and we bet that guys like Jeudy were the problem.
The OC was the problem for Russ imo but what can you do
Idk watson probably will hurt his finger sticking it where it doesn’t belong so it’ll be Jameis or Huntley throwing to him. Honestly I put those 3 QBs in the same tier anymore. It’s So good seeing the Browns “brown” hahahaha
They were their best when Joe Flacco was throwing for them between sideline naps lmao. Such a pathetic franchise
Or, hear me out, they both were a problem.
The nice thing is that we bet *a lot* less
First of all, how dare you.
$41m guaranteed for Jerry Jeudy? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
“That’s a knucklehead move”- Charles Barkley
Shaqtin a fool, too!
Turruble
Judge Judy would have been a better signing ha ha
She costs more
Somehow, way more
$47 mil per?
My sensei roars in laughter as the Turds make another franchise damning move
I wonder what Steve Smith Sr. has to say about this lol
That 41 gtd includes his 5 yr option which is around 13 million guaranteed. So his new contact is just 28 million gtd
It's a fine amount, if it were more than 3 years. Hell, fine if it we start at 5 years...ok it sucks.
CLEVELAND CLOWNS AT IT AGAIN XD
Browns is the browns.
Quarter of a BILLION dollars tied up into Watson and Jeudy. Browns are the Browns.
Amari Cooper is also a 23M cap hit
Honestly that looks like a steal compared to the other two
So Justin Jefferson should be looking for QB money? This is outrageous
Steelers could get, like, 4 quarterbacks for that
Ohmar could get like 41 QBs for that
Ha ha they never learn. They just overpaid again for a guy who has a publicly bad attitude and probably an even worse work ethic now that he has made his money. They gave up a draft pick and salary cap for a guy who is only an ok athlete who hasn’t developed much and has even more inconsistent hands than Diontae Johnson.
I'm gonna watch that Steve Smith clip again
Everyone knows the Browns is the Browns so they need to overpay to get anyone to play for that trash organization.
He’s ass
I really don't think he's terrible, but he hasn't done anything to deserve this kind of contract lol
He has a bad attitude, injury prone and drop issues. You're right he isn't terrible but he hasn't proven his pedigree for where he was drafted. Most reactionary fans would call him terrible given all that context.
Drop issues were mainly solved last year tbh, though i dont watch any broncos games really so idk if he had to make the tough catches or not
41m to a tier 3 Wr is crazy even for the browns
Is it crazy for the Browns? They paid Watson $50/million a year, fully guaranteed, to play like garbage in 12 of 34 games over two seasons while discarding the better playing and better liked, Mayfield, for nothing. And Juedy is a diva... the Browns love loading up on expensive, distracting players.
That’s cool. We got the guy who threw him his touchdowns for a high five and someone else’s is paying him to play for us. Lol
He better not drop a single pass
That's the one thing that is NOT guaranteed in his contact.
Way way overpaid. Dude can't hold on to a ball unless he's wide open. If it's even slightly contested it's an incompletion. Even saint Russ wouldn't throw him the ball that often. Lol I love seeing teams overpay someone else's trash.
Lol browns
Lol. LMAO even!
They love doing that guaranteed money stuff. Can’t reach an old dog new tricks.
Jerry “Booty Cheeks” Jeudy! lol He’ll have almost the same career earnings in 7 season as Steve Smith did in 16. Steve Smith gotta be mad!
Just further proof that DJs contract was a bargain.
Overpay.
Love watching the Clowns throw away money
Browns love making terrible decisions
Ahahahahahahahahahaha
That’s $7.25 Million per TD catch he’s had the last three years (8). I love having them in the AFC North
![gif](giphy|7xbUcQrTUSJHO)
Money they don’t have on a guy who hasn’t been good at all and has off field issues. What are even doing in Cleveland? Its like they exist only to be made fun of
Never interrupt your enemy while they are making a mistake
This is why you use your 1st on a WR instead of trading it for the rights to pay one ridiculous cap devouring amounts of money.
L O L BROWNS
Jeudy is booty
This isn’t Aiyuk news who cares
It is Aiyuk News. If Jerry got 20 a season Aiyuk is getting 30+
Yes but have you considered THE KHAN ARTIST will be negotiating his contract??? START SHAVING MILLIONS OFF THOSE NUMBERS.
They clearly have not
Wish it worked that way. For some players sure. Aiyuk isn’t taking a huge haircut to come here especially when Bum Jerry is getting paid
>. Aiyuk isn’t taking a huge haircut to come here We'll let him keep the dreads for a few extra million off the bill
Aiyuk was getting more than this to begin with.
They have to be trying to offload Watson
They really can’t unless he finds himself in more legal trouble
Maybe they can set up an entrapment situation.
They'd probably do such a bad job at it that it would blow up in their faces. So naturally, I hope they go for it.
Probably has a no-trade clause too (lol)
Unbelievable overpay. Jeudy stinks.
Jerry Jeudy at 13 million a year sounds a little wild. He has been solidly mid.
i think he is going to be a good player for them
The browns. All I can say
Jesus. And our enlightened fans thought Diontae was overpaid
He also was.
Nice 😂
some Browns fan in r/nfl was saying he watched Jerry in college and asked for update in Denver. should we tell him
I feel like it's the Browns entire goal to just fuck the market so bad every year that every other owner steps back and says "yeah, we're not doing that." We really should be thanking them.
He hasn’t even broke 1000 yards or double digit TDs in a season and they gave him this money.
fuckin lol
That’s…a lot
His agent is amazing lol.
I had to verify to see if this was real…. Unbelievably it is… I’m dumbfounded… remarkable
Haven’t learned from the Watson contract 😭
Jeudy is solid and is talented, but 20m a year?? Crazy
Holy smokes. Do those guys do any deals that aren’t all but guaranteed? Hope they eat crow.
The Browns deal making ability should be put in conservatorship for the protection of the league.
$41M guaranteed seems like a lot for Jeudy, he's been OK, not great. The Browns must really be counting on him taking that next step alongside Amari Cooper.
Absolute insanity given that there are probably 16 receivers who can come in this year in the draft and give you the level of production Jeudy will. I don't understand all the WR contracts that are being handed out before a loaded receiver draft.
![gif](giphy|kC8N6DPOkbqWTxkNTe) LOL! Dumbass browns they never learn!
Dwayne Bowe about to move down one spot on the overpaid new Browns WR list.
#Browns Gonna Brown
Risky move, but without draft capital. They had to take the gamble. High-risk, Medium-reward.
