2023 Free agency and trade thread

Yep all up to him

That's the beauty of a no-trade clause in your contract I suppose

Not at all surprised the Saints brought him back. Was kind of hoping he would hit free agency and see if any teams were interested in him.

@bksballer89 it sounds like Watson’s top 2 are Saints and Browns. I dont see a viable way for ATL with that Ryan contract.

Baker is gone…so no they don’t. The Saints have a dome, working in their favor. I see it like 70-30, he goes to Saints

well if the Browns landed Watson, then you could trade with the Browns for Mayfield. They will need to recoup some draft picks anyways.

I heard somewhere that the Browns in the last 4 years have won more games in a 4 year period since you would have to go all the way back to the 80's before they won more. In that same time period.

Yep great guy and thankful for all that he did for CLE. The timing is weird bc Watson hasn’t made a decision but the Browns being a historically bad franchise could not wait…they want to win RIGHT NOW and Baker had a ceiling. First playoff win in a long time and I wish the best of luck to him on his journey. Sounds like he wants to go to the Colts

Houston is dumb AF if they let Watson stay in the AFC. Browns have a great shot at the playoffs with Baker. With Watson, they're probably ahead of the Broncos in terms of roster talent.

I'd also say its dumb AF if the Browns trade Baker to the Colts...although considerably less so because Im not sure Baker has much of a market.

Still, a healthy Baker is better than Wentz. And Wentz almost made the playoffs.

So, what do the Browns do from there? I love Keenum, but I don't think he's getting that team back to the playoffs.

The rumor is that Watson has the choice between Cleveland, New Orleans, and Carolina. Id imagine he would pick Cleveland.

Why? By the time Houston is a serious threat Watson could be on his 3rd tean via Free agency. Get the best package and don't worry about where you trade him to.
