Will Deshaun Watson’s contract go down as the worst NFL contract of all time? (alien.top)

He had huge red flags in terms of character, has been a compete bust and is making Jamarcus Russell’s deal look like a bargain.

Cleveland could have been a SB contender with a decent QB and instead they gave their fans this epic disaster.

If this isn’t the worst contract of all time, what signings are worse?

I feel like some of the late-stage #1 picks have to top Watson and Haynesworth. Sam Bradford, didn't he get $100m? The curbing of those contracts was essential because it basically helped keep this poverty cycle going for the worst teams. You got this crapshoot "top pick" AND you had to pay crazy dollars against the cap to even use them.
