Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans

Houston Texans Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Cleveland's trade for Deshaun Watson became one of the most damaging modern blockbuster deals. The Browns surrendered a massive pick package and handed Watson a fully guaranteed contract, while Houston escaped the situation and rebuilt with premium assets. The Texans won decisively because Cleveland absorbed nearly all of the risk. It is one of the clearest modern examples of a team paying franchise-quarterback prices without receiving franchise-quarterback stability.

  • Pick Deshaun Watson and 2024 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Will Reichard)
