Cap Compliancy & Cutting Watson How can this team cut Deshaun Watson this off-season and still be cap compliant? Well, it isn't pretty, but here's one realistic scenario that would do the job. The effective cap space of the Cleveland Browns is -$50,699,099 at this point in the season. This includes the cap from all players, draft capital, dead money, void money that accelerates if certain players are not extended, and UDFA minimum contracts to fill out the rest of the roster as needed. In order to become cap compliant enough to cut Watson and not restructure him, here are the three seemingly mandatory steps:  Step 1: Restructure everybody.

After Justin Fields, soon-to-be backup quarterback, the largest 2026 cap hit is Brandon Stephens at $14 million. With talented players on rookie contracts, now is the time to spend. In this mock iteration, the primary goal is to get the offense as rookie-QB friendly as possible. I believe that the offense needs to be top priority, and then I will leave over $100 million in projected cap space for 2027 to buy a defense and any remaining needed pieces for the offense. The opportune window to ...
