Does winning truly trump everything?

Sometimes I wonder how far an NFL team would go to find a great quarterback.

The position itself is more important than any in team sports. As your quarterback goes, so goes your franchise, your fan base, your revenue stream, your place in history.

But take a guy such as Deshaun Watson.

Not only take him, but give up three first-round draft picks to his previous team (the Texans) and guarantee him $230 million, all while not knowing whether he’ll play a down for your team.

That’s what the Browns did.

The reason Watson’s career with the Browns is in jeopardy is because he is facing a slew of civil suits for alleged sexual-assault and harassment brought by a bunch of female massage therapists.
