Deshaun Watson might be close to joining this NFL team
Deshaun Watson without a doubt is the most demanded player currently in the NFL and many teams are wanting him to join them in order to contend for the Super Bowl.
This is due to the fact that when playing Watson is one of the best quarterbacks in the league and he can instantly make some teams a Super Bowl contender instantly.
Teams like the Cleveland Browns, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and Carolina Panthers have already met with Deshaun Watson in order to convince him in joining their franchise.
Watson has not come up to a decision yet on where he will go in this upcoming season but a very trustable source has dropped a hint on where the quarterback can be headed to next season.
Chief ESPN’s NFL Insider Adam Schefter has reported that the Falcons and the Saints are the frontrunners to land Watson.
He stated that Watson wants to go to a team that is closer to his home and him being a Georgia native gives the Atlanta Falcons the biggest advantage among any other team.
However, Adam Schefter stated that New Orleans and Carolina isn’t far away from Atlanta either and they also have a good chance of landing him for the upcoming season.
It will be interesting to see where ultimately Watson ends up because that can impact the whole league in the next season.
Atlanta Falcons might face a very big difficulty in trying to land Deshaun Watson
The Atlanta Falcons want Deshaun Watson but getting him won’t be easy for them because of the large contract of their current quarterback Matt Ryan.
If they trade Matt Ryan they will be facing $40m + in dead money which will not be easy for them to handle and can cause serious trouble for the franchise.
This gives a major advantage to other teams who are pursuing Deshaun as they can easily trade for him without worrying about their salary cap and this could turn out to be a big issue for the Atlanta Falcons in the long run.
