How much blame do the Haslams get for the Deshaun Watson trade?

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam admitted on Monday that the trade for Deshaun Watson was a big swing and miss and taking accountability for the mistake, leading many on social media to take it as a sign that the whole trade was the Haslams’ idea. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discussed how much blame the Haslams really deserve and how much should be spread around on Monday’s Orange and Brown Talk podcast. First, they talk about what Haslam had to say about the No. 2 overall pick and not forcing a quarterback. They also talk about Kirk Cousins getting spotted in Cleveland, if he could still be in play and if that’s even the best course of action for the Browns.
