I think your post proves that you can trade for "an elite QB" - and not get what you thought you were going to get. Wentz and RG3 flashed for maybe 2 years a piece. Goff never did anything in LA - has done better with Detroit.
I think if you went to the organizations and ask if they could have a do over with any of those examples - they probably would. If Watson ends up with similar career performances of any of those QB's you listed the Browns organization failed .... you can applaud the effort to acquire a QB you want/hope to be a top 5 QB in the NFL --- but the actual success of the trade is entirely based on results. If the results are marginally better than the guy he replaced, it was a fail.
