Not sure why the Seahawks would pass up 3 chances to draft a player ranked in the mid 60’s in the first round...

Are you this obtuse? I mean, I know you’re one of “those posters” but seriously - try to grasp the English language before using it for debate. In my original post I made three statements regarding the situation. The first was the fact that Watson has a clean reputation. This is based on public knowledge and isn’t up for debate. It’s true. It’s a fact. Nothing like this has ever happened before and everything you read about him says he’s a stand up guy. My take on Watson as a person has nothing to do with my other statement that I wouldn’t be shocked if this was some crazy thing made up by the team- the team that has been accused of having their players followed, which is completely unprecedented. What’s one more crazy entry. You’re acting like I claimed first hand knowledge of watson or the situation, while anyone with a 2nd grade reading comprehension level can tell from my original post that I clearly did not. again, don’t be stupid.

in what way was it not clear that I was fabricating an opinion?... I said “From everything I’ve seen.” Don’t be idiotic.

All I hear in the whining is “we overpaid for Stefon Diggs!!!”

Bill, you seem like a fine gent who has all his marbles firmly in place and is never in asinine arguments with respected posters on this board in which you look like an idiot. I hope you have a beautiful day.

Is “from what I’ve seen” a hard grouping of words to understand?... I thought I was being clear, but I guess not “Mr. WEO” clear. Forgive me. This team we’re talking about is the one that’s been accused of having their players followed and has made some of the stupidest decisions ever in the past several years. Is anything truly off the table? Lol. Step 1: start by responding to a perfectly reasonable comment with moral outrage. Step 2: get flamed for being stupid. Step 3: “woah buddy! Relax!”

I too look at the return on investment that the Jets got on that over pay and say to myself: “how can we get a piece of that?! Sign me up!” People, by and large, are dumb.

I wouldn’t presume to think wise decision making is coming from that organization now. It doesn’t make any sense, unless they’re pissed, and trying to get revenge, or they’re trying to dry up the market so they can’t be forced to trade him. Probably unlikely, but this is the team that’s recently been accused of having their players followed, so who the heck knows. I see comprehension is still difficult for you. I’m not surprised. If you find the timing of this suit being filed as completely coincidental, I have a bridge for sale in your neck of the words you might be interested in.

I’ll take “Awkward Locker Room Moments for $600, please Alex.”

Same, though I don’t know that he brings much as a vertical speed threat. I expect them to draft someone in the late rounds just because they seem to realize that this team will live and die in the air - and they want Josh comfortable with as many pass catchers as possible. If you end up with too many, trade one. Never a bad problem to have.

Good opening response by Watson.

Exactly. He’s a rental. Go add a guy in the 5th or 6th that gives you straight line speed and some plus special teams ability and see if he can develop into a route runner / speed option in the future - he won’t want for tutors around here.

The lawyer def. seems like an ambulance chasing, 15 minutes of fame sniffing dude. Doesn’t mean the accusation is false- it just means he and his “client” are definitely out for the very things they claim to not be out for - money and fame.

The thing of it is, a suit is a palpable thing. It’s either been filed or not. If it has, there might actually be something akin to legs on this fish.

The timing on this is almost too much to even begin to believe...

Oof.... my first instinct is to call bs. Watson has been nothing but a standup guy going back to Clemson - from everything I’ve ever seen. My second instinct is to say: who the hell would be surprised if the Texans (specifically Easterbe) was doing something to try and sully Watson’s name? With what we’ve heard that seems perfectly on brand. My third instinct is to say - dang. This’ll be interesting. really my third is my first.

I know he’ll probably get 15, 18, 19 or get 10 from Fromm, but dang if this 81 isn’t sexy. #numbersmatter

Samuel’s speed is great, and I’d love to have him. He’ll probably get 2x the amount of Sanders. Draft is still an option for speed later (Tutu Atwell in the 3rd? Ihmir Smith-Marsett in the 5th?) but that’s potential speed and potential production. Sanders is a sure thing.

6 is a little higher than I wanted, but If they’ve wanted him this long I’m fine with it. They know more than I do.

you know that speed doesn’t just pop up randomly to be grabbed at your convenience....

I mean... thanks for this stunning insight Sal.... puke

Weird.....

No, he isn’t... but you’d be betting on the fact that his one down year had more to do with being in a completely dysfunctional and broken offense with horrible QB play. im fine with that bet.

might not find that out until he’s released...

Twitter likes and whatnot are usually pretty pointless for sourcing, but that one is suspicious...
