It is a point though... if the QBs are gone I am not against trying to punt one of our firsts into next year. Not sure you would find a dance partner though. Yeah they out kicked the coverage when they traded with Andy Reid. We obviously know Houston would have been a lot better team if Watson had remained healthy..............but the premise if you are making that trade is that you DIDN'T THINK WATSON could be that good.............in which case how did they get out-maneuvered when there was a team with Tom Savage as the starting QB to trade with? That might be the single worst bit of personnel chip value mis-management since McD arrived.........and as you know........I think there were a few.

SoCal Deek Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I had never heard of Mike White before this thread...but after googling his size and stats he sure has the measurables. I'll leave it to the Scouting Department to know better about how he stacks up against his peers and the competition. One thing I do know is that you can't teach size. He is listed at 6'-4" tall....which would be refreshing change from the current starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will be honest I'd have had Houston being better than KC this year too. It isn't just Watson, they have been decimated with injuries across their whole roster. Of course you know what I thought of Watson and what I would have done at #10 in April and we would be having a whole different conversation.

Thats a nice haul and still get their QB in Mayfield. Just saying because they choose again in the top 5 there is a chance they move out. However if we dont get Rosen or Darnold i dont want to trade up at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story as I have heard it is that they had Watson and Mahomes very close on their board (Trubisky a distant 3rd by the way). They were thinking Watson with Mahomes as the fall back. It was the Chiefs jumping up for Mahomes that forced the Texans to jump too. Their preference was to wait a few more picks so that a trade up.would not have cost them a 1st.

Didn't know the part about Trubisky, who was long gone anyway. And had Watson stayed healthy, much less Watt, Cushing, and half the other stars, that team would have a lower pick than the Chefs did. But hindsight's 20/20, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
