Coach Tuesday Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 As I just said in another thread - it’s too bad you can’t fire owners. Trading Watson within the conference is a fireable offense - especially after the Tunsil, Hopkins and Clowney debacles. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Texans trade him to another AFC team I hope their entire franchise goes up in flames. Bear in mind that Schefter is often a shill for the agents. It is one thing for a team to trade away a pick that might be used to draft a high-potential franchise QB. It is another thing for a team to trade away an actual, proven, franchise QB I don't see how a GM or GM/Coach combination could possibly recover from that unless they got a sure-fire franchise QB at least as good or better in return. Moreover, if they trade Watson, the Texans immediately eat $21.6M of dead cap. Right now, they're something like $17.6M in the red. Unless the Texans are tremendously stupid, they tell Watson that they have $21.6M plus 5 contract years of reasons to sit tight and tell him to GTF over his feelings. Now the Texans HAVE been tremendously stupid, but allegedly those people have left the building. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Praying for the Eagles. That seems to make the most sense. Texans would be absolute idiots to trade him within the conference. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSarcasm Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 The bears need to give up whatever it takes to get him. With him at QB that team can at the very least split games with GB every year. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) Jets and Dolphins definitely have the picks to make it work.

I'll believe it when I see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly none of that was a deal-breaker. It's a mess and both sides are to blame. The real problem is, like I just mentioned, is that Houston simply cannot get equal value for him. All teams know the situation is bad and the Texans cannot get a Herschel Walker-like haul in return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Stare Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 If the Texans dump him, they deserve everything coming their way. Morons empowered the disaster Bill O’Brien who ruined the team around him. Now they seem to favor this slimy Jack Easterby character who supposedly won’t have anything to do with the football operation. Over your franchise QB?!?! Are you F’n kidding me. Dump him to the NFC if you do get rid of him. At least be smart about something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimer1960 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 If I were the Jets, I’d start the offer with their 1st and 2nd picks this year and Darnold for Watson. Miami could offer 2 1sts this year and Tua. I think both Tua and Darnold could be good with some weapons an round them, but Watson is very good.

If Texans get what they want i doubt they will care if it’s AFC or NFC. No one has the picks to make that work. Look, I don't care how well-regarded a guy is in college, there's still overall something between a 20-30% chance even a 1st round pick makes it as a QB in the NFL. 50% may be for a guy drafted in the top-3 picks. An established, proven franchise QB (not just an "I can win with this guy and a team around him", a "give him a target or two and he can put the team on his back" guy) is not something you give up for any number of picks. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
