Malik Willis bumped his draft stock this past weekend. He won't make it to #9 now. He might not even make it out of the top 5. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I still don't get the Watson hype even if you take away the all these allegations and his unprofessional attitude. But good for Seattle if they want to piss away all the assets they just received in the Wilson deal on him and hope Watson enjoys rebuilding and playing in one of the toughest divisions in the NFL.

Doc Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 When I heard Wilson got traded for a couple 1st, I figured this was their next move. Pete Carroll doesn't care about character so it makes sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston should take them for MORE.........Denver absolutely FLEECED Seattle for Watson. And the fact that all the teams that seem to be listed as destinations for Watson are in the NFC should only drive up the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally get a good QB over to the NFC to compete with cakewalk Rodgers. Although, we saw Kyler look incompetent at times without Hopkins. In the one year post-Hopkins in Houston, Watson didn't exactly look very good - He put up most of his numbers in garbage time. Currently the Seahawks have DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, a great 1-2 punch at WR and just added a solid TE in Noah Fant. I think those options are probably as good, if not better than when Watson had Hopkins and an often injured will fuller. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he terrible but I see him more as a Jay Cutler type...can put up big numbers and fill the stat sheet but wilts under pressure and against good teams. In fact his only career playoff win came against our very own Bills in a few years ago in a game we also probably should should have won. Still think any team that gives up a lot in a trade is stupid though since Watson essentially quit on his current team and big time extension he signed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 As someone on Twitter said… In terms of how this all affects the Bills and the AFC: if it turns out the AFC ultimately ships out a 26 year old Deshaun Watson and gets back a 34 year old Russell Wilson — who gets put into the meat grinder AFC West — that’s a net win for Buffalo and its yearly chances at the #1 seed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe long term, but I’d have to disagree in the short term. The Texans are more than a QB away from being a good team, but the broncos were average with bad QB play. Adding a top 10 QB to a solid roster in the AFC doesn’t help the bills chances… unless you are counting on the rest of the AFC west having worse records due to adding Wilson in division.

Lv-Bills Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, RoyBatty is alive said: Did he really? At 4-12? Yes you can spin it that way. You are what your record says you are, especially for a QB in a QB driven league. The Texans won exactly as many games with Davis Mills/Tyrod Taylor as they did the year before with Deshaun Watson with JJ Watt. Simple undeniable facts. What does a team's record have to do with what kind of a year Deshaun Watson had? If anything, it makes an even better point about what a great year Watson had in spite of the crap that surrounded him. Kind of like Joe Thomas or Calvin Johnson. And it certainly didn't all mostly come in garbage time, which was an absurd comment that provoked my response in the first place. The Texans were 4-12 with Watson, who killed it in 2020. He also had them more than competitive in at least 12 of 16 games. He, as in his own performance, was outstanding, and that is well documented by many sports people. Some of which said it may have been his greatest season in his young career considering who the Texans surrounded him with. Below is just one of several articles that realize how good this QB is, and was in 2020. This isn't even questionable.

SoTier Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 3 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: Plaintiff's attorneys must be waiting for the grand jury to indict before they get their teeth into him for those civil depositions... The evidence in criminal proceedings is considerably higher than in civil proceedings, and these cases are notably difficult to prosecute because it's generally "he said/she said". Cuomo faced criminal charges in two or three counties, but I think that all of those were dropped before they ever got to the grand jury stage because the DAs didn't think they could get the grand juries to return criminal charges. 1 hour ago, Watkins101 said: Maybe long term, but I’d have to disagree in the short term.

The idea is that this is good for the Bills because it evens up the AFCW so that those teams are likely to beat each other up, knocking all of them out of the running for the #1 seed. The Bills, OTOH, have an easy road to the #1 seed because they easily dominate the AFCE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills’ Super Bowl odds went up in Vegas after the Wilson trade. The Chiefs’ odds went down. Three, or perhaps all four, of the AFC west teams are going to be good, but they all face each other. They may all end up with 3-3 division records every year, while the Bills are 5-1 in the East. The West and North will be season long dogfights for the foreseeable future, while the East looks comparatively easy. That means a higher chance at the top seed for Buffalo, which is why Vegas gives them the top Super Bowl odds in the conference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
