The Saga of Deshaun Watson

[Johnny English]

Unless you're maneuvering the owner out of the franchise....it won't matter.

No one will want to come there because he will tell them not to

Both of these things may very well be correct, but it still gives the Texans more to work with and may impact their willingness to trade him.

I'm just here to bring you closer to Jesus's warm embrace.

Thus far my mission is not going well.

manoeuvre, from the French word "manoeuvre" meaning "to manipulate".

If I can't bring Jesus to you, I can at least bring a modicum of education.

There's a reason Tannenbaum on TV and not running an NFL franchise

In Tanny's defense, part of the reason Houston is in this situation is because Tanny fleeced the Texans in the Tunsil deal.

Sounds like late stage-get Tebow Tannenbaum, not early stage-2006 and 2007 drafts Tannenbaum.

Eric Mangini ran those drafts, not Tannenbaum

  ^ This +100.   A slew of 1's AND Quinnen Williams?

I don't think it's unrealistic

Though it would be nice if that slew of one's didn't include #2 and instead included Darnold

Darnold Williams both of Seattle's picks and our next two 1s (not including #2) wouldn't be a horrible trade

[Derek Smalls]

That said, I wouldn't offer four 1s and Quinnen. Unless teams are offering multiple young stars, how many teams can beat four 1sts? Or 3 and Quinnen?

If it becomes a bidding war somehow, and we need to offer all of that to win, take it or leave it, that's a really tough choice and I probably say no. There becomes a point where the roster is too gutted where I would rather take a shot on a rookie quarterback and hope we can build a quality young roster with picks around him, and I think that's the point.

From the flipside there could be a point where an offer is so shitty that they might just be better off sitting it out.

I mean imagine if Watson was a jet and he was forcing our hand. Unless someone offered somewhat appropriate value, what have they got to lose by saying okay then sit out.

In a year the dudes still gonna be a 26 year old star QB. And maybe teams will be willing to offer more for him.

I certainly don't hope Houston takes that approach, but if he was a jet I certainly wouldn't want to give him up for less than a treasure of riches
