The Saga of Deshaun Watson

Not sure how no other teams could be willing to give up as much as Chicago

You trade with Chicago and youre fucked when it comes to QB

Even if they offered their two best players and threw in Tribusiky or Foles, I just don't see what Chicago can offer

Unless it's like their 1st round picks for the next 5 years or something ridiculous

This is what I would be concerned about.

Can only trade picks three years in advance in the NFL.

I didn't know that.

I think Douglas will let the Texans come to him regarding Watson if they decide to trade him.  Douglas can sit where he is and take Wilson.  We have the golden ticket (well silver) when it comes to drafting a QB not named Lawrence.  The only way we aren't in the driver's seat is if the Texans are fine taking a QB beyond #2 overall.  No need to negotiate with yourself.  I think Douglas isn't going to go all in on Watson because he's legitimately happy to draft a QB at 2.  It all comes down to how bad the Texans want the best QB not named Lawrence.

Apparently that report is mostly bullshit taken from Darlington speculation 2 days ago

I dont see how the Bears outbid the Jets simply because of the #2 pick vs #20 pick. They'd have to put together an offer of 5 firsts plus players to beat a reasonable offer from the Jets.

The Texans are going to want a quick fix at their QB position.  That basically eliminates every team except the Phins and Jets.


The Bears can go kick rocks, they have nothing to offer that can come close.

I have no freaking idea what kind of massive deal Chicago could offer then

The entirety of their next 3 drafts?

I imagine that #2 and a second is worth more than all 3 of Chicago's 1st rounders over the 3 drafts

Seattle, Dallas, probably San Francisco could certainly be considered viable options.

All have been rumored to be looking to make moves at QB and have short-term solutions that could appeal to Houston.

Obviously other teams could jump in, but I'd wager these are the most attractive

The only thing I could see is if the Texans trade for or sign a veteran QB as their starter and trade Watson for a haul to rebuild from the ground up.  I don't see it happening without them settling for a Trubisky type of player.

SF doesn't offer anything in regards to a QB.  Garappolo stinks.

I'm not sure Dak Prescott's contract stalemate would appeal to the Texans. Considering they just handed out a monster deal to Watson.  For a guy who stares at the salary cap 24/7, i thought you would know this already.

Seattle has no first round picks. They would have to give up significantly more than Russell Wilson for Watson. Considering he's 7 years older.

If I'm Caserio...i'm looking at pkgs from the Jets and Phins.  They have the draft capital and young QBs to trade back.  In the Jets case (if Darnold isn't their cup of tea), that #2 pick is the crown jewel.

[MBGreen]

Having said all that....I don't think Joe Douglas will be interested. He sounds quite determined to build through the draft (which i'm a fan of). Unless of course, he's lying through his teeth.

Caserio was director of player personnel when new England got Jimmy G, and you know how nepotism works on this league.

And Seattle has other assets and future picks. Weren't people on this board bitching when I said us trading for Russell Wilson is retarded? If the Jets should want him, so should Houston

Sure the Dak thing would be a pain in the derriere for Houston, but they are more than capable of discussing it before agreeing to a trade. On the flip side it gets them a young talented QB. And you could probably get Dallas to throw in some nice assets as well (accounting for Watson being better, and the Texans having to eat some salary cap to make it work)
