HawkeyeJet Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 Also, I do think that this might be a more real possibility than some think. Watson did not appear happy with the GM situation. The Texans are a long way off even with Watson and have little draft capital. It would be a bold move, but I could see him moving. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 You trust your instincts if you feel there is a qb in the draft that would help the Jets. Watson is a win now qb, and the Jets are not a win now team. And would be less so with the draft assets they would need to secure him. 6 4 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson presumably wants Bieniemy as his coach, so you’d have to do a package deal. Even so, how do you not do this? 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhat of a gamble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 4 hours ago, T0mShane said: Darnold, both firsts this year, next year’s first. No. Not next year's first. No way. Watson comes in with a $40M/year contract. Justin Fields comes in with a rookie contract. Yes, Watson is a known commodity and top-5 QB and Fields is completely unknown, but there is a cost to that contract that offsets a lot of that. Two firsts and Sam is more than enough for me. Honestly, HOU, with no picks in rounds 1 or 2 this year and cap issues, would probably leap at that offer. HOWEVER... Watson carries a $50M dead cap hit if they trade him this year. $35M after June 1 (which doesn't help since that's after the draft). They would literally not be able to field a team. So unless the cap is MUCH higher than projected, I don't think it's possible for them to trade him this year. [edit: My mistake. This was the 'cut' money. The trade money is lower as pointed out in a reply later on] 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DJF71 Posted January 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2021 Leave it to the Jets to not draft him in 2017 only to draft a safety instead who is no longer on the team. Then give away 3 second round draft picks for a QB that they are going to dump. Then to trade three even higher draft picks for a QB they should have drafted with a $40M salary and then give him a roster worse than the one he asked to be traded from. We are not in the position to trade away draft picks. FA's rarely work out for us so we can't say lets just sign this guy or that guy. 10 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BroadwayRay Posted January 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2021 Keep dreaming folks, but making this type of trade is not how Douglas builds a team. He has said repeatedly he is a believer in "drafting and developing." He repeated it in his press conference a few days ago. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson is a win now qb, and the Jets are not a win now team. And would be less so with the draft assets they would need to secure him. Under different circumstances I might agree with that conceptually, but Watson is 25 years old. The dude has a LOOOOOOONG career ahead of him, and is proven as an insanely talented QB. He is a guy you can build your entire team around, and even if they gave up a ton to get him, they'd still have plenty left to start putting a better team together around him this year, and his presence would be an immediate selling point to FAs. If we were talking about a QB near retirement then it's an entirely different story, but when you're talking about a guy who will have some rookies nearly as old as him, there's nothing "win now" about it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I like Watson a lot, he is well worth a good price; However just to point out if we are dealing all basically our 1sts over the next two years for him he is coming to a worse version of the team he just left. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QB1 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I'd give #2 and Darnold, and take some other terrible contract off their books.

You still got the rest of your picks to build with. Either way, this is Madden scenarios, nothing like that is happening. But fun to play out.
