Slikmojet! Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Plus a first to Houston in 22? Somebody was mentioning 3 first round picks for Watson. I like Watson but 3 ones is too much. I would rather sit at 2 and draft Wilson or Fields. But Houston might be interested in Darnold as a sweetener for their loss. They may think Darnold has some upside still and could develop with a better cast around him. 2 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Prodigal Syndicate Posted January 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2021 He would be a throw in/sweetener and you would still have to give up 2 firsts and probably more, would be my guess. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jgb Posted January 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2021 3 picks is not too much for an elite QB, especially considering one of those picks will need to be used on a QB anyway, possibly more if Jets kick can down road to next year and may need to trade up to get the guy they want. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post oatmeal Posted January 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2021 Darnold is done, if you go check the temperature of other fan bases the consensus is the jets are either going Watson or QB at 2. Really nobody believes the “Jets May build around darnold” narrative, the only people that legitimately believe this are Darnold fans. If you remove biases from this situation and analyze all factors, it’s kinda obvious how this thing plays out imo 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the leverage here. OMG... wait for it... I'm actually going to agree with you... This debate is on and on and on, but never thought about it this way. They are essentially getting Fields as well with our #2. So I might spice it up a bit with another pick, but that's it. And for those who are saying if Adams was worth 2 1st's and a 3rd, what is Watson worth... Well sometimes you get over on a GM, and sometimes you don't. I'm not going to sit here and say Sneider is stupid, but that was a stupid deal, and he's the only one that made it. I'm sure JD had other deals he wasn't willing to do, and then walla, along came that deal. So no Watson is not worth 3 1st's... I'd rather take Fields and keep our picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y2k8 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 3 hours ago, QB1 said: It’s actually the opposite the only people convinced that the jets are replacing Darnold are jets fans This is accurate. The rest of the NFL and fans of other teams by-and-large think Darnold was screwed by a bad organization with an awful coaching staff. They may or may not be correct, but that is the outsider perspective, IF the Jets were to trade a bunch of high picks to get Watson, Darnold is guaranteed to be a part of the package. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to give up at least 3 of them - or 2 plus some other 2nd rounders. At a certain point the price just gets too high for the Jets. Watson won 4 games with a roster as poor as the Jets. We make a trade and ship off all of those picks - we are signing up for more of the same, imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noway Houston takes a deal without multiple picks. Their fans don't want multiple picks. They want a Watson replacement. These aren't the Patriots, these aren't fans with multiple Super Bowls who can be chill for a few seasons while the Texans rebuild. The Titans and Jaguars have legit quarterbacks. The Colts will get a veteran behind that line. The Texans need Fields, has to happen. For the Jets, with Fields in hand, Watson becomes a luxury. We can just sit tight at 2 and do nothing. The Texans need to make something happen. Fields is their answer. SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jamal is worth 2 then Watson is worth???! Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Totally agree. To get RG3 in the 2014 draft Washington traded 3 first-round picks and 1 second-round pick. To get the Carson Wentz in the 2016 draft the Eagles made two trade ups and in the process traded away 2 first round picks (including the 2016 No. 13 overall pick), 1 second-round pick, 1 third-round pick, 1 fourth-round pick, CB Byron Maxwell and LB Kiko Alonso Assuming no players other than Watson are involved in the deal, since Watson is not an unknown commodity like Wentz and RG3, but rather a 25 year old 3 time all-pro, the price for Watson in draft picks should be something like 3 first-round, 2 second-round and 3 third-round. Unless, of course, the trade is with the Jags and the #1 overall pick this year, than the other picks become less because of the inflated value of this year's #1 overall selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vic Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Please, no Watson! Douglas will build a strong team with all the draft picks he accumulated, giving them all away for one man, no matter how good, doesn’t make sense. If he thinks Darnold can be fixed and thrive in a new system, trade down and acquire even more picks, if not ,Wilson looks like a great option. In that case trade Darnold for a second, forget about Watson, let another team mortgage their future.Sent from my iPad using JetNation.com mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
