It's like 4 degrees outside I've yet to see any explanation why Watson would actually want this because the team has the resources to build a contender if they make the right moves. if watson comes to new york and wins he is talked about in the same breath as derek jeter and joe namath. thats enticing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 16 hours ago, Dcat said: How do we correlate a 2nd round pick + washed up RB for Hopkins with all this? Let's not forget that Houston does not value picks as other teams do. In the end, Houston probably keeps Watson and saves face. And that brings us back to Darnold vs Wilson. I can see why people prefer the trade down in that scenario. Tell me where all the board confidence in Darnold is coming from? How will they save face if Watson refuses to play? No 1st round pick and AJ McCarron as the starting QB isn't really a risk they can take. Sure, they can tank in that instance, but why waste a full season like that when they can possibly get the # 2 pick right now? I don't see how Houston comes away from this situation with Watson at QB and not looking like a complete disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I'd do everything possible to trade down out of #2 in 2021 to acquire a mid-1st in 2021 and a 1st in 2022. That's my plan as of today. So: Jets Offer: 2021 1st Round Pick #23 2021 3rd Round Pick 2022 1st Round Pick (Seattle) 2023 1st Round Pick 2023 3rd Round Pick Sam Darnold (QB) Texans Offer: Deshaun Watson (QB) SORRY this AIN'T enough for an ELITE QB Who is Sam Darnold?

Then you wait for the divorce. Meanwhile, the wife is sending you nude selfies on the low, and your other neighbor’s wives are whispering into the dime’s ear that you secretly have a 10” dick and can drive nails into a 2x4 with your tongue. It’s only a matter of time. So to be clear, you've been the husband in this instance, correct? Explains a lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lowest I saw him all year was against Denver (ironically considering he ran that 45 yard TD... he was pretty pumped up for that, otherwise, looked defeated... could attribute it to his shoulder injury but didn't look confident even before that). Worst game of the season in terms of production (not stats) had to be IND for me. What I saw from him when he came back from injury was a confident QB, just not a very good one. The production wasn't there, he was inconsistent, made a lot of mistakes. But I didn't see someone who was "defeated" per se. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that there's an advantage. Again, it's the about the word of the day: hedging Deshaun's mad enough already, but there's hope that once the agents get drowned out and he gets a chance to connect with the coaching staff, he'll come back. Make him available for trade or god forbid a conversation gets leaked that you're vetting out teams to trade for him? Now you're definitely not getting him back. They're not a competitive football team and he's one of the best players in the NFL. You're not replacing him if you move him before the draft so why not wait it out and see if Culley and his staff can mend the fences? As they say, time heals all wounds. Whether Deshaun plays or not, I don't think the front office believes this team will compete. You won't hear the coaching staff say that, but the FO doesn't expect much. If he sits out, you're probably picking 1st in 2022 and then you can revisit trading him to a team likely willing to pay the same +3 1st round picks that teams were willing to pay this year.

I agree with you that teams lie through their teeth all the time, but Watson isn't one of them. They haven't entertained trade talks and have made it abundantly clear that they won't be trading him ATM. Could that change? Maybe if Deshaun holds out of team activities, which won't happen until after the draft... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get taking the time to see if you can fix it. But I don’t see how that should be a long process. You meet with him, talk it out but if he’s set on moving on then it should be known pretty early. I wouldn’t want this to hang over the team for 2 off seasons. And if some team offers 3 ones and then some now...that’s a pretty big gamble saying no and hoping for the same a year later.

They hired a D-list coach, Easterby is still there, they have no firsts to add to the roster, and Houston is such a disaster that it’d be hard to imagine any free agents signing there. There are no cards left to play to induce Watson to come back other than the fines, but at that point, the whole franchise will be in flames. With Caserio finally putting his neck out to take a GM job, why the hell would he invite this kind of drama into his life? Take the best package of picks for Watson and Watt, draft Zack Wilson, and start fresh. Makes no sense to hang onto Watson’s ankles out of some misguided sense of principles. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
