Given all the pressure on that front office, they can't accept a Hopkins like deal. Watson would have to go for twice a Stafford. The number 2 pick alone is worth more than everything the Rams traded. Houston is going to receive backlash because everyone seems to just quote x number of 1st round picks without factoring how high or low those picks might be. 1 2 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post David Harris Posted January 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2021 I think the Rams won this trade big time. To unload Goff’s contract and markedly improve the Most important position in sports on a team that’s ready to win now, with the leagues number one defense, two top receivers; all that for a couple late first rounders- I love this for LA. 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undertow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 People need to understand Goffs contract was almost untradeable which is why they gave up so much....this will not change what the Texans get for Watson. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockwave Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 That Goff contract they will either be stuck with or have to eat a part of. 45m over the next two years is a Pro Bowl stud like Brandon Scherff. Think about how good that draft pick has to be to get 45m of value for it? Like a 8-9m a year of production over 5 years just to break even. if Your Douglas would you even do 1.2 for 1.7 and both Rams First ?

undertow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 If the Jets don't take a QB I wonder what the price would be for Detroit to trade from 7 to 2 and take a QB? Goff is basically a salary dump I'm sure they are gonna groom a QB behind him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Jet Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Stafford finally had a decent head coach to play for. Has been a long time between drinks for him. No excuses for the Rams to not go all the way now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 1 hour ago, JoJoTownsell1 said: No, no, no. You don't understand the difference between the #2 pick in a draft his year and future late first round picks. Not even in the same universe. As I said before, the Jets would NEVER trade the #2 pick this year for ALL those picks the Rams just traded. People need to stop looking at the NUMBER of picks being traded and factor in the position and year of those picks. For example, the Rams #1 pick next year is likely worth an early 2nd round this year (give or take). No, no, no. I understand its value.

They have #7, #41, #72 and #88 in the first three rounds this year. Two firsts in each of the next two years. They have enough picks to make an interesting offer. The problem is they are completely tied to Goff for the next two years so it might be a year early for them to dump all those picks. Better to wait until next year when they have two firsts to work with probably. I also think this precludes them from entertaining a trade for Darnold as well. They almost have to play Goff this year at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupz27 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I wouldn’t trade the #2 pick for that package they got for Stafford not in a million years. This trade compensation does not affect Watson, there isn’t a 1st round pick until next year, two 2’s one 3rd and an abomination of a player on an abomination of a contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undertow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 If the Colts were offering their 1 straight up this year that would have been a much better deal IMO...it's sounds like a lot of compensation but being stuck with Goff is almost not worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Jet Fan Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Even if someone offered 4 1sts in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Jets #2 and #23 trumps that as far as value. And it's really not even close. Tonight's deal changes nothing as far as Watson. Actually, convinces me we can absolutely get a #1 for Darnold. Even if it's throwing a pick back or in 2022 or 2023 which.JD has shown an affinity for with McClendon and Williamson deals. If asking price was 4 1sts in successive years, I'd gladly do that. #2 trumps all as far as I'm concerned. Future picks always speculative. Who thought Texans would have 3rd pick before year began?
