How many teams have an opening and are realistically in position and in the market for a QB? 8-10? How many of those teams would he go to? 3-4? The rumors of him going for 3-4 1sts I think are overblown. He’s going to go for much lower I think. When’s that shoe drop? He will require at least three first round picks. Stafford costed two. Wentz one. Most likely he costs 4 and more compensation. I don’t think those reports are overblown at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh I like Watson but I'm not giving up 3-4 first round picks maybe 2...The Rams got bent over they knew they couldn't do much else. He reminds me too much of Carson, holding the ball, some spotty mechanics, hero ball. Dinged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 2 and change gets it done maybe. I’m most likely wrong I just don’t see how a guy like that hits the trade market and he isn’t dealt immediately for some absurd compensation. Maybe it’s a game of chicken but going through the league, I don’t find more than a few teams really able and attractive enough to make sense for everyone involved.

He has a NTC - that's why it's taking so long, he's in control of everything that happens. I feel like if he didn't have the NTC he would've already been dealt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much like Carson if Watson wants to go to Miami and the Dolphibs know this like Indy, they don't have to over pay. All the Stafford deal did, was make every other deal afterwards look Rediculous in comparison. Great job by Detroit being the first domino to fall. Be shocked if Miami gives up more the Two 1st rd picks which will include the Texans original #3 overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was in a worse situation than Wentz this year and completed 70% of his passes 4800 yards 30+ TD’s and only 7 INTs. He is an absolute stud who is just coming into his best years. He is a different beast completely if he were to be traded. Guys like that don’t get traded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a little different because we pick at 6, that's worth two later firsts. So theoretically it could look better than the massive amount of firsts people think Watson would get. We certainly have the ammo to do it if they move him. It's just like, what will he have around him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is that Carson was a QB who played horribly and got benched and had a risky future. Watson is a guaranteed stud who any team in the NFL outside of the Chiefs would love to have. The Texans should absolutely not trade him and play full on hardball with him. He is under contract for 5 more years. The situations aren’t even remotely comparable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe in the bevy of young WRs, a really good young RB and TE duo with a lot of cap space in the next couple years then this may look attractive to someone. He’s only 25. He’s got a couple years to possibly reset before really competing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ_Eaglesfan Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 The only thing the Eagles should do is roll with Hurts this year and go full tank for the first pick next year. Get rid of all our bad contracts and start over with a new QB in 2022. If we draft well(fire Howie) we are a potential playoff team in 2022.

EaglesPeteC Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I’m all for giving Hurts a shot. He’s fun to watch and easy to cheer for. If a QB they like drops to 6, it would make sense not to pass either though. Trading up for one might feel yikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play hardball with Watson, conduct detrimental to the team dock his pay accordingly because he refuses to suit up as a Texans. That accomplishes what to make the 2021 Texans better? Does it enhance his trade value for 2022? Or make him look like petulant child for sitting out? Watson has ALL of the leverage, Texans have None!

So if they can get him without killing the franchise it's worth pushing for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
