Not trade him to whoever you want. I think it’s a mess because it should have never come to this for them. He’s the face of their franchise and likely will be forever. Him wanting out kinda puts it all into perspective for just how bad it’s gotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's just odd that they realize that need to start over and cut him when Watt the professional he is, never "forced" his way out. Yet Watson who wants out they wont let go.

This is probably the one good thing Texas did this off season. Watt was too expensive to keep so Houston cuts him early so he can latch on somewhere else sooner rather than later. I would not mind him on the Jets for a reasonable deal if he wants to keep playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag68Sid87 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I would love Watt here. But if we don't land Watson (and I don't think we will), I don't see Watt coming here. Marlon Mack is talented, but I am worried about spending FA dollars on a guy with his durability issues. I know RBs all lack durability for the most part, but that is why it is important to find guys who are more durable than others. I'd still rather draft an RB to be our starter because there would be less tread on the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not mind a backfield of Johnson, Mack and 3rd rookie like Williams, Gainwell etc. Perine and Guerreiro on the PS as backups. Not too shabby IMO.

He's coming off an Achilles injury as well, so that will lower his price. That Achilles injury is the only injury he's really ever had. So not sure how he has durability issues.

ekill08x Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Would LOVE Marlon Mack. He would be a great back for us and the type of back that would thrive in the outside zone. Watt is not a fit for this team. Hes an aging declining DE that is not nearly the type of speedy athletic outside rusher we want to play the wide 9. Not to mention we are a completely rebuilding situation, we need to keep adding youth and speed, not aging vets that wont help us much. I love JJ Watt, but he should not even be a thought to be brought here and he shouldnt think about us either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resources need to be spent elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will being playing more of a base 4-3. So we can have bigger DEs... but Watt still doesn’t really give us what we need. I don’t think he’s even considering us or us even considering him unless we get Watson and we become a contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. I think he would want Pitt. and JD wants to get younger and faster. I still think he is a decent 4-3 5T but he is on the downside of a stellar career.

But it just doesn’t make sense for him or us. We get Watson and become more of a win now team. Then it could be entertained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreen420 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Why on earth would Watt even think of signing here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doumeyer Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) Did anybody read this clown Max Goodman who wrote on the Jets site today about his proposed trade for the Jets It is so stupid i won't even write down the details of this insane three way trade. Why would the Jets even put his blog on their website. This was under the site NY JETS news Edited February 14, 2021 by doumeyer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was a deal involving those two there is no way the team giving up Wilson wouldn't demand Watson and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
