Not even TLaw can save the Jacksonville franchise from... But I mean even if that is the case I'd take 2nd still over having to deal with Luck and Watson twice a year each. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what Houston gets in return, that franchise is dead to me going forward. I don't care what they choose to do with those draft picks, I'm out. While certainly nowhere near the same situation, I can say I experienced high levels of frustration after we drafted Young and basically locked McNair out. It was a crappy period for the franchise, and it took us a while to dig ourselves out. Things may be bleak now, but eventually it'll get better. Still... I understand where you are coming from, and I understand why you feel the way you feel. Watson, in his prime... damn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Texans aren't trying to be Patriots South, they're trying to be Lakewood West (Joel Osteen's church). They're not interested in fielding a competent football team at this point. Tebow's only 33. He's got some good years left in him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to find out his desired destinations...THEN we can speculate what would be a fair offer. Jets can likely make the best offer (Darnold, #2, additional 1sts, 2nds, etc) Actually it does. Texans have him locked in for years and he’s a huge cap hit in a trade. Unless they get what they want, they probably will just start fining him if he doesn’t report.

So Easterby is going to value Tua, his strong faith, and his strong traditional family, as at least 2 first rounders, right? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"How does Jack Easterby feel about Mormonism" is not something I expected to be asking when trying to figure out NFL offseason trades, but it may literally decide whether the Dolphins or Jets get Watson. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchFalcon Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I don't know why you are all judging this Jack Easterby guy so harshly. He's clearly not building a good football team but maybe there is a very valid reason for that? Maybe NRG got haunted and he needs a lot of faith to exorcise the ghosts? Maybe Trevor Lawrence is literally the devil and the only chance of winning a game against the Jags will be to pray him away? Or maybe having so many nice people join the organization will make it a really nice place to work for the players and while they might not be winning many games they will really enjoy going to work every day, that has got to count for something as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just comes down to who the Texans like the most among Tua, Fields, and Wilson. Or I guess it just comes down to who is the most religious out of that group - seems like Tua and Wilson have the leg-up there. Not that anything the Texans are doing any of this rationally but if they decide they don't want to trade him within the conference, San Fran looks like the strongest bet especially considering Watson has a no trade clause. But that deal probably hinges on whether Caserio is a Jimmy G booster from his New England days, and whether the Niners are willing to part with Bosa. I think this is clearly the Jets. Like you said Wilson is going to present a “strong philosophical” background for the Texans to get behind and the Jets have more value they can provide IMO. I’m interested to see what Watson goes for though, personally I think it’ll be #2, #27, and a 2022 1st. I’m sure some will claim that’s undervaluing Watson and it probably is, but the Watson trade clause presenting only select teams will limit their ability to drive up the market as well as the fact that them having a top 2 pick means they get an immediate franchise level QB prospect to boot. I think for both the Texans and the Jets that makes more sense than trading Watson for 4/5 1sts from a team like NE, SF, etc. The Jets can give them an opportunity at quickly replacing their franchise QB with another as well as obtaining additional resources. The value the Jets deal presents, even with only 3 picks I think would be the Texans best bet. What’s more if the Dolphins truly believe in Tua than I just don’t know how they would offer more value than the Jets here. You’d think they’d trust the process here and simply use that #3 selection for Penei Sewell than trading away Tua, #3, #18, and a 1st. At some point it seems like you’d think they’d have to tap out and just trust the process. Edited January 28, 2021 by diamondbull424 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Side note - Deshaun Watson is going to be a participant in the Pro Bowl stuff this weekend. He'll probably get microphones in his face asking about this. The Pro Bowl might have just become must-watch TV. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, can't take you up on the offer - I'm leaning towards just going teamless. I get to enjoy good football - that's a great thing, IMO. I did it once before when the Oilers left town. Time to wear that mask again. I refuse to support this inept led organization. Brothers in arms 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
