ronjon1990 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I've never seen so much intrigue over a 3rd string Safety. A year and some change ago, he cried crocodile tears at being gifted the 2nd biggest contract in NFL history. I really wouldn't mind if I never saw him play again at this point. I'm just beyond over him. Just Jake Plummer his @$$ and send him wherever and let him go play handball or something. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iknowcool Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Reporter: "Will you contact the Texans about Deshaun Watson before the trade deadline?" Rhule: "I understand why you guys have to ask, obviously I can't talk about any player under contract or anything like that, so I couldn't answer that question anyway. But I'm here today to talk about yesterday and this week." That is about as much as you will ever hear any HC confirm his team's intentions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't really noticed him much, which is a good thing I suppose. Everyone on the defense has played well, so kind of hard to stick out. And Keith Taylor has stepped in and been very good the last two games (Henderson was inactive last week, but has played in the other games since coming here) He did give up a touchdown to Coop in the Dallas game, but it was very good coverage by him. Just a better throw and even better catch by Amari. Edited October 25, 2021 by iknowcool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me about it. 95% of why I want this to happen is so I can escape the weekly talk on Watson here in local media. I couldn't care less about the compensation, I have zero faith that Nick Caserio will do anything worthwhile with the picks - in fact, I'm certain he will find a few more N'Keal Harry/Sony Michel types of players, complete busts and disasterous players that won't even make it through their rookie contracts. I just want this done so I don't have to hear about it anymore. It's been a LONG 10 months, I'm so tired... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iknowcool Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I just realized the Texans play the Dolphins on Nov 7th Now wouldn't that be something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's at MIA, so far less intriguing than if it was @ HOU. Also means MIA & HOU don't play each other for another 3 more years, barring them ending up same spot in their division (since this is their year to face each other division-wise).

If Watson actually plays in Mia I think we can write in Jets vs. Texans next year (I’m giving Jax the win with their 2nd game later this year). Rapsheet reporting Watson would NOT go to commissioners list if traded. That’s huge for his chances at getting dealt. For a team like MIA this almost certainly keeps them out of the cellar in the AFCE. Jax - Hou 2 decides 4th in the AFCS later this year.

Given the Sam Darnold benching, I'm actually putting Carolina in the drivers' seat. They don't have as much capital in terms of draft picks, but I've always assumed the asking price Caserio had in mind was never going to be met. I'm also getting a distinct feeling that those above Caserio (Easterby/Cal... and specifically Janice) want Watson out of the building, period. They have been steadily benching a few guys for no real logical reason - Charles Ominehu, Lonnie Johnson and Zach Cunningham are a few of the best players on this team, but each has been demoted (Ominehu is the best pass rusher on the team, but has been a healthy scratch a few times this season). Excluding Cunningham (who is a bad fit for Locke's scheme) these guys are the best players at their spots by a pretty big margin... and they've all at some point shown support for Watson (pre-allegations and post-allegations). I think they're punishing pro-Watson players/staff as well as trying to isolate them from the "culture" and one move that will expedite this is getting Watson out of the building for good. I'm expecting the Texans will get much less for Watson than what Detroit got for Matt Stafford - there might be a few conditional firsts to look at, but it's going to be an underwhelming package, all things considered.

Given how aggressive Fitterer is as GM and how committed ownership there is to winning I don’t doubt Carolina would be aggressive. Will Watson agree to go there? Will that get in the way?

I think if going to Carolina was an issue, we would have heard about it by now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
