You guys ever think that maybe he’s telling the truth and he’s got the inside track here? He is a former player and I’m sure he’s got a lot of connections in the league still. He’s in the media. Maybe he’s telling the truth??

Already done lol

Based Garry

He’s obviously interested he agreed to meet with us on the first day he was available! And we haven’t been eliminated from the conversation yet.

That makes no sense bro. You could say the very same thing about every team he’s officially met with. If he just wanted NO he would have just met with NO. If he just wanted Cleveland he would have just met with them. See how what you’re saying makes no sense?

Ooof. Yeah Atlanta is a non-starter. Idgaf what they say on Twitter.

Agreed. He wasn’t trolling or even bothering anybody. He’s only posted like 14 times total. No a big deal IMO

You don’t know THE Garry Cobb?!

Who’s this Watkins you speak of?

Exactly. Watson doesn't hold anywhere close to all the power here. Houston could just sit him on the bench this year too. Hes gotta play ball with them regarding where he goes. If our offer is head and shoulders above anybody elses, we SHOULD get him.

LETS fuging GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That doesn't really make much sense. I guess they would then trade Baker somewhere else? Like here lol. You would think Houston would want Mayfield in the deal though. Its like a river of poo out there. Its impossible to know whats true.

LOL I get you hate the guy, but Rhule is far from the worst coach in NFL history. fuging Hue Jackson went 0-32 or some poo like that. Calm down.

LOL why is that? Everybody believes the "hes going to Saints" or "hes going to Falcons" tweets from random people. Why not us? And the vast majority of the chatter out there has him ending up in Charlotte, whatever thats worth.

Exactly. Apparently Houston is more than willing to just let Watson sit on the bench for another year and eat his salary. They're not going to take pennies on the dollar just because he wants to go somewhere like Atlanta. So, that no trade clause aint all its cracked up to be. He could say "I will not accept a trade anywhere but Atlanta" and Houston could say "Have fun playing Safety on the Practice Squad for the next 4 years".

They keep saying that a decision is likely to come tomorrow - at least thats the prevailing theory now. And the Houston media and the Charlotte media all believe that Carolina is the leader right now.

Dont believe the hype dude. See my post just up in this page. On WFNZ they just explained why Atlanta has pretty much no chance. Houston will just hold on to Watson and sit him again next year if he tries to force his way to Atlanta for pennies on the dollar.

On Kyle Bailey right now they're talking about Atlanta's chances and they're pretty much in agreement with what we are saying here. 1. It would look REAAAAALLLY bad for Atlanta to restructure the best QB they've ever had and then a week later send him to Houston. 2. They have an atrocious defense with no people to trade to Houston. 3. They have hardly any cap space. 55 million dollar dead cap hit. 55 million dollars. The consensus seems to be that its a huge bluff, and Atlanta has a gigantic uphill battle on multiple fronts if they truly want Watson. Seem to think that this is a bluff to drive up the price for us and the Saints. They also just said to keep an eye on Terron Armstead coming to Carolina if we do land Watson. We could have a great o line all of a sudden. If there is a God out there PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN!

Nope. Old, fake news. Already been confirmed to be false.

Can you give us anything else that would help us trust what you're saying right now? Because I really, really want to believe.

OK, well the reason they restructured him is because he has an insanely high cap hit coming up. Either way its bad for them.

They would and they would have to eat one helluva huge dead cap hit. You cant restructure a guy with a gigantic cap hit and then cut or trade him like the next week. Then they would have to absorb Watsons money, which even with a huge new contract it wouldn't be small.

I don't believe that at all.
