It wasn't as bad under Rivera, but stuff definitely did still get leaked. Just not as consistently.

Some amateur front office people and coaching staff that treat the NFL like college.

Hypothetically. I don't think that would be conducive to his ultimate goals though, which is getting out of Houston at all costs.

I just block him. I really don't care lmao People are absurd if they think I make money off of this. For the record, I was not high on Fields or Mac Jones.

Panthers have one of the leakiest teams in the NFL. Think about what came out about the Russ to Denver trade...like nothing. The only thing I knew was he was getting traded, but I had no idea Denver would be it. Carolina has multiple people in the building that leak stuff constantly lmao

I haven't heard anything new.

At least 3. That kid is great.

I don't think this conversation is very productive.

I don't believe you.

Don't be so sure. We are front runners.

Lol definitely not, at least for me.

It's not like Tepper does not have legal experts on his payroll. There is a reason all of this is getting leaked out to me, Florio, Alexander, etc right now. No chance they believe he is being convicted, this wouldn't be a conversation we would be having if they did. Though it has become kind of obvious Tepper is blinded by his own hubris a bit, as he went into the owners meeting believing they would 100% get Watson. I certainly hope that is not the case. They already desperately backtracked last year by having Person (I believe it was Person anyway) leak some BS about how "we are not interested at this time". It would be outright embarrassing if they had to do that again. One thing is for sure, the leagues perspective on us being an absolutely shitshow is completely on point.

I'm not in favor of obtaining Watson on the first place. My opinion on it is entirely irrelevant lol of course I think that package is ridiculous.

Obviously that deal wouldn't be on the table if he was charged. We offered three 1st round picks + other picks + player at the deadline with zero clarity on Watsons situation. If his situation clears up and there other other bidders, why wouldn't we offer more?

I expect us to outbid just about anyone. Three 1sts, next year's 2nd, two 3rds, Jeremy Chinn/Jaycee Horn, and Derrick Brown/Brian Burns. I could definitely see that package happening. That still might not be enough. I have said Tepper is all in on this, I'm not exaggerating.

Wouldn't surprise me.

This happened all the way back in October.

Steelers are in no way interested in Watson.

People also need to keep in mind there is a legitimate chance Watson could catch a felony. If that happens that will obviously change the landscape of this discussion.

There are other competitors. Anything could happen. I hesitate to say "done deal".

They will know before we do. I feel like interested teams probably have a good idea what will happen anyway.

Friday will tell us more.

We are definitely front runners and this is definitely coming to an end.

Yeah that adds up.
