We drafted Cam in 2011. In 25 years as an organization we have had one elite young quarterback. You wanna wait another 20 or deal some players and pics to ensure it?

How many years will it take us to find an “in his prime” Top-2 quarterback. WR is overrated anyway. Robbie at #1 with DJ at #2 and CMC in the slot is an embarrassment of riches. But our quarterback sucks. If they want to include DJ in a Watson deal...I throw that card on the table without even thinking.

One other thing people aren’t talking about...the NFL is clearly starting to mimic the NBA. Superstars can go where they want now. And superstars attract other superstars. You trade for Deshaun, renegotiate that contract, and then next thing you know his friends (Hopkins, Watt, etc) want to play with him again. This is the new NFL. If a Lebron/Harden/Durant shows you love...you go ALL-IN and figure the details out later.

I don’t understand why so many people are saying this. Deshaun Watson is a Top-3 quarterback not even in his prime. DJ Moore is easily replaceable in the draft (even mid—round)...and is about to demand elite WR money. Burns is our most valuable asset, but to get an elite quarterback he is more than expendable. Hell, I’d trade both of them and next year’s first if they’d agree to take Teddy’s contract back. But I don’t think they’d do it without this year’s #8. For this particular player in this particular instance, I’m fine with selling the farm and trusting that our coaches can hit in the later rounds and free agency.
