  1. Let me say this (or type this, to be accurate): I am so certain that Tepper is behind this, not Rhule, and he is tired of looking like an idiot. Hired Rhule, they brought in Bridgewater, Darnold, Cam---paid CMC a ton to sit on IR, etc. I think we are getting Watson and I think Tepper is going to go full retard to do it. So talk about the draft is a bitter process for me to consider right now. Day 3 maybe. CONSOLATION PRIZE: I would say this--for those of you, like me, who do not want Watson because it will take a lot to get him and because he is an accused sex maniac--only about half of the NFL's first rounders don't bust. So if you are looking at three firsts, think of it as 1.5 studs. Look at our own roster--Thompson, CMC, Brown, Burns, Horn---I mean, there is not a ton of production there--significant production, but how many pro bowlers? 1.
  2. Hell, you can have 1 thread for all things Watson but the Huddle bottom feeders get a hold of it and they start personally attacking posters instead of offering relevant news and fact-based insights and derail the thread--the Watson thread is 37 pages and nothing has happened--that is not news on there-it is mostly nonsense. When I last read it, they were attacking someone's opinion by going after his background---wtf? I think a better policy is to simply include Watson's name in the thread and if you do not want more Watson banter, do not click. About this thread---I think Rhule is not behind this and his status as a coach is not something Tepper is that concerned about. If they met, Rhule probably said, "You can't win in this league without a QB." Tepper said, "Done."
  3. Hard to say--they played the C at G a lot or at C flanked by two mouth-breathing doorknob humpers. The LT, as a rookie, played 4 OL positions and looked a bit lost a lot. The RG was on Jenny Craig's deluxe plan and they refused to play him for most of the season. Our LG is most famous for surrending the hit that ruined Burrow's rookie season. He was the weakest link on a weak unit in Cincy. So we really do not know what we have, and Rhule all but admitted that at the combine when he talked about BC--the guy who he has claimed to be a G due to his short arms---playing LT. Moton balled.
  4. which leads us to Rhule's comments about Brady at the combine---
  5. You are right--our OL always seems to have multiple question marks--in this case right now, we'd have 4--can Elf handle center? BC at LT, Brown at G? ???? at RG?
  6. There was a shady attorney involved in this-- full disclosure--I was born in Columbia when my father was playing Football for the Gamecocks--so I am not a homer supporting a Tiger.
  7. Here is a good read from OTC- The COST of trading for Watson https://overthecap.com/the-cost-of-trading-for-deshaun-watson/
  8. If he can make a LT out of BC, a decent C out of Elflein, then we need 1-2 guards. Can he develop Jordan? I doubt he is more than a backup. D. Brown? There could be a RG there.
  9. This is going to be like that Hershel Walker to Minnesota trade--the one that built a dynasty--in Dallas.
  10. Forgot about them. They have experience with all-pro QBs who have been accused of sexual assault.
  11. I am under the impression that his contract gives him the power to veto any trade if he does not like it.
  12. Watson will want to go to Tampa Bay or New Orleans or maybe Indy, but the Texans will want to trade with the Panthers or Seahawks.

    the issue about willis is on tepper's wrist. how much time has he given rhule? if 22 is the year he must produce, they will sell the farm for the prized cow (watson). (Just don't try to milk that cow--it gets him in trouble.)
  14. I am trying to work out the big picture--and the more I try, the more I don't like it. The Lions had a good QB for years and sucked--is that the goal?
  15. I know--they will (probably) have to trade some big contracts to make this work--Thompson? CMC?
  16. I dont mind the 3 first rounders--I mind the 3 first rounder plus a top player--however, without a QB you are nothing, and Watson puts us in hunt right now. We are going to go in strong---it could be Burns, 3 firsts and a second. We will not have a pick this year until the fourth round and we have little cap room. So Watson will have to play behind another makeshift OL again--I think we sign a LG, but the rest are on the roster (Christensen, LT, Elflein C, maybe Brown at RG---and Moton. That is an improvement, fwiw, on paper.
  17. If we trade for Watson, your Offensive Line: LT Christensen LG Free Agent (Norwell?) C Elflein RG D. Brown RT Moton
  18. You have to wonder if Tepper's loyalty to Watson throughout this ordeal will not be something that endears Watson to the Panthers a bit. I still say: 1. Tampa Bay 2. Carolina 3. New Orleans I feel that he will be in the NFC South
  19. They are going to do this--and we will not be able to stop the opposition, but we will have a qb on IR.
  20. Doesn't NC State offer a bachelor's degree in this?
  21. He is a popular player with the teammates---everyone likes him---locker room guy.
  22. SO we pass on fields and go after Liberty's starting QB. Seriously, I get it. Willis has a lot of tools, just not sure he will adjust to the NFL as we all hope. Fools gold?
  23. do not be surprised to see him playing mostly slot WR wherever he goes.
