Shocking.

Watch them go the super bowl... haha unreal

Can’t land Watson, I’d like this idea. I’m not a fan of the QBs that will be there at 8. I think trading back and picking up future capital will be a good call especially with the no combine this year.

The 40mil is the total from Last April to this April, it includes the 29mm. As for going after the money, as long as Watson shows up to the required events, the Texans can’t do anything to take the money back. Watson would have to sit out and not show up.

He made 29 million dollars last year. He makes a full forty million if he is on the roster in April. Doesn’t even have to play a down. Thanks the structure of the contract. As I said before it’s an awful contract. also, Watson isn’t retiring so they can’t treat it like retirement.

He made 73 million by just signing it. He doesn’t have to play. The Texans can’t control that. It’s a bad contract for the franchise, real bad.

They do have a choice... offer free trials, locked articles, and exclusive content. even better... gamify your content so that users feel they are progressing their experience with the variety of additional content. give your user a reason to spend their money outside of getting the news.

They lock their content behind a paywall. In my opinion that’s not a good way to acquire new readers In today’s media.

To be fair... there were a dozen outlets stating that the Watson trade was just a rumor. News isnt news until happens. I'd rather spin my wheels here on something that has a chance of happening and franchise changing, then talk about Brees retiring or Brady sucks. Hahah

I dont think he will have a choice unless there is desperation by the trading partner. You'd be led by an incompetent FO if they keep the contract as is. Its a bad contract for a franchise.

Whatever you say man. Can we move on now?

watch them trade Thomas and Ramcyzk 2 firsts and Hill

@mrcompletely11

just search the forum man. It was a link someone led with on a thread. I shouldn't have to disprove your disbelief. I am sure someone else here knows what I am talking about bc it was posted last week. There was a screenshot and a link.

very little we discuss on this message board is concrete. You take what you are given and you have a conversation about it.

Huddler posting a link to a website that has been credited to be correct and leaked out accurate information on this Watson situation should not be discredited because I came across it here. You can choose to ignore it, that is fine. However, there is a reason our name is popping up all over the place as a team tied to the Watson debacle.

I wont say you are wrong, but I will say I highly doubt the Texans will sit on Watson. Texans really do have little leverage in this situation. Your hypothetical works here, but will not work in the real life situation that is occurring. Watson WILL NOT be on the Texans roster come June.

this was shared earlier this week on the huddle in another thread. There is a list that has already being discussed by people within Watson's group. It was the same site the reported that watson wanted out weeks before the official word. 1. MIA 2. CAR 3. SF 4. Mystery team

so will the cost of players. This is a league wide consensus, that the players will not cash in as big as previous years if the cap goes down.

2nd round picks dont trade down for 5th rounders.... 2nd round picks trade for future first rounders, and additional 2nd rounders. I think you are thinking inside your own box, and not using real life examples. Here is one: EVERETTE BROWN

This is def a possible outcome. If I was Nick Caserio... i'd quit though. That completely hamstrings him from being able to do his job. Also, other players would ask for their release or trade as well if they chose to do that.

We are apparently on his shortlist. That's what im operating off of.

you could still do this without a first round pick.

There is 2 NFC teams and 1 AFC team that watson has on his list. The Jets thing is interesting bc they should be a dark horse more than a likelihood. We have no idea if Watson wants to play there. There are rumblings that he wanted to play with Saleh, so there is that. I dont see the Texans trading him to AFC as a first choice, bc they are automatically eliminating a playoff spot by doing that.

texans really dont have much room to play hardball. This is a very unfortunate situation for HOU and their fans. If they were choosing to trade Watson, they could potentially get four 1st round picks or not trade at all, but since this is driven by watson, there is no outcome but a trade.
