Players don't want to play for that ownership. And they staged a GM search, ignored recommendations, & simply went back to Caserio bc they couldn't get him last year.

I think the dude wants out.  Seriously, I wonder what his value is.  Could be super crazy high but it's damn fun to think about.

To bad Bill O’Brien isn’t still there. He’d trade him for a 2nd round pick. 

yea this would be our chance to strike gold if BOB was still there. He'd legit probably trade Watson for a 1st and Teddy B and like a third rounder. 

easiest trade ever.

I mean they are really under no obligation to trade him considering he just signed that extension. Only thought I had is that they have zero first or second round picks this year. IF he asks for a trade, perhaps they just just totally say fug it and take a kings ransom of picks to start their rebuild

It may be that he's unhappy with the GM hire (though we honestly don't even know if this is football related) but even if that's so, it'll be the head coach choice that more directly affects him.

I wouldn't expect to see anything happen until that's settled.

      So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
