Would you trade our first rounder for Deshaun?

Of course but that is nowhere near a realistic trade.

Yeah, any team in need of a QB would do backflips to trade their 1st rounder for Deshaun Watson with the Texans eating all the guaranteed money in his contract. There's never been an easier decision in NFL history. Even if I was the Jags sitting at #1 looking at Trevor Lawrence I'd STILL make that trade. Watson is a proven MVP caliber NFL QB. Lawrence is a great prospect. There's a big difference. Plenty of great prospects don't pan out.

Damn it, Igo. Look at the contract. He's untradable. The Texans can't eat that dead money and still field a roster. They're already $18M in the red going into next year.

"Take a look at the contract. Trading him would result in a cap charge of $21.6 million. The Herschel-sized haul of draft picks that a Deshaun Watson trade would generate would more than justify it." https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/01/07/will-deshaun-watson-ask-for-a-trade/

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
