Watson to Fins/Phins trade speculation.

If these are the reasons that Deshaun Watson wants out of Houston, I don't blame him one bit. As a matter of fact, I respect the kid even more. 

It looks like he's going to play hardball and flex a little muscle! The Miami Dolphins may be in that equation!

Just to speculate, I'd say it would depend on how Houston views Tua.  If Houston thinks that Tua is a franchise guy - with no doubts - then I suspect you could make that deal by swapping Tua and Watson, with Miami also throwing in one of their first rounders this year.  Salary cap swap would be good for Houston (who are currently 20 million over), and Miami wouldn't struggle with it much either.

They could probably do worse than Tua. He's still learning, but definitely has major upside in my opinion.

There's a Patriots connection between new Texans GM Nick Caserio and Dolphins coach Brian Flores to consider too.

Miami has:

a young and talented team

no state income tax

only have the Bills as a threat to the division

plenty of draft capital

tons of cap space

he’d instantly be the best QB they had since Marino

 

oh and it’s Miami. Young, handsome and a multimillionaire

That's a big question mark to me.  In watching Tua this year, he just didn't look like he had the velocity for the big boy NFL throws and his mechanics looked awkward.  He looks a lot like a left handed Mac Jones to be honest.  Watch their tape back to back sometime.  It's a little eerie.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
