UGH....

Stop suggesting any type of trade for him, AT ALL.

There are WAY too many holes to fill, and spending all our capitol is not a realistic option.

A lot of you keep complaining "He had no team around him"...it will be even worse if you trade the farm for him and bring him here. 

I'm not sure you understand what having a QB of Deshauns caliber means for a team. We could draft top 5 for the next 5 years and not match it

but a All Pro QB for year's to come and wide open salary cap. Not sure the issue here. This is an exact situation where a GM proves he is worth the big bucks.

It’s not a wide open salary cap with the contract he signed. Look at my post right below your post that I jusy quoted and tell How you would fill these holes with his contract this year or in the future along with Teddys 20+ million and be able to compete (because that’s the entire goal).

We have about 15 major holes to fill while Watson takes a Cam caliber beating, I am just not sold.

Have patience and work the draft will lots of accumulated capitol, as there is plenty of talent to uncover without having to used top 5 rated talent, which isn't always guranteed.

This team has some odd fans. Get a top 5 QB? No. Let’s build through the draft and hope we hit on a QB! Yay! Let’s also win a meaningless game! Hurray! 
 

DeShauns worth the next 3 first rounders if I’m honest.

The salary cap would be wide open, especially after this year. And as I posted in another message on this thread, we wouldnt keep Watson at the current contract, we'd extend. Every single team who would trade for watson would do this. Pending on what players were dealt in this deal, we could create a massive cap gap. Also, the cap opens up extremely after this year.

Fine.

Trade a king's ransom for him.

Let him take the beating of the lifetime with a shitty o-line.

Let the defense suck even worse for years to come with crummy CB play, weak pass rush, and blown assignments.

Hell lets just become the Cowboys by doing dumb poo like this.

Sounds like a great plan, you've sold me hook, line, and sinker :eyeroll:

Here is a list of teams in the 2020 draft WHO DID NOT HAVE A FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK:

1. Bills
2. Steelers
3. Colts
4. Rams
5. Bears

:thinking:

 4 out of 5 teams who made bold moves to get the player they wanted by offering a first round pick..... had winning seasons and ended up in the playoffs. You see a player worth the risk, you take the risk.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F  
    • You gonna make me post Stank before every game?  I kid, I kid. 
    • Final Avs 9 Wild 6. Defense never entered the building lol.
