I think that you have to absolutely try.  Franchise QBs don't grow on trees.  If there's a way to make it happen, you have to see.

Houston is a dumpster fire right now.  They traded their best WR last year, they have alienated their franchise QB, and they don't have a lot of team to build Watson.  They need to maximized their assets moving forward to rebuild the team.

It doesnt matter who it is, a qb coming out of college has huge question marks

when you're picking this high in the draft, the general operational mentality is that you're getting a player of Watson's caliber, the trade off for the latent uncertainty being that it costs nothing to acquire said player and responsibility falling on the shoulders of those who were given the job of developing the talent given to them if he fails

A 25 year old all-pro HOF track QB goes on the trade market once a decade at most, and more likely once a generation.

I don't ever recall it happening in my 25+ years of following NFL football. Jay Cutler getting traded from Denver to Chicago is the closest comparison I can recall off the top of my head and Cutler wasn't on Watson's level considering his turnover issues.

This is actually good point... you never seen this kind of thing.

Draft picks #7, #10, #24 and #199 of the remaining QBs in the playoffs.  Watson was a 12th pick.  So it comes down to skills, coaching and organizational decisions that determines a QBs success.  Yes, there are some busts, but many times guys drafted to be franchise QBs are let down by their organization rather than just not being all that good themselves.

edit: fine, I'll be nice, yeah, what fitz said

If you trade burns, suddenly jon snow guy has a really strong argument, this team has their QB but no means to build at the essential spots around him

You people aren’t willing to trade 

 

Vernon butler

shaq thompson 

kelvin Benjamin 

DJ Moore

CMC

Derrick Brown

brian burns

our 1st rounders from 2014-2020

Hate to burst bubbles, but CMC is the only one who is anywhere near watsons level.

 

DJ Moore is great, but people look at him a little too much through black and blue glasses

 

for Deshaun Watson?

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      Not totally inaccurate, haha Except that kid wasn't as excited as I was.  I was yelling louder, and more, and running around the room in circles until I almost passed out from exhausting and was trying to catch my breath for a good 10 minutes because I'm way too old to be doing that, LOLOL Oh, and I tweaked a muscle in my shoulder from all the punching the air I was doing too. For as awesome as that pick was for me, it really screwed me up for a few days between my shoulder and lost voice (Wrexham securing back-to-back-to-back promotions Saturday afternoon contributed to that though too).

      Full disclosure and the real reason.... I'll be seeing my Nephew in basically one month from today, and while I've gotten him stuff from my other teams the past year, I hadn't been willing to saddle him with Panthers stuff yet, that's now changed lol. So if the jersey would get to me before I see him, I'd get that and him his first Panthers onesie/shirt so I can get a picture of us together in them. If it wouldn't get to me by then, I'd just wait to get the one I prefer.  So yea, my rush is really just about trying to get a picture of myself in it with my Nephew in Panthers gear too.
