If it costs us trading CMC to get watson, YOU DO IT.  As we have seen, even having a generational RB will at most get you a couple playoff appearances (See Minnesota and Tennessee).  You HAVE to have an elite level QB if you want to win a superbowl.

Just playing devils advocate here but Ryan Tannehill had the same 33td to 7 ints that Watson did this past season and has more playoff wins.

In theory if we do trade CMC + for Watson then the + becomes a lot less.  Our 2nd rounder this year and next? 

I don't think Houston gets a 1st rounder if we trade CMC to them....heck it may be they ship back a 3rd rounder to us in such a deal.

We have to remember we are probably losing Samuel so it would be nice to be able to keep CMC to replace what Samuel did in the offense this past year.

I say go for it and trade some 1st rounders, some 2nd rounders, maybe throw Teddy in there if we can and maybe get a 3rd or 4th round pick in future drafts.

Jones tweeted about us getting Watson for 2 first round picks and cmc.

 

you really think that’s all it would take to get him?

i doubt it. If that’s all then yes do it.

Jones actually tweeted polls about this for at least the Dolphins, probably other teams too (I think for the Dolphins, it was Tua plus 2 1st rounders).  I think he's gauging fan interest, not using any actual knowledge of what's being discussed between the teams. I think it's going to take more that that. At least another second, and very possibly another 1st, to get it done, unless the Texans management are complete morons.

I get that and understand where your coming from, but IMO its not a great comparison because of the fact that we've seen what Tannehill can do with a less than stellar roster in Miami, and at his peak there, 4200 yards, 27 tds, 12 INTS, thats a far stretch from the season that Watson just put out with a crappy roster in 4800 yds, 33 tds, 7 INT.  Tannehill had a good season, but without Henry as a threat, his playaction which made up a lot of his big pass plays, his stats would look dramatically different, and most likely look a lot like the seasons he had in Miami.

    • Very good points.  I also think you reach an age where your enthusiasm wanes, you quit learning and start relying on experience, and you lose touch with the younger generations of players--it happens.  And you are right about Bryce.  He is frustrated and he took a ton of heat--I can't imagine where he was mentally, but I have some idea.   Bryce is very smart-he needs to beat teams with his mind more than his arm.  He could not play chess when everyone around him was a confused pawn.  This season, he will use more motion to tip coverages and he will use more pre-snap reads.  Than means he should not be breaking the huddle with 12 seconds on the play clock and rushing to get the play off--there are so many things that can impact a QB's play, and there are many signs that he was provided the least possible chance to succeed.  In my view, this is his rookie season.  Last year was a fire drill.
    • I also find it curious we decided to practice at home instead of up in NY… not sure I would have made that decision. Need a feel for the ice and boards. Maybe we’ll do a very limited morning skate tomorrow. 
    • It really was crazy. The NFL hype on him was nuts. And I think for our FO, we basically outsmarted ourselves. Some of that has to do with Tepper going against the grain and wanting show how much of a genius he is. Stroud should have been the guy. I thought it might end up being an NFL horror story of sending an undersized kid to get crushed as first overall. I'll give him this though he is tough as nails.  This season will give us a better measure of where he's at, I think. I was hoping he'd come back a little bigger muscle wise though.
