Watson not the only big name vet at QB that we're looking at?

People should definitely get it out of their minds that CMC wouldn't be potentially involved in the trade for Watson. Everything is on the table right now.

He won't be involved because nobody but Hurney would give CMC a contract like he has.  He's great but that contract makes him virtually untradable to any sane GM.  But stranger things have happened.  We would still be in the hook for the bonus money.  I just don't see any reasonable way you can pull it off.

I'll take anything over teddy

Which is this forums biggest problem. It’s not about last year or even this coming year, it’s the bigger picture.

Need to draft the next franchise QB and have patience.

Now thats interesting.  I would be totally fine with Stafford and the weapons we have on offense.  He could put up video game numbers in our system.

Would likely be a whole helluva lot cheaper than Watson as wel.

This. I don’t think we need a Watson caliber player to compete for a Lombardi with the weapons we have as long as we protect the QB and don’t become anemic on defense. This move makes a lot of sense.

Here would be my ideal power ranking of the options

1: Teddy, 8th this year, future first, and CMC for Watson 

2: Trade up to 2nd overall with #8, future first, and second this year. Draft Wilson

3: Trade a second rounder for Stafford 

Everyone keeps offering too little.  Jamal Adams went for two 1st, a safety.  Go look at the RG3 trade or the Mack trade.

Watson -  more like three 1st and a good player such as CMC or Burns, maybe a 2nd also or another player

2nd pick - Probably our next three 1st, RG3 was three 1st and and a 2nd.

Stafford - depending on where the team is picking, possible a 1st

And that is dumb as hell, just like when u thought Little should have been a first round pick for the Panthers.

Remember that Watson can tank his trade value with that no trade clause. It isn't a "free market" trade scenario

      Some Thoughts on Legette based upon an ex-scout's ranking him WR1 in the draft

      By strato · Posted

      Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.

      Front office/scouting staff changes

      For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.

      Every Xavier Legette target 2023

      I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
