How many Superbowls has Deshaun won, or been to? Those players minus Christian have been to, or went to one.

How many Super Bowls had Peyton Manning been to 4 years into his career? 

How many Super Bowls did Dan Marino win? 

How many did Warren Moon even appear in? 

Deshuan Watson is special.  Always has been.  From the first game he stepped on the field vs Florida St as a freshman to now. 

Now, can we debate if cost is worth it? Sure.  But he is exactly what teams are looking for.

Two 1’s and Bridgewater.

Anything more is just too much.

I think history shows the team giving up the farm for a player loses and the team getting all the picks usually wins  (Saints with Ricky, Vikings with Herschel)

I'd go two 1's and CMC as my no higher mark. 

and as a franchise I would quit paying RBs.   A lesson we never have learned.

May take three firsts, a current player and maybe a second to get Watson. To put this into perspective, would you trade away players that could become three pro-bowlers and a good role player for their one QB? 
 

So, that is a Luke, Ryan Khalil, Christian McCaffery and Shaq Thompson for Deshaun Watson. 
 

As much as I would like Watson here, I do not believe that I would make this deal.

Or its Kelvin Benjamin, Shaq Thompson and Vernon Butler for Deshaun Watson. 

Can cherry pick first rounders all you want. Bottom line is the draft is literally an unknown. Watson however, is not. 

 

Also Ryan Kalil* was a 2nd rounder, not that it matters much in the pretense of this argument. His brother was a top 5 pick though so if you want to include him we can.

If we're high on his list, I wonder what guy we have to ship to HOU could put the trade over for the Texans.

They have needs all over.  I would make Shaq available in this. 

2021 1st

2021 3rd

2022 1st

2024 1st (We keep 2023)

Shaq Thompson

Pot sweetener: Donte Jackson

--

We send Teddy off in another manner/form.

We get:

Deshaun Watson

2022 2nd (They're going to be awful, this could easily be the 33-39th pick, same as a late first)

Fitbit said in this introductory pressure that there's not that much difference between picks 20 to 40. Seattle traded back so much, he's used to not having a 1st round pick. He could make it work.

Watson is 25. You've got a decade of high level QB play, maybe more, plus all the marketing to the Clemson fans you thought Trevor would bring the franchise. 

Absolutely worth the deal Barnwell outlined.

I think that's an incentive to seek a 2nd rounder from HOU in 2022 or 2023 if we're going in on this.  They're going to be baaaad and that pick might as well be #33-39. If it takes (3) 1st rounders, then they should throw in a 2022 2nd.

A sprained watson acl puts us back in the top 10.  

I once watched Watson on a torn ACL complete 74% of his passes with 4 TDs to destroy his rival SEC opponent. 

Some kind of mythical creature, he is half man, half god, half possible Centaur, but I’m not sure, but either way, I wish he was my dad…

    • Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time. 
    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
