It's time, Dave.  HOF QBs in their 20s go on the market once a generation if that.  Make it happen, whatever the cost, whoever has to get traded.  Nothing are worth the 10+ years of top tier QB play we'd get from DW

I'm all on the DW train if the price is right, but 10+ years? Does anyone really expect that? Isn't he something like the most sacked QB since he entered the league and he's 25.. not sure he'll be balling out at 35 with the amount of punishment he's already taken

Texans want 3 first round picks 

I’m sure they do.

but they just lost their negotiating leverage when Watson went public. You can’t have a disgruntled face of the franchise. So they now almost certainly must trade him.

I bet he goes to the Dolphins

They have the assets, are on the upswing, great defense, a legit young TE & OL...and a trade history w/HOU.  An ideal setup makes it seem almost too good to happen.

NYJ are another dumpster fire, doubt Watson wants that, and this is the rare NFL scenario where the player has say with the No trade clause.

Bias aside, looking around the league, I think the 49ers, Panthers & Dolphins are the young teams, with exciting coaches, promising foundations, that I'd be interested in if I were a top QB on the trade market.  Maybe Chicago.

NYJ? DEN? ATL? DET? PHI? WFT? Hell no.

So, twice. That's all you got huh? Two times. Neither for a QB? Wow. That's lovely. 

That’s all I can think of off the top of my head. Also the RG3 trade was pretty bad. You have an example of one that worked out?

There'll be enough teams interested  that they just might get it. Don't think it'll be from us though.

Jay Cutler trade was two firsts and two seconds plus something else, if I remember correctly.

That's an example of another quarterback trade, but not one that worked out.

Chicago would be tough IMO for that FO.  I mean, they have spent the last several years being mocked for not taking Watson in the draft and picking Mitch instead.    Guess it depends on how you look at it though.  To me, it just highlights what a joke that FO would be....to then give up the farm to get the guy you had and refused to take.

Watson is reportedly a big fan of Robert Saleh.

Miami and San Francisco both have former colleagues of Nick Caserio (Brian Flores and Adam Peters) in high places. Plus each has a young quarterback they can offer in return.

For Watson, San Francisco has the additional appeal of Kyle Shanahan's system.

I've seen trades for first rounders that worked out for trading up in a draft. For instance, Mahomes. But, I can't think of any QB's that were traded for numerous first rounders.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
