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

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.

Not happening, I was hoping this would go away.

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.

AHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Moments after they hire an unqualified HC candidate to appease Watson, he officially demands a trade. You can't make this poo up. Damn... the Texans are fuging dumpster fire.

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.

Meanwhile, in Detroit...

"we're not getting as much interest in Stafford as we expected" suddenly became "damn, we can't even get a MFer to return a call..."

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.
