Let's say you are Deshaun Watson, bias aside, where do you want to go?

Apologize if this has already been brought up as I didn't have time to read all 12 pages.

If I'm Watson, who do I want standing between me and the Super Bowl? Mahomes, Allen, and Lamar for the next decade or a bunch of guys who will retire soon like Brady, and Rodgers? 

That's actually another very fair point. The NFC without Brees, Brady, & Rodgers in a year or so will be up for the taking.  Seattle needs to rebuild around Russ but there's no other QB really running the conference, or even their divisions for that matter once that generation is gone.  I'm still unsure about Murray & Jones and the remaining teams are all up in the air QB wise.

It's wild child! Wild I say!

It's still business.   Miami.  Decent team.  ( a rising tide raises all ships )   Watson improves all.

NO STATE INCOME TAX IN FLORDIA !!!!

But the cost of living is higher (10%) than in NC. so technically, the income tax in NC is less than the cost of living in Florida---so it is probably a wash, if he chooses to look at it that way.

No amount of money compensates for the cray cray. I don't want to have to live in and around and next to the cray cray. If Deshaun is smart, neither will he, and from all accounts and appearances, he seems like a pretty smart young man.

if im watson I'd want to go back home on my couch bc i clearly don't want to be a teamate in a team sport where my teammates depend on me to not wake up and decide to demand a trade. Dude shouldve taken up boxing or tennis or some other 1v1 sport 

LOL! His own teammates have reportedly been telling him to force his way out. The Texans are a fuging dumpster fire. Andre Johnson (longtime great Texans WR) has been tweeting about how he should GTFO of that organization.

I didn’t realize Andre Johnson (thanks for letting me know who he is, never heard of him) currently plays for the Texans. I’d prefer to not trade a poo ton of assets for a guy who will turn his back on his CURRENT teammates who are counting on him. He’s got a problem with the owner? The dude sounds like a douche, I’d imagine all the players have a problem with the owner if Watson does. Why isn’t the whole team demanding a trade? Instead, the captain is abandoning his ship. I’m sure a lot of guys play for the money and that’s fine. But if I’m trading 3+ firsts for a guy he better damn well be in it for his teammates. Watson clearly isn’t that guy. I can post what Nelson agalhor said about the raiders locker room if you haven’t already seen it. That’s applicable here. 
 

Thank God Cam didnt wake up one morning and decide that he was pissed we cut Smitty and JR was an ass so he was demanding a trade. That’s all I know

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
