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

Respect your thought process, but man, I have less than ZERO desire to live in NYC area...none, I don't get the draw at all, but people love it.

Personally I'd really be pushing for Miami, but I'm a water freak.

I think if one is young, then NYC would be interesting to live in.  At my age though, I am with you.  I enjoy visiting it, but have zero desire to live there.  

If he wants to win a Superbowl, then I would say SF.   Get the defense healthy, and with Watson under center, they could be a significant challenger.

Yeah, I'm eyeing a 3 day stay at the Standard Miami for my gals bday in the Spring.  Miami is pretty dope.  I just hate Florida overall but Miami is hard to beat in many respects.

Being able to leave the stadium and get on my boat, and within an hour be in beautiful water hunting Sailfish, or a couple hours in the Bahamas, or a few hours and be in Key West...while paying no state income tax....

Man, talk about living.

I don't know anything about Watson as a person, but I could certainly see the appeal of the LA or Miami areas for a young, attractive, multi-millionaire. 

I am very, very skeptical about the Jets chatter. Other than Saleh, I don't see anything that's appealing about the Jets at all.  Not to mention, given his unhappiness and issues with the McNair ownership, I'm not sure he'd be super happy about the Jets' owner literally being a part of the last President's administration. 

I think the biggest drawback for Miami is the Texans may not want to keep Watson in the conference.  If it becomes an NFC only race, I could see it coming down to SF, the Rams, or the Panthers.

Evergreen is pretty ideal.  If I moved back would avoid Denver like the plague but love Colorado.  I was in RiNo/Ballpark for 3 years.  MAYBE consider the Wash Park or Highlands.  Fort Collins & Summit County are even crazy these days.  Just too much traffic without a proper pedestrian oriented city feel but if I had the dough, would go for Evergreen and a spot at Beaver Creek or near Breck. 

We're going back probably late this year/early next year but we'll go western slope. I'm completely over the Front Range. Evergreen turned into a completely different place. Like the worst possible combination of Cherry Creek and Boulder. Geographically perfect, but with the worst mix of humanity. If I had to stay in the Denver metro area, I'd go Conifer but it's only about 5 years or so trailing behind Evergreen.

I have never gotten the appeal of NYC, ever....and I've been probably 100 times through the years.

Busy, expensive, and cold....not my cup of tea.

Depends on how we're classifying young and the part of New York haha.  I'd go for Soho/Tribeca or Upper East side in a heartbeat.  Maybe near the High Line.

I'd personally love going for the high end city vibe, but non-party life.  That's why I'm all about the West Loop here in Chi-town.

Yeah, I'd be dipping to the Bahamas all the time.  It makes sense why it's such a magnet.  I'd take my yacht to a different island every few weeks in the Caribbean and then have a spot to fly to during hurricane season.

I think people here are forgetting this is to be mutual. The Texans have to agree and get something too. The team Watson will go to is one he wants to AND the Texans can get capital for.


Miami is probably where he is going. They have everything he and the Texans want.

SF probably has the Coaching and team but they’re far from where he is from and also they don’t have what the Texans want without breaking the bank. 

Jets I only see coaching for him by they do have the capital for the Texans as well.

Colts not going to happen.

Panthers I see nothing but some key players and not enough capital for the Texans.

He isn’t coming here that’s all but a fact at this point. 

Miami

NY

SF

Is going to be his list in that order I suspect.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
