Per source, Carolina is one of Deshaun Watson’s preferred destinations if traded.

[Wolfcop]

Common sense says he is more likely to be shipped to an NFC team. 

[tijo]

Watson has a no trade clause.  It is exactly what he can do to the Texans, choose his destination.

Best possible offer would be the 2nd, Darnold and two other 1st rounders.  We are merely a bargaining chip.  The sooner we all realise that we have no leverage in this the better

I think about the only thing we can definitively say is he won't go to a team within the same division.

I'd agree they would ideally want him in the NFC, but if an AFC team makes a better offer than an NFC one, I don't know that the Texans would care enough about it to take less.

Just give the Texans our entire 2021 draft picks + Teddy and call it even. We can start back thru the 2022 draft. All we got out of the 2011 draft was Cam Newton and he alone changed the direction of this stupid franchise for 9 years.

Super Bowl? Cam got us near the promised land but no Championship.  Deshaun would be similar.  Sorry our current roster is NOT merely a QB away.

This is a fine idea...they want more though

If Fitterer makes this happen he will should get a key to the fuggin city

I'm not so sure a freelance sports guy from South Carolina is what I'd call "a solid source".

What is your definition of a "solid source"?

Could you provide 3 or 4 names as an illustration of such?

Mr. Scot wishes he could be a source instead he is the Debbie downer of the huddle.

Yea Watson does not hold all the power, a contract is a contract if Texas really wanted to they could say no to any trade and force him to stay, play or not

it’s a two way street, a no trade clause is beneficial for both parties not just Watson. the texans are interested in capital and Watson’s is interested in moving on to continue his career unobstructed 

what’s most likely happening is the Texans asking for a list of at least 3 realistic teams, that’s what Watson gets

Then the Texans pick the highest bidder of said teams, with no regard to whether Watson wants to go to one more than the other, that’s what the Texans get

The Panthers would have to be one of those few teams AND outbid the others- I just don’t see that happening

Why would he want to compete with Mahomes, Allen, Jackson, and Mayfield in the playoffs every year? It might be smart for him to want to hop over to the NFC.

Again, if Watson didn't want to be traded the no-trade clause would have meaningful inherent value...

...in that he's absolutely pining to get out -- the no-trade clause is virtually worthless.
