So for everyone so gung ho about getting Watson by any means, please elaborate how we rebuild the team to be competitive. When would we start to see a turn around. How would we afford his contract and Teddy’s if hes not part of the offer. How do we replace CMC and Shaq for example? What do we do about Moton and Samuel. What will our cap space look like. Do we restructure contracts to have space to sign more people now and try to win now? What positions do we focus on in the later rounds of the draft? I do not understand how people do not see this as being a huge risk for us and putting us in a worse circumstance than we were in before. A generational talent at QB with next to nothing as a supporting cast. Do we really want to go down this road again but with less draft capital to fix it and a way worse cap situation. Come on people stop thinking like one of the worst fan bases in the NFL and be patient and trust the process and stop window shopping for shiny cool looking poo you clearly cant afford.

Today I have seen 2 new trade proposals for Watson - One from the Redskins for 3 first round picks and CHASE YOUNG!  The second from the 49ers, also for 3 first round picks and Nick Bosa.  So, judging by the chatter, Houston is almost assuredly going to want Brian Burns in a Carolina deal for Watson.  Burns and 3 firsts?  Ehhhhhh, IDK about that one.  Might be a bridge too far for me.

They may want those deals, but I don't see either team making those deals. I don't think anything happens in February. Houston will give this as much as possible hoping he changes his mind, then ultimately will trade him in time to prepare for the draft.

I don't believe those proposals.   Watson isn't worth 4 first rounders.  Which is what those are.  One being a guaranteed  stud DE.

RG3 went for 3 1st and 2 2nds, do you really think Watson is going for less? 

I think you are being a bit optimistic on what he was really goes for.

What do you think it will take? for us? or a team like WFT or 49ers?

If you are Washington...4 first rounders would be less IMO than 3 first rounders and Chase Young.

I don't know what it will take.  I think Stafford went for too much and has skewed the Watson conversation to a point I may not be comfortable with anymore. 

I was cool w/ 2 first and CMC.  Then maybe some additional non-first round picks. I'm fine burning some 2nd and 3rd rounders.  Based on the Stafford thing I clearly got no feel on what teams are willing to do in this moment though.

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
