They don't have us making a pick. Instead have us trade for Watson. 

Panthers get: Deshaun Watson
Texans get: No. 8 overall, 2021 second-round pick, 2022 first-round pick, 2022 fourth-round pick, CB Troy Pride Jr.

Done and Done!

At this point, you can make as many offers as you want for Watson, but the Texans aren't listening to any of them. Doesn't sound like they'll be changing their mind anytime soon either.

Probably wiser to pursue other avenues right now.

They will cave, long time till draft.

I could care less I don’t think we get him anyway, but they will trade him at some point before season starts

If he's not traded by the draft, I don't think he's traded this season at all.

But given that the Texans are dug in deep on this and that his agent recently denied the suggestion that he'd refuse to participate in OTAs, I don't think he's going anywhere. Frankly, that's what a lot of people in the business think.

On the other part of that post, does that mean the Saints acknowledge that Taysom Hill just may not turn out to be the greatest QB to grace the planet?  I am surprised, said no non-Saints fan ever.

Trading Watson would screw the Texans cap wise even getting picks. I have a feeling they just might let him sit and I believe he himself will sit.

Good article on what trading Watson means for the Texans.

I liked the article, but a quick peek at overthecap shows that cutting JJ Watt saves them $17.5M and cutting Brandon Cooks saves another $12M, with $0 dead cap for both.  That's $29.5 off the books. The article says that they're $23.5M over if they trade Watson. That's $6M left over to help sign the rookies they get. #8, #39, their 3rd and 2 4ths would go a long way towards keeping them competitive on the cheap.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
