jj watt released

[TylerDurden]

Posted awhile back about trading for/signing him...   I hope Fitterer can work some magic at a good price.  Would be the perfect vet to come in and mentor the young guys and still produce at s high level, but I'm sure he's gonna be signing with Pittsburgh.

Doesn't sound likely...

Wow. At an impasse with Watson, totally neglecting him and his wishes. But JJ ask for a trade and he gets released in a couple minutes to help him out. Weird. 

Yea, their situations are identical.

Why was he released and not traded?

Who, in their right mind, would be willing to give up a "solid draft pick" AND pay $17.5M for a guy who has a hard time staying healthy and had 5.5 sacks last year?

I mean, they couldn't trade him to Houston...

[Snake]

We have zero shot at the playoffs so he won't sign with us.

As a Panthers fan I do not want to see it, and obviously there are a few variables to make it happen, but if I am Caserio I call Dallas. I would try for a package that included a sign and trade of Prescott and the 10th pick from Dallas. 

Not sure what else may be included, but getting your new franchise QB, who is also still young, and adding the 10th overall pick in a draft where you currently have no 1st or 2nd round pick may be the best scenario. Also, this trade sends him to the NFC.

If I am Dallas I am interested as well. I get a top 5 QB in the league throwing to Cooper, Lamb, and Gallup with Zeke Elliott in the backfield too. The Cowboys had a lot of injuries on that Oline last year, those guys will be back to protect him, and they are a good group. The offense would be dynamic. 

That is also assuming he wants anything to do with Dallas. TBH, with that head coach there....I wouldn't.

That’s patently false. We get a good QB and a couple OL we have a very legit shot at the playoffs.

Actually that’s correct going by metrics and statistics for the past 20 years.

If Brady comes back he heads to Tampa on a near minimum 1 yr deal for a shot at a ring.

I think we're further away than that but even accepting the premise, it's not like we can just decide we're gonna get those things.

We're not really in good position draft wise or free agency wise on the quarterback front.

[Moo Daeng]

We could possibly push for a playoff spot

We aren't going to be on Watts list

We shouldn't sign him regardless

Regardless of what team I'm with, I'd want to see what Prescott looks like after that major injury before I'd offer anything for him.
