What do you think about Denver?

Yep us, Denver and 49ers

Right, but there have been reports that Miami isn’t moving on from Tua. He can’t go to Miami is they don’t want him.

In context though, the current situation is that the Texans aren't trading him.

Do the Dolphins still say they want to stick with Tua if that situation changes?

Nice. But do you think Denver is a real possibility, have you heard which one is the favorite?

From the article above...

They’re a popular team on his personal wish list and have the draft capital to pull it off.

I'd rather have Watson than Tua so I'd offer Tua and a couple of picks for the better and more sure thing QB.

Interesting point. Them benching Tua during games this year is a tad concerning, but the reports were talking about how Flores and the GM believe in Tua. Of course, Rhule said the same for Cam...

I would say 49ers but I think we have a chance

Which highlights another aspect of that scenario.

Besides draft picks, the Dolphins can also offer a starter quality quarterback in return.

Would be great if the Panthers ever ended up with a bunch of draft picks for sucking poo.

We never even get to trade our good players...hope this is one of the many changes with the new regime going forward.

Watson is open to waiving his no-trade clause in his $156 million contract extension signed in September.

The Carolina Panthers, led by owner David Tepper and coach Matt Rhule, covet Watson.

...

As for the Texans, nothing has changed since chairman Cal McNair drew a line in the stand about Watson again last Friday when he said in telephone interview: “Deshaun is a Texan, and he’s going to be a Texan.”

If the Texans remain dug in on not trading Watson, then he’s not expected to report and would incur hefty fines. That would include $95,877 for missing a mandatory minicamp, $50,000 per day for every day of training camp missed, and $620,000 for each regular-season game missed.

...

The Texans have been firm in their desire to not trade Watson even though he isn’t returning telephone calls and text messages intended to sell them on their vision for a new leadership structure of general manager Nick Caserio and coach David Culley.

“Our quarterback is under contract,” a team source said. “He is going to be our quarterback.”

...

Great stuff, thanks.

The guy who wants out caves on the no-trade-clause...who knew?!?

No mention of Fitterer, hmm.  There's a lead horse here, look for the spotted coat...

2nd time today I've seen the subject of fines discussed...while not mandatory, OTA's aren't too far off.

Texans certainly do appear resolute...

I’ll trade anyone on defense other than Chinn or burns

You literally cannot post a single article with any of the details of the nature of the discussions with the Texans or what was said or how it was said or anything of the sort.

Exactly.  Gentlemanly negotiations done in private and respectfully don't generate "a single article".  JJ's video is a clear window into how it went down, you're blind.

Going MIA, demanding a trade, refusing to return phone calls & emails, threatening to sit out, posting cryptic twitter blips, etc...

...this is the sort of selfish, low-road/low-rent aberrant behavior which generates a media firestorm of speculation --- the vast majority of it with no basis in fact!!

Texans made the guy the 2nd highest paid QB in the entire NFL and this is how he thanks them...

...clearly someone is giving a good kid some very bad advice.

If they decide to let Watson go, they're trading away a franchise quarterback.

What makes you think they just accept an average defensive player in return?
