Yes - another Watson thread

“From what we have been told, the Dolphins generally have been discreet in their comments with outsiders about Deshaun Watson, usually shrugging it off when asked about their interest in the disgruntled Houston Texans quarterback.

But according to a source with direct knowledge, a high-ranking team official has told at least one outsider that the Dolphins expect to be in the mix to acquire Watson if the Texans make him available (which they have not, to this point).”

In before 'We have a chance at the injured cast off, in on every deal' lol.

Sounds like they don't want to openly torpedo their 2nd year franchise QB. I don't blame them, I would love this move if I was a Fins fan. Not a team I want to get in a bidding war against.

Shades of the Herschel Walker Trade and we all know how that worked out.

Quote

 

The trade was largely panned in North Texas, where much of the media and populace had concluded the full-of-bluster J.J. Boys were bumbling novices.

Today, 25 years to the day after it was consummated, the Walker trade is universally lauded as laying the yellow brick road to Dallas' 1992, 1993 and 1995 Super Bowl titles.

"I think the legacy of the trade is it was the beginning of the dynasty the Cowboys had at that time," says Walker, 52, who remained a Viking only through the 1991 season, then went to Philadelphia (1992-94) and the Giants (1995) before finishing his career as a Cowboy (1996-97).

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
