Dolphins have interest in trading for Watson

[NAS]

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).”

It’s fair to say about 12 teams are going to be interested... pulling the trigger to empty their roster and trade all of their resources is going to be the real test to see how interested they really are.

If it's close, I would be willing to bet he gets traded to an NFC team.

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.

Hope so because it would take a kings random to land him. I’ve already seen what a team looks like with no first round picks and have Watson at the helm

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).

Tua was a stupid pick. 

Having said that, I see no team making the moves it may need to trade with Houston--maybe I am not paying attention, but I think the Panthers better start working on Plans B, C, D. etc. as well

Fully prepped for him to go to the AFCE next year. The memes were fun though

Dolphins can literally get Watson for a single 1st rd pick.  Send the 2 1st rd picks they got from Houston and their 1st this year.

[LinvilleGorge]

With all the rumors about the Dolphins and Watson and Tua coming out and saying he has no clue what his future is you gotta wonder at what point they've burned that bridge.

[BurnNChinn]

He is coming here.

Dolphins are going to get him if he’s traded. Panthers simply can’t offer as much to the Texans or a better situation to Watson. It is what it is.

The Jets and Dolphins having higher 1st round picks and multiple 1st round picks THIS year definitely gives them a huge advantage.
