I have this strange feeling that Watson will be our starting QB for the next 12 years.  And yes, anything we give up will be worth it

Watson will be the TD, passing, and wins (reg season and playoffs) leader in Carolina by the time he hangs them up.

 

And he will be holding up a Lombardi trophy before it’s all said and done

Smartest move Texans can do is get rid of him while is value is high. Watson price plummets for Texans the longer this goes on ... and at the point I think Watson is Carolinas too lose ... 

only plummets after the draft.   Stock probably can inch higher until then.

Im not sure I can get behind this being good for Houston.  Is it really better if you were questioning if he would play for you again vs being told to your face he isn’t playing for you?  

Whether it's actually going to turn out good for Houston? No idea.

That they see him talking to them as a positive as opposed to him not even answering their calls? Probably.

The Texans are going to lessen his trade value if they refuse to entertain offers until he starts sitting out actual activities.  You can't try to force someone like this to play ... even if they call his bluff it'll be terrible for the new coach.  Better to build with a bounty of draft picks and good young players.

If they truly are committed to not trading him, then hanging on to him long enough for interested teams to go in other directions makes sense.

And if he's committed to not playing for them (which it certainly seems like is the case), all they'd be doing is shooting themselves in the foot. There will never be a shortage of interested teams. The price will just go down. Texans just hurt themselves by playing hardball, considerably more than Watson would hurt himself by sitting out for an extended period of time if he truly won't ever play for Houston again.

There will always be a market for Watson, even after the draft.  But the market will be hottest before it... barring something exceptional (like a team going all in this year having a catastrophic QB injury in training camp)

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
