He's been more in the know for Houston sports longer than you've been alive. He's just saying what you don't want to hear. If he was saying "I think a trade should be coming soon" you would be spamming this board with him.

Everyone has said that he is not in the know as he used to be don’t poop on the messenger lol.

IMO if I'm Tepp and Fitt I throw one last hail mary in early April and if that doesn't go well then I immediately call the Dolphins and start discussing the number 3 pick.

We can’t get three if Houston ends up with it.

I think what’s weird and cool at the same time is I’ve really only noticed us being the only NFC people talk about trading for him, I mean I heard a little Bears and 49ers at first but that is quiet now just us.  Also what if Jets don’t want to trade Darnold, and I really don’t think Miami is ready to move on for Tua. Also Texans can get him out of AFC I really think we are favorites.

McClain is a local radio host.  I doubt he has any inside info on whether or not the Texans would trade for Bridgewater.

McClain is one of the Texans beat writers for the Houston Chronicle. He's covered them pretty much since their inception.

The Chronicle's other guy is Aaron Wilson, the guy who used to be the Ravens Insider.

Dude come on now, of course he has sources.  He is an incredibly respected journalist. 

So Houston doesn't want to trade Watson, but they are talking about who they don't want in a trade.  Makes sense

If this really is inside information, it means they are considering trading him to us...which is actually good news if you are wanting Watson. If they are considering it, Tepper is going to make it hard to say no. If you you really think Bridgewater is going to make a deal fall apart if we give them enough other pieces, then you are fooling yourselves. If they want a QB, there are QBs to be had out there that are better than TB that they can get for one of the picks we send them.

    • Coaches can't mentor, they coach, they are two entirely different things, and your coaches can also only do so many things at one time.  When they're running a drill, the vets are pulling the young guys aside after their reps and giving tips while waiting for the drill to reset. You do also realize that for the most part, players are only around the coaches in the film room and on the field, coaches aren't in the locker room other than just before the game and at half.  That's another place someone like Thielen shines, he's always been a pro's pro, he's going to take these young WRs under his wing and team them how you go about being an NFL player. That's not stuff coaches do, you NEED the vets for it and Thielen has embraced the role.  When you have a guy who made his career on doing the little things right, and he is willing to be that vet mentor to a group of young WRs in their 1st or 2nd year that you hope to be your future 1-4, then he's worth every penny we're giving him this year.
    • Why in Minnesota? That's bizarre. Not like we have a vet WR who played his college ball and the majority of his NFL ball in Minnesota that a few room temperature IQ Panthers fans want to poo on who was obviously brought in every bit as much to mentor young WRs as much as he was to play who has still managed to put up decent numbers in awful offenses in the twilight of his career. Anyone who thinks the Panthers haven't gotten everything out of Thielen that they signed up for shouldn't be taken seriously.
