For the record, you aren't reading what OP is saying either.  OP is saying trade with Miami to get the #3 pick, then use that pick and future picks to go get Watson.  Not trade with Miami to get Watson after Miami already traded for him.

I get what the OP and you are saying. I understand (even if I don't think it would happen).

My thing is, if we could get to number three, then why not just stay there? At that point, I'd really have to consider if DW is worth all that, especially when I would be in a better position for Lance, Wilson or Fields (and their rookie contract). It would be worth considering, as would trying to use it to trade for DW.

But I could see a team trading a first round pick for an established player of CMC's caliber if they feel he could play a vital role towards their success.

I agree.  IF, and ONLY IF Zach Wilson is there I'd take him.  Not a believer in Justin Fields or Trey Lance.

You already traded your future picks to Miami. You can't pull picks out of your ass

That's your preference. 

I like the thought of Wilson, but for me, he has some important questions, just like the other two. His level of competition leaves a lot to be desired, and his durability is of real concern. 

My bet would be on Lance!

I think most of us agree that if the Texans decide to trade Watson they would like it to be with the Jets or Dolphins so they would have a chance at one of the top 3 QBs in the draft, but we actually seem like the team most likely to go “all in”.

Unfortunately I don’t think Teddy solves their QB dilemma but what if we trade with Miami, let’s say the 8th pick plus CMC for the third pick.  Then we package the 3rd pick plus next years first, plus a few 2nds, plus a few young players for Watson.

I know that is a lot to give up for one player, but it’s starting to really feel like we are going to do anything we can to make this happen.

if anything we could make the trade with Miami and even if we don’t trade again for Watson we would be in better position to take a QB on the draft.

 

 

 

We can always pray it doesn't can't we. If you want to give up CMC and the 8th for the 3rd to get your QB fine do it, but give your best players and future drafts picks for one QB is foolish.

In his scenario he traded CMC and 8 for 3. 

He didn't include any future picks? 

I dont like the idea personally but do people even read the OP or just decide to poo all over and take some perceived intellectual high ground. 

Basically in total we'd be trading 

8

CMC

2022 1st

"a few" (3?) 2nds 

A couple young players - no idea who

 

That is pretty close to the same offer people are already floating around OP just took a more outside the box approach to facilitate all parties since Texans dont want Teddy.

Read again.  The OP said trade #8 and CMC for Miami's #3.  We would still have all of our future picks.

Trading McCaffrey triggers a crazy cap hit. It's silly that people are even discussing it.

It's equally silly to think that just McCaffrey and the #8 pick nets us the number three from the Dolphins.

Again, this scenario isn't feasible.

I seriously can't see trading up to #3 for Lance.

      Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.

      It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now.

      The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
