Seems like one guy "reports" or floats something into the ether and then 3 to 4 more people regurgitate it on Twitter and voila!  It becomes gospel.

two months ago, we were his preferred destination.

Both of these can’t be true.

Unless he goes all-in and demands a specific destination his shortlist don't matter. And because we get a different report on his favorite spots every week I'm thinking there isn't really any strong preference on his part. If Houston does ship him the hard balling they're doing now is to wear him down until he's desperate enough to accept whatever trade they want.

There’s a big difference in what Watson would be happy with and what the NFL wants + what Watson would be happy with. 
 

First it was NYJ then MIA then CHI then back to NYJ and DEN took the place of CHI then the Niners and now even the Pats are “a suitor.”

The three teams who have been linked to in the longest are NYJ, MIA, CAR. I don’t know what to believe but what I DO KNOW is that if it leaked he doesn’t want to play for two big market teams like MIA and NYJ it looks really bad for the media markets for him to be linked primarily to CAR. Media outlets HAVE to have intrigue in NY, CHI, CA right now for viewers and clickbait. Charlotte NC isn’t gonna drive the clickbait right now. NY, MIA, SF will....that’s my take. Maybe he likes SF. Saying he wants EITHER SF or DEN..not buying it.

Meh. All these “reports” are to be taken with a grain of salt. Some weeks we’re his preferred destination, others it’s SF. Next week it’ll be back to NYJ, then some team out of left field will be mentioned just to drum up clicks like the Giants or something.

If this is true (and I don't think it is), I am surprised Watson thinks Denver has more talent than Miami.  If Miami had Watson this year, they likely challenge the Bills/Chiefs for the AFC championship instead of just barely missing the playoffs.  

Lol Denver doesn’t have more talent than anybody. Dunno where that idea came from. Maybe more than the Jets or Patriots. That’s about it.

Patriots of last year, that is.

      A pretty insane QB stat

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I think evaluating QBs making the transition to the NFL is just a lot harder and more nuanced than draftniks make it out to be. That and the rookie wage scale means that if you don't have a franchise QB on the roster and you think this guy might be one you're almost forced to draft him now that you're protected from giving that guy a future HOFer type contract before he ever plays an NFL down. The expectation for mist of these guys to play right away is also not helping IMO.

      Plenty of good teams made it to Super Bowls and some even won with meh QBs. Takes solid defense, good offensive planning and play calling and a helluva lot of magic. And I think the great QB elevating a team thing is overplayed too much. History just doesn't bear it out. Sure, it can lift a moderately good team like Mahomes did with the Chiefs, or Hurts did with the Eagles. And one can argue about Brady and the Pats (or even Bucs) but if you look at those Patriot and Buccaneer teams... there was something very solid in place already.  Heck, the whole idea that a single player can make or break an NFL team is vastly overplayed. The Cowboys have had a roster full of "star" players for decades now and have gotten bupkus in return. The Raiders have chased everything they could and have floundered mightily. The Giants have had star after star and nothing.  It's just hard to sell posters of a team. Give the marketing people a star though...

      Seems you found the "exception" to the OP. Eli wasn't actually drafted by the Giants. But that's the only team he ever played for since he refused to go to San Diego.
