It's happening. (Probably)

I don’t understand all the people that possibly think this ruins us, you give up a few first round picks for and elite quarterback, and 1-2 of the decent players from last years roster. You still have 6 rounds of the draft to build through and you have an Elite quarterback! One who can actually throw the ball down the field, and with accuracy. This is a no brainer. 

So you would give Hou Burns, Brown and Chin + 2 1sts?

I imagine things are pretty much stalled until there's some clarity to this situation.

Florio talked about it. Basically said if it was just the one accusation it might not have an effect, but four is another story.

I concur.

Heres a look at the all the "trade everythang for Watson" people after he started behind a OL of UDFAs and gets his 2nd ACL tear in both knees

So trading one draft worth’s of picks in NOT worth landing maybe the second best QB in the world? 

Pain is temporary- Super Bowls are forever. We’re never going anywhere unless we get a top flight signal caller and excuse me if I don’t think the number 4 or 5 QB in this year draft is the bees knees.

Bucs have been smarter about free agency lately, they won big on the Brady bet. Aranus learned a lot in the league from past mistakes over the years I guess. Hell I didn't think Brady had enough to make it through the year. 

The Jags spend tons and piss it all away while picking top 5 every year. It's been incredible. Jets up their too. Miami gets a nod. 

Yeah but they’re  about to get Trevor Lawrence, you know, a great QB, and watch them be in the Owl in 3 years…

If only it were only that cheap and easy everyone would be doing it.

They keep trying to rationalize what last year's team would have done with a Watson.  That team doesn't exist anymore.

You’re right. Next years roster is shaping up to be much better - especially on defense.

Maybe. I don't buy it. Urban seems more like a Saban/Kelly college guy then a Carroll to me. The Jags have been defunct since their owner bought them. It has the makings of a trainwreck even with a stable QB.

K, can someone with some clout and credibility give a rational take on the current state of this going down with the “allegations”? Timeline, realistic expectations, etc.?

thanks

Good luck with that.  This is a sh*t show in the making.  Stock up on popcorn.

I feel like we are spending the cap that can be spent on Watson. Can this still happen?

We had what, 30 mil in cap space before free agency started, and we’ve spent about 12-15 mil next season so far?

A superstar franchise QB can change things in a heartbeat. See Mayfield, Baker and Allen, Josh.

    • A team should always be putting at least one or two draft picks in at tackle and guard each season. Those guys just don't last nearly long enough and those that do get very, very expensive. In our situation, we need a little more time to see what the Icky injury works itself out to. Njiman performed really well out there and if this injury lingers into the next season, then he might do well enough there to hold the line for the team. Or we could draft early if there is a stud LOT in the draft when our spot comes along.  Honestly, we may be looking at replacing both LT and RT this season at this point. Moton is getting long in the tooth and while he deserves a shot to go for a playoff run with this team, I don't know whether we will really see him come back next season yet. It's still so darned early in all of this to say.
    • Because we had a ton of things go our way this year and made the playoffs with a -70 point differential.  This year was the outlier.  Regression to the mean is unavoidable.  So the team will have to significantly improve to beat 8 wins next year.
    • One thing I noticed in this game (and I say this as the biggest of Bryce Young haters) is that Bryce did do a solid job of throwing into voids in this game, and leading receivers on crossers.  There were a few times where I was thinking "where the hell is he throwing it" only for a receiver to appear out of nowhere and catch it in stride.  Mike McDaniel might be a guy that can squeeze a little bit of production out of the otherwise ghastly Bryce Young. His offenses heavily feature that style of passing game.  I've heard Idzik is drawing interest from other teams.  If so, bringing McDaniel in at OC would be a stellar move.  I know it'll never happen, but fun to think about.
