The price may drop for his services via trade, but is it worth it? I guess if we miss out on a QB in the draft Tepper will remain fixated on Watson, unless he is behind bars. I hope he would wait until the truth comes out to try to make any kinds of moves.

Watson should have never signed that contract extension with a racist pos owner running the show. He should have kept his head down played on the tag and hit FA when he could.

FYI: Latest lawsuit filed today includes charges by a second woman alleging that Watson tried to force her to perform oral sex on him.

Also that he forced her to put her hand inside his anus. 
 

I know what they meant but I’m going to assume deshaun is actually a power bottom.

Up to 22 now and one of them says it happened this month and after the allegations.

No way we can touch this now

I don't think anybody can until there's some sort of resolution.

You'd have to be a complete moron to trade for somebody with stuff like this hanging over his head.

Sure did.

Drew Bledsoe was a four time Pro-Bowl player, so he was a very solid NFL QB. At the moment, Watson's stats through the first four years(with less games played than Drew) are mostly ahead of Bledsoe's. Pretty stark differences in efficiency ratings, TD:INT ratio, etc. Comparable at some level but Watson is on a pretty accelerated track to eclipse him and leave him behind.

Hate to throw fire on the discussion as only an occasional lurker, but you'd have to be a complete moron to trade for somebody with this many accusations out there - regardless of whether the league eventually lets him off with some slap on the wrist penalty.

 

"Elitist *sshole" or not, I'd never support an organization that put winning at all costs ahead of the optics of a situation like this. Having to explain to my kid why I wouldn't buy him a Panthers jersey with Watson's name on it shouldn't be a conversation I feel like anyone should ever need to have - and I don't have kids.

 

Watson should have understood how easily situations like this could arise - even if parts of this are overblown - and from an ownership/management standpoint I sure as *ell wouldn't want him around my family and employees who could sue me for millions in the event he's STILL not clear on what acceptable behavior is following this mess.

Even if you could get him for a 7th rounder, you’d still be on the hook for his 10 mill in salary this year.

10 mil for a guy who is most likely going to end up on the exempt list.

Is he worth the cap and PR hit? That’s a tough decision.

Remember, a player still gets paid if they are on the exempt list.

If there’s no trade market, the Texans will have to decide if they want to pay his salary this year or cut him.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
