In the coming months teams are expecting Deshaun Watson will likely settle and be punished to the tune of 6+ games. There are certain teams planning to make a move, and have prepared if this opening came again.

0.00% chance the Texans allow him to go to another team.

Your sources are clueless.

If D. Watson ever plays in the NFL again it will be for the Houston Texans....

Why would we give up a pot of Gold for a political nightmare and one injury away from ruining us for a while. Watson is an amazing talent. Remember when Cam hurt his shoulder? It took us years to recover and..... that's right, we still haven't recovered when our Franchise QB got hurt. Giving up too much along with that risk is not worth it. Having a Franchise QB and paying him great and having the picks and team to build around him is more important and that's not this situation.

All political issues aside:  Cost is everything.  If you give up too much, you can't surround him with the team required to win.

I'm the first person on the QB is everything bandwagon, but just having the QB isn't enough.  Green Bay has had a HoF calibre QB for fifteen years now and only one SB appearance to show for it.  Likewise Drew Brees in N.O.  Etc.  You have to find your QB, while continuing to draft well at other positions.

I do feel this team is an O-line and QB away from being a legitimate contender (if the young guys continue to develop the way they flashed).

i'm too lazy to look, but i could have sworn the texans were making plans to trade him before the draft...then all hell broke loose.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
