Texans now indicate Deshaun Watson is available for trade

That's the same as #2. 

Not even remotely similar...#3 doesn't make any provisions for a "trade".

Sidenote... it's weird how much you get off on the wealthy man trying to force his will on the less wealthy man.

So now we're supposed to feel sorry for a guy who is set to have career earnings approaching $200,000,000 by 2025... 🤣😂🤪🤙🍻

BTW, nobody is "forcing their will" on anyone else, stop with the virtue signaling phony talk...

...both sides agreed to a detailed and legally enforceable contract, a contract that does not contain a "my feelings are hurt clause"...

...I expect the Texans to hold him to the contract, as they should.

So... you're getting off on that. Just like you would if a player is released (in which case the team would be failing to uphold the contract they entered into).

Anytime you see the "strong man" winning you get off on it. It's weird.

the hypothetical Watson that existed pre-scandal was worth selling the farm for.  

the actual Watson that exists now carries too much risk to acquire IMO

I expect a payoff is coming for his current situation.  But that won't actually close the door on that chapter.  Could easily get re-opened after this group is paid off.

Not interested. They want big compensation and no indication when or if Watson plays again. Plus the negative message it sends to the community that it's ok to violate women, allegedly, as long as you can throw a ball, that's going to be a PR nightmare. 

The more negative message (for anyone) is a sense that you can never be more than the worst thing you’ve ever done … or allegedly done in this case.

It's not 1 case. It's 22 separate unresolved cases. He could be more, a whole lot more, and he may be.  But right now, from a  business standpoint, you can't give up 3 years of number 1s and some 2s, starting caliber players, 50m in salary cap and dedicate a roster spot on the hope that this isn't true. I don't think for 1 second Watson is ignorant. Bringing in dozens of massage therapists and going as far as to fly them in, if nothing crazy is going on, record that poo.

It’s more of a panic out of being wrong. The guy was convinced Julio wouldn’t be traded and Watson would be forced to play. Julio didn’t pan out as he wanted and now the Texans are willing to trade Watson. He is lucky Watson got into legal trouble or he would have already been traded by now. Oh yeah he also didn’t think we would unload Teddy…

Your imagination knows no bounds...

This would be an impossibility since NFL teams are contractually required to perform up to the terms they and the player agree to.  There is no "we're just not gonna live up to it" clause in any NFL contract.

Who is the "strong man" in the Whiny Aaron vs. Packers situation?  

PS...radio is saying Whiny Aaron is set to report 😉
