Texans now indicate Deshaun Watson is available for trade

[Zod]

Multiple sources on the Twitter app are saying the Texans are now spreading the word that Deshaun is available for trade.

 

Panthers are being mentioned as a no brainer. 

 

Still interested?

It isn't going to happen until early 2022. That way an interested suitor can see if the legal issues are sorted and also the Texans are sure what the draft compensation they get (Draft board positions in the rounds).

The Dolphins needs to see if Tua is any good
The Eagles need to see if Hurts is any good
The Panthers need to see if Darnold is any good
The Broncos idk?

Man, I am torn.  I want the Panthers to be great, and this could be the missing piece.  On the other hand, I can't afford massages.  I believe character matters, and I believe in second chances. 

I might low ball the Texans to see what they might take, keep Darnold, and hope he plays well.  Having 2 QBs is great.

Quite possible. Still, if Darnold stinks it up I am all aboard the Deshaun train once again.

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 Vikings might be in the mix as well.  Not sure that they think the world of Mond.  (See what I did there?)

I doubt we can outbid Philly

It depends on what we have to give up.  With his baggage and uncertainty of status, multiple 1st are no longer an option. 

Also - sometimes scandals like this can mess up a player psychologically and never perform at the same level.

Let he who has never visited a rub and tug cast the first stone.

We could trade Darnold, a first rounder in 2022, and Robby Anderson* (I know, I know) and we might get him.  I am just thinking his value is lower than we think right now.

*Anderson has a large salary at a position where we have Moore, Marshall, Shi, Moore again, Zylstra, Bayless--still better than we have had in a while...etc.   Do not think we do this, but...

At that price, no. And frankly, that was true before the legal stuff began. Not sure the Panthers will be either.

I wouldn't bet on that. 

The Panthers might be willing to wait and see, but I'm. Ot buying that everyone will.

The PR stuff is the bigger risk, but this is second. Happens all the time to players. I would not trade the farm for him at this point.

It is very tempting, but I think we will see what we have and draft a QB if necessary.
