I don think he'll be traded until his current "situation" is resolved and maybe his suspension served. That would be ideal for the Panthers letting us get a good look at Darnold in the meantime.

Latest word is the league won't take any action till the legal stuff is over.

And on that front, all indications are that it's far from over.

The Jets already did that homework for us. We didn’t listen and essentially chose Darnold over Fields. The type of decisions that takes years to recover from. 

It will always be the measure of Fitterer--Darnold vs. Fields.

I believe in second chances, but historically, predators do not change their spots. He needs to take a year off and do some serious introspection. Then, I could possibly be interested. Thus far, he's shown no desire to change. I wouldn't take him now if they gave him to us straight up for a case of PBR.

Word to the folks hoping to get him at a reduced price:

Good luck with that.

Albert Breer reports that Nick Caserio is "determined" not to offer any sort of discount for a Watson trade.

Also being reported that the Texans are not in any hurry. They're willing to be patient and wait for the offer they really want.

Wouldn't be wise for anyone to trade for him until he's in the clear with his current legal issues and any punishment by the league is 100% known. I'm not holding my breath on that coming very soon or before the season. I can absolutely see it happening before next season and us trading for him next offseason, but still find it unlikely we make it happen this year.

I’m satisfied with the way our team is being built currently. We knew before last season started that we were 2-3 years away from being a team who could compete and so far we are a little ahead of schedule based off our draft hits and after we seen what our coaches are capable of. We are set up extremely well with cap space all the way around, have little dead cap after this season, and will be entering prime position to be able to lock up our young talent coming up on second contracts (Burns, Moore, etc). I’d love to have Watson but with that baggage and giving away players and the next two drafts plus all our cap space, it does not seem like it’s worth it.

I think so too

Defense is built to EAT right now.  Offense is loaded with speed and talent at all the skill positions.  Only thing lacking right now is the left side of the O-Line, and the HUGE question mark we have in GEQBUS.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
