"Per a league source, the Panthers quietly are keeping an eye on Watson. "

 

This is about as vague as you can get.   I would bet dollars to donuts nobody is trading for Watson until the league makes a move on him.

I could see Tepper and Fit moving if we give a 1st and a late round pick next year if we found secure him and keep Darnald. Other than that I doubt we touch him unless the texans down right release him.

But what exactly is the crime? I'm guessing solicitation of prostitution but that's all I can think of. Still each count carries max 5 years so he could serve time for it.

If true - according to several complaints there is much much more than solicitation. I am not sure where you got that idea.

And since this is my field, the FBI is investigating extortion, not Watson, which the feds will often take if it’s interstate and/or conveyed electronically (and this seems to be both), because of the complexity and varying degrees of laws between states and the lack of communication and cooperation there would be not only between states but also in gathering evidence from such entities as websites, email accounts, phone/cellular tower records which are extremely difficult  for one state to obtain for a variety of areas (essentially the fact the crime did not occur in what could be defined in a central location).

I got that idea because you could actually prove that in court. A DA isn't going to pick up a case on he said she said and you believe the woman. I'm pretty sure you could convict that he was trying to solicit sex. Yes there are other claims but like I said solicitation is a federal crime.

To translate, FBI involvement is about possible extortion by a woman against Watson. The action was not even initiated by Watson's team purportedly. So stop jumping to conclusions. It's just another twist in the saga.

That would be a huge twist and I would like to see him prove extortion as well. Definitely an interesting case.

This is currently a civil case, not a criminal case.

A criminal case, however, can stem from all of this.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
