you would think by now those people would learn.

They have spent years wantng us to be paper champs and win the off season and make flashy hires.

Tepper gave them that with Matt Rhule hire and Joe brady as OC also Fitts won the draft and offseason with his trades got everyone talking and media buzzing same as the bucs did for years before Brady.

now they want the new shiny toy in Watson lol.

Twitter dumbasses do not bolster your argument. 

If we get him, BofA will be packed to the rim with cheering fans in the first home game he starts. The actual minority will be people who stop rooting for the team if we do land him.

No, we want a true, game changing franchise Quarterback.

Oh poo I didn't realize Watson wanted it public and the defendants didn't want it public....
 

A lot of people don't know that. They see one bad thing (in this case 22 lol) next to someone's name and boom, they are guilty in their eyes. Watson could've been cleared this with the settlement. He wants to clear his name.

It's all about risk. With Watson you're giving up a huge amount for a guy who has a very real chance of not playing for a long time.

On the other hand you can roll the dice on a young QB in the draft.

At this point in time I think it's a better idea to roll the dice in the draft.

Deshaun Watson is going to play football again.  That is a 100% fact.  So we should be okay with the league letting him play, just as long as he doesn't play for our team?  Because that is what it boils down to.

I think if we do somehow end up getting him, then Tepper will have done his homework with the league and verified that there is no suspension on the horizon.  He does not strike me as the type of guy to just hope it goes his way in a situation like this where the stakes are so high.

Totally with you there.  We should have just kept Cam and called it a day.  We would not be having any of these conversations right now.  

If we properly managed Cam... like protected him and handled his injuries correctly... maybe we'd still have him today. But we don't want the Cam Newton today.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
