you have no morals all you care about is winning football games.

I've got news for you its  bigger things then stupid football in the end and i'm glad the POS Watson is not coming here.

You're absolutely right. When it comes to football fandom, I couldn't give one poo about morals. This isn't the Billy Graham Lifetime Achievement Award. It's football. Winning is all that matters.

Top QBs do not last till the 2nd round, even if that is their grade. The top 3 QBs will go round one regardless if they have a 1st or 3rd round grade. Teams need QBs.

I know, but my point is, if he happens to last until then...  because I don't trust him or any of the other guys that were projected as the top QBs of this class in the first round.  If another team wants to take that gamble, have at it, but I prefer we didnt.

Because Miami is his first option.

This does not mean that he would NOT waive it for Carolina.  Which has been well-known the entire time.  

If Houston/Miami have a deal in place, then why would Watson waive it for a 2nd team when he could go to his first option?

This does not mean he would not waive it for Carolina, if the Miami deal broke down.  It does not mean Watson would not play for Carolina.  It does not mean we aren't 2nd in line to get Watson.

You guys are reading far, far more into Ian's tweet than necessary.  The only new information was that we were not going to pursue him, "at this time."  And as Florio pointed out, who knows what "at this time" means?  It could mean that if the Dolphins/Texans deal breaks down, then we will be back to pursuing him at another time later this week or in the offseason.

I think we draft a QB and all defense, then we blame the QB next year for all the problems with the offense, rinse and repeat.

      We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
