Confirmed waived clause vs. ‘no impediment’. 
 

So as I understand it, many of you feel this means the same thing and can’t possible mean something along the lines of, at the very least, Miami first, Panthers possible if things fail?

The question still stands. Why has the no clause waiver been reported for Miami but not Carolina?

That doesn’t answer the question. It’s not the same as Watson waiving the clause for Carolina, which hasn’t been reported.

Why?

There was no "confirmation" there...

...none whatsoever.

It holds as much weight as Person saying there was no ‘impediment’.

Not that I've flipped on wanting Watson here at this time, I have not and I do not, but it's easy to read all of the (conflicting?) reports on his status regarding Carolina and make most of them agree.  Especially without knowing the details of how the process plays out the mental gymnastics are kinda teeny (even if we discount that there is likely more to every involved team's interactions with the Texans than are being fed to reporters).

Is waiving the trade clause an actual, written act?  If so maybe it simply has only come up with Miami because they believe or believed they are closer to a deal there.  Someone's tweet when this all blew up a few days ago about it being good for Miami if it happened fast and good for other teams if it happened slowly can fit this narrative too.  It's a short leap to he's indicated he will but he hasn't had to yet.

Personally I think what's been reported since early this year (that he's already told them / they are aware of where he's willing to go) applies and the rest of it is people, mostly reporters, trying to make something new out of old information.

Exactly...

If you read any article on the subject and there is a lot, they reference Ian, who covers the entire league and is more widely respected, and point outs the fact other teams were not waived other than Miami and while it doesn’t mean they won’t be in the future, Watson has waived for Miami right now.

But this is way off base for any confirmation?

Meanwhile a Panthers writer unknown to the rest of the NFL claims there is no ‘impediment’ and this basically means the clause pretty much was waived for Carolina since it’s not a problem and a thread Watson didn’t choose Miami is valid.

Yea my brain doesn’t follow that. Pretty clear Watson wants Miami first and foremost.

Great, our team’s beat writer ‘was told’ there was no impediment. Excellent. Get it.

Meanwhile Watson has only waived his no trade clause for Miami.

Watson did not choose Miami confirmed!

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.

      Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?

      Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
