Yeah there are plenty of “semi-credible” people like this saying a million different things right now. Nobody knows anything

Every team has a reason that makes them seem legit and a reason that they’re suspect. 
 

Cleveland - Andrew Berry is the legit piece. 
 

Haslem is a joke tho. So many chances and can’t move the needle. 
 

Saints - Loomis and recent history. I think if Payton was still the coach the deal would be done. 

Bensons are historically terrible owners though. They got lucky once with Payton and Brees. Now I suspect they’re going back to being “the Saints.” 
 

Panthers are the opposite. The staying force is Tepper and to an extent Fitterer. The suspect piece is Rhule who is immediately replaceable. If your Watson you go play for the right owner/GM combo. Not the right roster, coach combo.

What the fug this thing just sounds all weird and screwy.

Rapoport just said Watson and the Texans are actually working fairly cordially in coming up for a solution, and he also said the Falcons meeting isn't set in stone, just that they are hoping to meet with Watson tmrw. Maybe a straight up no from the Texans

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
