It's a clusterf*ck and that's why this is dragging on so long.

Atlanta is Watson's #1 choice. But they don't offer the best trade package to Houston. And they'd be enriching a division rival to make a trade work (most likely).

Panthers probably still have the most assets on the table to trade for Watson. The Panthers are probably the Texans preferred trade partner.

Saints are a wildcard. They don't offer the best trade package most likely, maybe why they needed a second meeting with Watson. They need to win over him personally over the Panthers.

fug your excitement!! Let's just build a team that can win consistently.. 

If your not excited to have a football team in your city that you can watch and support then you're not a fan anyway..

So you have to be excited knowing your team is going to suck? Alrighty. That's some weirdo poo I can't understand, but cool.

I honestly think we give Deshaun a better chance at winning than the Saints do. 

I do to.. And so do most analysts if they truly breakdown the roster..

But he has finally choice so let's move on and live with it..

This is the only way Watson comes to the Panthers. 

Atlanta backs out. They can't trade Matt Ryan and free up the salary. This has to happen. Watson is going to Atlanta if they can make it work. Period, the end, goodbye.

Houston prefers the Panthers offer over New Orleans. That or the Panthers up the offer to something even MORE crazy. Houston has to agree to the trade as well as Watson waiving his no trade clause.

That's it.

Big if, and since the salary cap doesn't exist to NO because they just kick the can. How exactly will it hamstring them? 

I guess we’d have to see what they would give up but Inability to replenish via draft would hurt. I don’t think their roster is particularly good aside from a few pieces. Jordan and Jenkins are long in the tooth. Michael Thomas is a question mark and is almost 30. Atlanta is poo too. With a younger roster, I think we are in the best spot if we somehow only gave up picks.

After labeling as opportunists and attacking the family of the child Britt Reid nearly killed in a drunken crash you are worried about abuse now?

This literally makes no sense at all.

Give it another shot...

As for the regular programming, is today the new drop-deadline for a Whip-It-Out deal?

If not today, when?

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
