Watson Watch Day 4 - The Finale

People like Sheena dont write for us, they write for clout. As fans we want someone diving in, asking the tough questions, and getting useful intel about our team.

Not finding ways to poo on our team, stan for other teams, and use their job to build a network. There is zero integrity in that.

I have not a fan of Sheena.  She has no ties to this area and this is simply a job for her.  She would go work for the Falcons or Browns in a heartbeat.  

Correct me if I'm wrong but I haven't seen her drop a legit hot take.

That’s our 2nd highest pick! (Joking kind of) Also I think his contract is up this year and we might get stuck in a Vikings Cousins situation… 

What do you mean? Him and Darnold are on the same contract. If he revived here, he'd probably want to stay.

I dont think we trade for Baker though, I believe Macadoo isnt a fan of Baker if my memory serves me correct.

He already has.. Its been widely reported the best offer is being sent by the Panthers... Houston wants our offer..

DW is the one holding up everything... 

And again when he called the Falcons it was clear winning and going to a good roster wasn't his choice..

QB pay has nothing to do with Houston accepting our deal.  I am sure our trade compensation is huge.  I am talking about Watson directly.  Pull out the big guns to convince him he NEEDS to be a Carolina Panther.  former and current players, local celebs/artists, a huge pay day, say in roster decisions, all need to play a part.  Community obviously means a lot to Watson.  We need to involve the community in recruiting the most high profile sports figure to play in NC in a long time.

If David Tepper truly refuses to lose...then this is his shot to prove it.  I 100% think he can put an offer on the table that Watson and the Texans cannot say no to.  Question is - is he bold enough to do it?  Money talks.  Offer to make Watson the highest paid QB in the NFL if you think that is what it will take.  

That's the thing though ... while he is worth more than double what Arthur Blank is, Blank is still worth 7.5 billion. His wang swing is just as mighty as Tepper's. Tepper might not be able to do anything.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
