So anything come out about Ryan's bonus screwing the Falcons out of this?

Well, I guess it doesn't matter, as credible reporters already said this morning if he didn't decide by 4pm, Falcons are out.  So its down to us and Taints.

This whole Deshaun Watson "sweepstakes" experience has shown me how many blue-check-mark verified Twitter "beat writers" are as credible as any of us on the Huddle.

We have learned that Twitter is basically bullshit on every level except good humor.

I have a couple friends with blue check marks. They're some of the least important people you could ever meet. The threshold for getting one has been lowered so much in the last 5 years that its barely even a status symbol anymore

Something about his guaranteed money kicks in making the falcons pay an additional 7 mil guranteed. That was supposedly at 4pm today but some have disputed that. 

The reporter just said if it’s not done today they are out.

We were going to give them THREE first round picks!

every team trying to get DW is. The difference is carolina isn't scrambling and manipulating the cap to fit a player. Thats gonna hurt in the future

yes because those other teams over leveraged themselves to make sure carolina didn't get him. Meanwhile carolina continues looking for a franchise QB no worse for the wear 

Exactly.. Carolina nor Cleveland didn't have to jumped thru hoops to get him.. We were set up for him to have a competitive team now and in the future because the team is young..

Saints had to do 18 audits 10 refunds and 34 payouts..

And

The Falcons with little to no assets already are giving up those and draft capital plus taking a hit on Ryan's contract..

So if Watson is a Panther we’re all gonna celebrate, but if he’s not we’re gonna laugh at the team that traded for him?

you guys are something else lol

I'll be pissed if we get him. It will cripple us for years.

Not me. I'd rather some other team overpay for him. I'd rather we didn't trade for anyone this year.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
