Bro shutup and go do some real reporting you "heard" we have the best offer and HOU loves it lol okay bro you and VERGE piggyback reporters its cool though 

I think you’re confusing things a little bit, but then again, you’re probably doing it on purpose. Let’s take a minute and explain: 

My understanding is Karolina came in with the most aggressive offer, and was the team most willing to increase that offer. At the end of the day, that doesn’t dictate Watsons destination, as he has a no trade clause. Not matter what, if one team offers more than the others in terms of draft capital + players, but Watson would rather play for another team, he’s going to play for another team.

Well all players like Florida because of the tax situation and the weather. ATL and NO are both close to home and prioritise offense. We were never a thought though because we have a bad hot seat coach and a irrational owner who's trying to play GM. Tepper will learn at some point but it ain't right now. 

I mean maybe but he’s turned down quite a few good football opportunities in the process. He supposedly wanted to be with Flores desperately but that clearly wasn’t the case.

Ellis. Question for you. Why do you cover the Panthers? I listened to about 10 minutes of your twitter show the other night, and to me it sounds like you hate the team. Just wondering. 

that’s how you know he’s a real fan of this franchise

my conspiracy theory is that we were the leverage team all along

hes shown complete disinterest in coming here every time we’ve made a pursuit, we simply aren’t a big enough market with a thriving enough night life and enough ESPN street cred for his tastes

but we’re offering more than anyone else, so the Texans asked Deshaun to at least just meet with us to help set the bar for a trade, and that he didn’t have to pick us 

watson, trying to leave on amicable terms, said sure. 

Doesn’t make sense. He already stated last year he doesn’t wanna go to a team that is crippled by what they have to give up to get him. A bidding war works against him and I think he’s passed “leaving on amicable terms” both DW and the Texans have power here. Would be stupid for him not to flex it. 

I get him wanting to go to Miami over us at the time because it’s Miami and they had Flores.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
