I like Stafford but we're no where close to being ready to compete so I'd rather see a rookie grow with the team. What I like about a rookie is that he'd be playing behind what should be a really good OLine (assuming we get a decent coach). Let the rookie grow while we rebuild the defense with draft picks.
to be fair the Jags are doing it with two first-round picks last year and this year and the 2021 is The first pick in the draft.
and cap space, lots of it.
if true Young brings a base salary of three-quarters of a million dollars and a roster bonus hit of 1.4 million for this season and he is 21 years of age. I like this part of the trade but there needs to be a lot more coming. And often there is extra information when trade becomes known. I am thinking this is just another clickbait attempt and there will be many more between now and March 17th
I know how some on here like to go down Rabbit Holes. Since ESPN said Saturday that WFT were looking at Watson trade I thought this would be a good one
Does anyone have any idea who Paul Rucker is? I have never heard of him and a quick search comes up with a musician and he doesn't look like the guy in that picture.

SOURCES: hearing that a #Blockbuster deal may be in place between #WFT and the #Texans that would send defensive rookie of the year #ChaseYoung to #Houston in exchange for #DeshaunWatson. Details to come.
Some nut that recently tweeted that the Dodgers are going to trade Cory Seager to the Reds.
Montez Sweat and Young would be great with 1.19 and 2022 first but not sure I'd settle for that. I'm hoping this could be a Watson's agent's move to start bidding to get his player to NYC. Just think, we could have a picante sauce, Whataburger and Watson going from Texas to New Yawk City!
Trade for Tua and also draft a QB?
Well that’s not true. We’ve got 9 picks in the upcoming draft. & many bad contracts that can be worked out, traded, cut, or restructured.
if true by now someone else would be all over this, right?

yes if Zach Wilson there at 1.3. Tu's gonna be alright IMO but injuries may limited him as they did Watt, Clowney and many others. Wilson has ceiling of a Rodgers and a floor of a very good QB who could sit a season if Tag is doing well. Getting WR like Terrace Marshall for either of those QBs to throw to would be smart.
Don't fall into the rabbit hole and the narratives. If your statement is true, why did he post this?
Didn’t we see this movie before?
Yep and if you missed the movie, talk to fans in Jacksonville, Detroit, Washington, New York and even Miami. It's been in syndication for 10-15 years.
but this year we might get popcorn.
I am seeing Caserio, Bieniemy and a haul for Watson and some minor other trades as a way to end this debacle.
Don't mind me; I'm just down on all Houston sports and their athletes these days. It seems hopeless being a fan in this city sometimes.
No worries. I totally understand!
It's not 90% every year. I think it's over a 3 or 4 year period.
Funny, but that team was talented enough to win it all. They just ran into a buzzsaw.
Good point.
the odds are against dam near everything. Only one QB wins every year. Everything is improbable about the super bowl. You know what’s even more improbable? Finding a franchise QB. Weather you believe that Watson is that or not he’s got the attention of the entire NFL, the national and local media and a shitload of fans. He must be doing something right. I’ve had my doubts and still do as to wheather or not he can be that guy but he’s the closest we've been to having a franchise QB since this team’s inception.
certainly they are stumbling but as I said it is difficult for me to admit I make mistakes and it must be so for Billionaire CEOs and owners. Hey coaching prospects, I hired Easterby to do A and then had to use him temporarily for B. B has been resolved and Easterby has gone back to what I hired him for. Caserio is the GM and if I hire you, you will be the HC and answer to the GM whom answers to me. None of you answer to Mr. Easterby. There is too much pandering to players and coaching prospects for me. It is a J O B and either you want it or not. I lay out what I want and the players, GM and coaches make it happen. If their way doesn't get me where I want with MY team in my time period, I replace them. I own this team. Buy your team if you want to.
I could see it. Darnnold or Tua both still have the potential of top five picks but have had setbacks. There are worse things than having two potential legit QBs. We know we’ve been there.
my point exactly. We can trade Watson for a Walker wagon load; Watt for a round three, Tunsil for 1.13 and 3.77 and Brandin Cooks for X Howard and still not have the coach to bring it together. I want to see whom we get for HC before I get excited. A huge concern is Tim Kelly remaining as OC someone pointed out he would keep Devlin and that makes me ill.
I hear what you're saying. And if Cal had the Alpha, go pound sand attitude from the beginning, the Watson situation might not be happening. But Cal went Beta right from the get go and was promising to give everyone down to his secretary a say in things. Trust fund baby's going to have to grow up in front of our eyes to get himself out of this.
Dont bother.... its 2021... its stale, theres no butter and its only salt content comes from Cals forehead sweat.
Have you ever negotiated from a position of weakness? Ever sold a house in a buyers market? Trading DW4 is basically impossible for the Texans. Why? If Watson truly wants out and he gives you a list of a couple of teams, those teams are in power now. So say he says Miami for example, Miami will off the Texans the minimum. They can keep Tua and flip him for more capital somewhere else. They will offer their 1st this year and maybe a 1st next year if they're feeling generous. That 1st rd pick this yr would be their 1st rd pick, not the Texans pick. So the Texans get the 14th pick this year and the 14th pick next yr and no qb. If they trade Watson, might as well trade Tunsil and any other young players.
