Nut, my friend are you reading the posts on this message board for the last few days? I get the impression you only pop in every so often and respond just to a certain poster with no idea of the history behind the post. Most of us are not going to repeat something that has been stated In the recent past. I am not attacking you because other seem to post like you do.

Thank you for your courtesy. I do only pop in ever so often, however do you really think that the board is the harbinger of the truth? I am attempting to use common sense which usually helps in some matters.

Is this for certain?
Watson may be arrogant enough to believe he can take the Jets to SB glory but meh, they don't have the best track record.
I'm thinking Miami may be closer to getting there so would be more desirable if he has designs on sooner than later.
Jaguars might be the most attractive option for Texans as it would be the #1 pick ( Trevor Lawrence - hello) but they are in our division.
If I'm the GM, and I am forced to trade Watson, I am wanting two firsts and two seconds in this draft ( for starters) to help with the rebuild asap.

Helping you catch up, Watson's agent has made it known that he wants number 4 in New York City to increase DW brand and the Agent's cut of that. Deshaun's girlfriend Jilly wants to be a model and let's face it New York City is 10 times the place to be over Miami.

It is not arrogant if a quarterback believes they can take team to a Super Bowl. I want confidence in my QB, cornerbacks and wide receivers.

If you are coming to a message board for your truth I suggest you might want to look elsewhere Perhaps CNN? If you have watched football for very long you will know that Common Sense rarely applies. What is common sensical about following a team for 15 or 20 years and never achieving the prize?

You have it backwards. Go back and read your posts. Thank you for your replies. I could care less what anybody thinks about my bs. I am trying to do my small bit on a day that appears more important than most about the Texans. I would like to keep the 1st good QB we ever had that could win a SB. It's nothing to do with you.

Reports are EB wanted roster control and to be the highest paid HC. Don't know if thats true or not, same with all reports, but from what I read it was Caserio that said "nope" and that was the end of EB's chance at being a HC this year.
Click to expand...
Everything I read said partial control of roster in which I think he should've got especially if he wanted to implement similar players to what KC has. EB probably felt that character would be the first trait considered by those currently in control of the Texans roster. Either way he's still in KC and no one chose him to be their HC.

The last sentence is the key, everyone here is saying that EB wanted nothing to do with the Texans because of Easterby, character, etc. but they keep skipping over the fact that EB has been interviewed for open HC jobs for the last 3 years and no one has hired him. So why do we automatically assume it was the Texans making bad decisions and EB was being smart to not want to be here? Let me ask this, in the real world is a person is interviewed by pretty much every major company in their field that has an opening and they still don't get hired do people say its the companies that are the problem or do they think something isn't right with the interviewee?

The answer is obvious - it's the interviewee. Does it matter, though? I don't think there's a huge uproar over EB not getting hired by the Texans. Not by Texans fans, anyway. He wasn't the unanimous runaway choice by many of us here. He wasn't even a top 3 candidate for me. Furthermore, and more important to this thread, him not being hired here has nothing to do with Watson being unhappy, if reports that he requested a trade at least two weeks ago are true. The reports are that Watson wasn't going to change his mind no matter who the HC hire was. And apparently, he and Culley meshed well when they were together briefly.

This organization went from a "flat" structure (something Cal just a short time ago implied to us was the best idea since sliced bread) to a top heavy organization where a bulk of the power is centered at the top by 3 men, leaving very little for those beneath them.

It looks to me like the Texans FO have decided they would yield most if not all personnel decisions and the coach will have very little say in it.

Watson said before this drama began - there are people in the organization that act like they have all the power but they really don't. I didn't put it in quotation marks because I don't recall his exact words but that's the jist of it. It obviously was annoying to him and later he'd find out that not only were they (Easterby) acting like they had the power, but they were actually given that power. The power to choose the GM and maybe even the entire coaching staff.

I don't know why Watson despises Easterby but that's what it looks like.

I think every one of them would prefer Watson .... If he's going to be traded , I believe it happens before those guys are picked up.

100 % yes by those teams. I do see Stafford going elsewhere [Colts?] before a decision is made on Deshaun.

I think not having Watson was a bigger deal than control of the roster.
 
when i heard that things just are not working out between watson n the texans the 1st thing i thought of was how do Chicago go get him.

Still mad af that our GM didn't pick him, ddnt even MEET with him b4 the draft n went with a guy just because he looks like him. Jeesh he missed out on Watson AND Mahommes witch really stings me wehre it hurts but whatevs now we got 2nd chance at him

so wut my understanding is re: this situation is that Watson holds all the cards and has a no-trade contract in his contract that says he basicly gets 2 pick whatever team he wants 2 go 2?

So he is big mad at texas I guess and so he could get over not being picked by Ryan Pace and go to the bears witch have like zero trade capitol which would really mess with texas (not h8ing just sayin)

another thing i read was Watson could instead of sitting out until he gets traded he could play and just stop running the ball which would force a trade n his value wud be lower after that stuff so maybe the texans just cut they're loss and move him so they can get rebuild going again?


I heard also that he might go 2 florida but florida sux besides the no taxes i mean, who wants to go to that ****ty state? bunch of meth heads and crocodiles thats who but whatevs, thats not the point of this thread

u guys think there a chance Watson comes up here 2 play for us with the gr8 defense we got?

If not wear do you think Watson goes to?

I know the team just said they aren't trading him but I don't think they have a choice from what i been hearing n reading...


let me know wut ya all think!!!

I also think that maybe u guys could do the trade watson straight up for Trubitsky n maybe he acturally plays good 4 u guys. Thing is if watson really wants to burn the texans he could go 2 the team with the worst offer (bears, they don't have anything) and u guys end up with Mitch and a 2nd rounder hahaha but prolly not just sayin
 
Umm if i was nick i would send him anyone who gives us the best offer

so if the bears wanna trade all the future picks away ill take that

(5) 1st rounders and a couple of twos plus take some of our bad contracts sounds good to me


mitch and the bears wipped the texans and watson ass so... idk how would bears fans think of a trade ????

if the texans dont get a good deal...i guess he might has well retire then because he wont be playing for like 5 years

simple has that. period
 
powda said:
Trouble is- dw decides who he gets traded to. If he has an exclusive group of teams in mind and those teams know it, it diminishes his trade value...

He'd want to do that to save his future team picks.

The Texans might have to sit him right up until the trade deadline next season. He'd be open to more teams by then and the Texans might get better value.

It's a tight rope act though. If he sits to long (say all the way into next off-season) he'll start losing value and all along he'll be eating up cap space. And it could most definitely cause a coup in the locker room.

i guess we will have to wait n see maybe the texans can have a come to jesus meeting..with jack and watson lol and watson retires a texan lol
 
Wonder what happens if Watson is still here when the clock starts in the draft, how icey can Caserio be? U think he gets more ammo then or better value predraft? Sorry if i mention something allready been brought up

Ice water in his vains!!!! lol

it will be like the jets are on the clock and he wont make a move till the clock hits like :28 seconds.

maybe if they really like the byu qb there make some deal were jets pick him and then the jets just hand him over to the texans

Somehow in a weird way i would look forward to the draft if watson is still here then(and i hope he is not traded) i can be excited if no trade is done but also if we get loads of ammo from a trade and that would force me to stay up and watch the whole thing which means its not bed time before maybe 04-05 haha

I am sorry I haven't ever been to a cocaine party before, or even tried cocaine, let alone attended a party like the one you mentioned above which sounds absolutely awful.

So maybe I am not sure I get your reference, but I certainly do not think that 25 GM's are trying to do a baggie of cocaine with Deshaun Watson.

I mean he is pretty great at football if we are being honest, but I still think it would take a really crappy, desperate team to give up 3 or 4 1st/2nd rounders for Deshaun and then still be on the hook to pay him a bunch of money as well. That just seems like a team killer to me.

Most likely some desperate team will do it, Like the Dolphins or the Bears or some other putrid team like that.

Not really. It has been reported that two of the places that he wants to go are the Dolphins and the Jets. Both teams are loaded with low draft choices!
 
whodknee said:
I posted about this earlier that we should be willing to sit DW4 if the offers are too low. But I don't think that anything less than some of these monster trade scenarios is too low. Expectations are too high around here IMO. I just watched film on Zach Wilson and posted over in the college forum that if I'm the Jets or Miami, I take Wilson instead of trading picks. I see less holes in his game than Watson. I don't see why we'll get more in a trade if we hold out on trading him unless we're getting crazy low balled.

I think they will be able to get at least three 1st round picks, maybe 4 or 3 1st round picks and a couple of 2nd round picks as well. Or maybe some very good proven talent thrown into the mix. Watson will sell at stadiums anywhere he goes for years to come, owners will be all over trying to trade for him!
