Darnold never came close to throwing for 5000 yards and 30 + TDs in a season. Now, that came with 30 picks too, but still Jameis is much much much more prolific a passer than Sam ever thought about being.

I mean Jameis is a MUCH better QB than Darnold, but if we're just going to be shuffling around mid QBs might as well just stick with Sam one more year and get a top draft pick next season when a lot of possible future franchise guys will be available.

Well you have to start somewhere. Just because we are not good now, does not mean that we cannot build something good over the next couple years. Beginning that with one of the best QBs in the league is a good start. The Rams were not the Rams they are now when their GM embarked on his plan. It took years and years of moves and acquiring players.

My point is, nobody who is like "Damn, hes an amazing player, no way can we lose him!" All those guys are utterly replaceable, probably with guys who are cheaper too. The draft is always a crap shoot. I respect the Rams model recently. Take the known studs, versus the unknown draft picks. And in this case, Watson is probably a better player and more productive than any 2 first rounders in the next 2 drafts.

Decades? Really? Don't you think thats a little hyperbole? Yeah that elite player with nothing else beside him took us to 15-1, won the MVP and almost won it all. And what makes you think that they will not build the team around Watson? There are plenty of other ways to build a good team besides first round draft picks. I mean, poo....look at our recent first rounders. Not exactly lighting the world on fire, are they?

The same could be said for just about any other team he goes to, except maybe Seattle or Philly which both now have a ton of extra draft picks. Any team who trades for him is going to take it on the chin in the compensation aspect of it.

To be fair there is not one concrete report from Watson or his representation as to where he would or would not waive his no trade clause for. The people who do know are not talking, and everybody else is just pulling poo out of their asses for clicks and views.

Lol what? Now you’re just pulling poo out of your ass.

Tepper wants a superstar QB. Simple as. And we’re not gonna be settled until that happens.

Yup. I think this Steelers talk is pure cap.

and he made the Pro Bowl lmao. Shows you what a joke that is. Trade for like a 6th, get like a 3rd in comp?

“Continue to win”….did we win more than 1 game once he started playing meaningful snaps? so it’s looking like a CB room of Horn, Henderson, Taylor, Bouye, and probably a cheap FA and/or draft pick? Still not terrible I guess.

Yeah, Justin Fields or Mac Jones would probably be a slam dunk #1 pick this year.

We’re gonna end up with Jameis Winston at this point. Not that that is necessarily a terrible thing, but….damn.

Blah blah blah

We're down like 1 2nd rounder this year. Other than that we have pretty much the same amount of high draft picks as 80% of the rest of the league. Are there a few with a bunch of firsts in the next 2 years or so? Yeah. We're currently top 10 in the most cap space. Not going to argue with you on the coaching staff, because they're balls. IDK man....the short term situation is less than ideal but its nothing that is not pretty easily fixable. There is no perfect situation in the NFL.

Yeah, I imagine hes used the services of many of these chicks in the past and he just thought they were all like that? IDK....I highly doubt the number that have come forward is the total number of women hes had interactions with like that.

How would we ever know for sure 1 way or the other though?

Kevin Spacey is a sex pervert creep too, whos victims all happened to end up dead before they could testify, and I still really like watching his movies. I have this crazy ability to divorce my personal feelings about someone who is providing entertainment. I don't know or interact with these people personally. Its really a non-issue for me.

Might as well get a new team at that point. Tepper is going nowhere and Watson would likely be our QB for the next decade or so.

Cam is not a better QB at this point in his career than Watson. Hell I don't think Cam has ever been a better QB than Watson, except for maybe his MVP year. Watson is a top 5 pure passer when hes playing....kinda hard to dispute that. His last season playing he completed a whopping 70% of his passes, for nearly 5,000 yards 33 TDs and 7 INTs. And his lowest completion percentage while starting the full season is 67.3%. Pretty incredible when you realize hes hardly just dinking and dunking down the field. He takes risks and deep shots on the regular.

Right....had Watson not gone public with his desire to leave Houston, would any of this have even come to light? I wonder....

Im sure they do. These are billion dollar enterprises with access to whatever they want. Im sure every interested party has hired private investigators, lawyers, analysts and whatever else money can buy to get as much intel as humanly possible on the situation.
