For the Carolina Panthers, it would be awesome to see him sit out 2021 and then the Texans be forced to trade him in 2022 offseason. In 2022 we should be in MUCH better shape to make a deal with them.

He really isn't going to sit out man...he would lose way too much money and that is money gone forever as he isn't looking for a bigger payday or anything.

This is where it gets fun. We have a good old fashioned wild west showdown.

This isn't in the least bit shocking.

In fact it would seem the majority of huddlers would be entirely shocked....

....literally nobody (well \, maybe myself and 2 others) believed the Texans had a choice in the matter -- at all.

Him sitting a year is a year where that's all that is talked about in regard to Houston.

The gun is to their head and they are acting like it's play time. 

It's also a year that he forfeits $40,000,000 in pay not to mention all the other "benefits" of such...

...McNair and the Texans have the stack needed to sit at that poker table -- Deshaun does not.

Wouldn't it be something to watch Watson come out every game and play horribly on purpose? Like just come out and take a knee or throw an obvious interception.

What is to stop this from happening? You still have to pay the player if he shows up, correct? 

Only a no-integrity person would do such a thing...

...are you suggesting Deshaun would even consider this?

For one thing it would also likely fall into the category of a federal crime for bribery/fixing a game, It would also be a career ender look what happened to a SB winning coach in Philly.

He is also just 25 years old. It would suck to lose that money but if he wants to leave and it becomes a standoff, I suspect he will sit out. He has YEARS of potential income ahead of him in the league.

I don't think this scenario is likely, however.

    • You're not reading.  This isn't about his college performance. It's about his NFL prospects. The Golden Calf of Bristol was one of the greatest college players of all time. That didn't mean he was a great NFL prospect. Hunter is an elite of the elite NFL CB prospect who was a great college WR too based primarily on absurd physical talent and just natural ball skills. Could he be an elite WR if he focused on that? Honestly, probably. But in terms of him being the best WR prospect in this draft? No. His skill set is just way too raw as a WR. He just looks way more natural and instinctual playing CB.
    • Yea...another Brooks move and I yelling. I'll reserve that till I see how many holes he fills in the draft. We all know our needs at this point.
    • AND THERE IT IS Thank you, because you posted this as I was typing up my previous response and you did EXACTLY what I said the Hunter defenders do. You're taking people having very legitimate concerns about how part of his game will translate to the NFL and making it into someone talking bad about him as a college player. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING Go back and read every post I made about him this year, I consistently said he's a true generational collegiate talent, one of the rarest of them all.  But that doesn't mean jack squat when it comes to evaluating what kind of player he'll be in the NFL, or even just what position is best for him. If you want to think differently, that's totally fair, but pointing to things like stats and awards is just making you look like you don't know what you're talking about, because they don't mean anything.  There are so many instances of players putting up elite stats in college but couldn't sniff being even a serviceable NFL player.  Which again, isn't what myself or others are saying about Hunter, but it's just the proof that looking at stats/awards is a fools errand when projecting NFL potential and impact.
