I have this strange feeling that Watson will be our starting QB for the next 12 years.  And yes, anything we give up will be worth it

Watson will be the TD, passing, and wins (reg season and playoffs) leader in Carolina by the time he hangs them up.

 

And he will be holding up a Lombardi trophy before it’s all said and done

Smartest move Texans can do is get rid of him while is value is high. Watson price plummets for Texans the longer this goes on ... and at the point I think Watson is Carolinas too lose ... 

only plummets after the draft.   Stock probably can inch higher until then.

Im not sure I can get behind this being good for Houston.  Is it really better if you were questioning if he would play for you again vs being told to your face he isn’t playing for you?  

Whether it's actually going to turn out good for Houston? No idea.

That they see him talking to them as a positive as opposed to him not even answering their calls? Probably.

The Texans are going to lessen his trade value if they refuse to entertain offers until he starts sitting out actual activities.  You can't try to force someone like this to play ... even if they call his bluff it'll be terrible for the new coach.  Better to build with a bounty of draft picks and good young players.

If they truly are committed to not trading him, then hanging on to him long enough for interested teams to go in other directions makes sense.

And if he's committed to not playing for them (which it certainly seems like is the case), all they'd be doing is shooting themselves in the foot. There will never be a shortage of interested teams. The price will just go down. Texans just hurt themselves by playing hardball, considerably more than Watson would hurt himself by sitting out for an extended period of time if he truly won't ever play for Houston again.

There will always be a market for Watson, even after the draft.  But the market will be hottest before it... barring something exceptional (like a team going all in this year having a catastrophic QB injury in training camp)

      I imagine starting Cade Mays has everything to do with him already being under contract next season and Christensen not. If they feel like the performance level is similar, they probably want to see if Mays can play well enough down the stretch to win the starting job going into next season. Plus, yeah, Brady Christensen is an excellent depth player given he can play literally every position on the OL at a solid level. Personally, I'd like to see us extend him regardless just for that alone. He might legitimately be the most versatile OL in the league.

      I’m hoping Moton will retire a Panther. He’s been a steady presence on that OL for years and it would be ashamed to let him go.

      Hunt would be having a pro bowl season if he was on a playoff team. And Lewis will be here another 2 years with that contract he got. I don’t think at this point guard is an option in the near future.
