Whats his value now with allegations and possible exempt list & suspension?

Unless the accuser kept that alleged apology text or they have security footage (and I sure as hell would if I was a female masseuse working from home) they've got nothing.  I hope the truth comes out but if it's on her side she's going to have a hard time proving it. I don't think it effects his value at all. Might just make it easier for Houston to cut ties.

The battle of the bastards looked bad too. Let's fight this out and see. 

It appears we do not have a choice, like we as fans ever do.  They are going to do whatever they want to do with this.  I just watch the games and hope we win.  If this does go tits up as the odds suggest it will I'm not sure how much more as a fan I can take from this team.

There are plenty of ways to build a team that do not require great first round selections, anyway. If we assume that we lose 2 first rounders and a previous first round selection, we're basically out two first round picks the next couple years but have found our QB of the next ~decade.  Seems like a good trade to me, but of course the devil is in the details.

First round picks are overrated 

Deshaun Watson is underrated 

Until you have a franchise QB, you're garbage.  Get that, build from there in the 2nd-4th rounds, a good coach to develop guys, and sign FAs. People acting like our team is suddenly doomed because we don't have the 1 or 2 extra picks tossed into this trade as opposed to the picks we'd lose trading up for a rookie have lost their minds.  

If all else fails, copy the Saints cap wizardry and just sign whoever/whatever you want and need. We've literally seen entire drafts in this franchise where we came away with only 1 or 2 starters or even JAGs. Draft picks sound great...but proven players sound a lot better. 

 

The saints got one SB out of that and already had their QB.  Still had to cheat to win.  No thanks.

Also deshaun will be a big time sell for FA’s to actually WANT to come here.

    • You all make some great points.  I love the OT Trapilo pick but it is a round too soon.  Tells me someone is doing their homework.  He is a solid pass blocking RT and we need pass blockers to keep Bryce nice. About S--I want an early S too, but Richardson was not bad when he played.  Most players improve the most between years 1 and 2.  There are some decent safeties in this draft later, so maybe I have been looking at the Corvettes in the showroom when I should have been kicking tires in the used SUV lot. Regardless, with Moton's knee concerns, age, contract, etc.  I really would like to see us draft a legit starting-caliber, second tier OT now.  I watched Trapoli at the Sr Bowl and he has really strong pass pro form.  33" arms (OK) and he is 6'8".  There are others I like as well: Cam Williams, Texas Donovan Jackson, Ohio St. Charles Grant, W&M Anthony Belton, NC State Emory Jones, LSU Our coaching staff just showed us how they can develop young players.  Wait until the third or fourth and get one of these guys.  Take a year to prepare them.  Sign BC to another 1-year contract for insurance.  If our OL coaches are an asset and they have a year to work with one of these OTs above, let them do their jobs. In that second round pick slot, maybe we can get that Safety--might have to move up a bit--I would not be surprised to see a draft day trade of Zavala.  If other teams were scouting us properly, they should have seen a potential starter buried on the depth chart.
