Good point, I’m no expert on salaries but it looks like we’d be picking up 10 million plus this year and 30 million plus thereafter. So the most obvious way to clear up the most cap space would be packaging CMC and a ton of picks for Watson and they take Darnolds contract. 

You can always make Houston take Some Of the salary for this year. It happens all the time. 
 

Darnold will definitely have to be a part of the deal. Rhule wouldn’t take a rookie QB in the draft because he didn’t want to have Darnold be uncomfortable competing for the job. I don’t see how Rhule can bring Watson in and keep Darnold.

Just a conspiracy do any of you think that CMC is part of the trade and that’s why he’s been out over a month with . 5 hamstring when he should have been back 2 weeks ago ? Or for Watson to come to us would he want CMC still on the team since he has final say we’re he is traded to.

CMC should be one of the few reasons why Watson would want to come here. This OL is pathetic. If there’s no CMC and I’m Watson, I would just sit out the rest of the season in Houston. Start again in the offseason when more teams should want to get involve.

As Verge mentioned on the other thread the price will be staggering 

It wouldn’t surprise me if the price is way less than what everyone is assuming.

If we get Watson AND keep CMC, those two contracts on offense would likely mean we can’t afford a better OL or players like Moore.  Plus we lose draft capital which would be the path to roll in rookies at key positions as alternative

Come on Miami, step up and take that bullet for us.

Today makes senses because (unless you play Thursday) you get nearly a full week to get some practice reps in. With the Texans playing the Dolphins I wonder if it’s today for Carolina or next week for Miami. Honestly watch him still be a Texan after the deadline…

I’m pretty sure they play the dolphins on the 7th and the deadline is the 2nd? Not totally sure.

You are right. I need some coffee….

I think this will ride up straight to the deadline with the Texans trying to drive up the price.

Bring him in early so he can learn the playbook and play vs New England. 

He won't be playing. I'm guessing he will be suspended at least the rest of this season the second he is activated. Depending on what this "investigation" yields and when it ends they may take some of his next year as well.
