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.

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

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.

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.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
