as good as his stats are.. for some reason i don't believe in Watson.. not sure why exactly..

on another note, I REALLY HOPE they don't trade away xavien howard this offseason

If the Chiefs didn't have Patrick Mahomes, I'd be over the moon at having Watson.

I'd be over the moon about having Howard on the Chiefs, too, though. That guy is a beast. I definitely wouldn't trade him away unless the return was something really special.

guys it's not going to happen.. and honestly i don't want it to. watson would be no good to us unless we built up the offense around him.. trading for him will be giving up valuable assets and will make this more difficult.. better off to stay with tua, who has shown some promise when he had some good weapons around him (see cardinals game), and build the offense around him and his strengths, quick routes to guys who can create separation and a speedy down field threat or two.. also another good OL player or two

I also don't want to trade the farm for Watson but I think he showed this year that he's still a great QB with absolutely no talent around him. Dude is an absolute stud. I just think the price would be too high.

But I've spent the last week talking myself back into Tua so hopefully the Texans will hire somebody that Watson approves of and this story will go away for Tua's sake.

OK, after having watched a lot of Watson on YouTube, I would love to have him as a Dolphin. I was dumb to say otherwise.

He's great, no question.

He's incredible. Really wasted talent on a shitty team. I want him to stay there one more unhappy year then come to the Bucs when Brady retires after next year

It's really incredible how O'Brien utterly destroyed a very promising team in matter of about 8 months.

The Texans are my second favorite team for what they've done for Dolphins! Tunsil is good, but not worth that bounty holy shit

New article today with quotes from anonymous players taking shots at Tua. Nothing particularly noteworthy was said, just another thing to add as this threatens to become a circus.

Yeah, not great. But, again, remember that he just rehabbed from that injury and with a full offseason of actual training without rehab and with an actual preseason etc., he could look a lot better. He does have the great character and mental focus to learn and improve. Let's just hope it happens. If not, would be happy for Watson because at least we know he's great already, but wouldn't want to draft another QB yet. Should definitely have a Fitz-like backup just in case though.

I'm thinking Wince will stay with the Eagles at least one more year. He seems to have had more clout with the Eagles execs than Coach Pederson. But this isn't a bad idea if it doesn't work out there and he's humble enough to play a Fitz role for Tua.

I'd be fine with drafting a QB on day 3. Those quotes don't bother me, just seems to speak to him having been thrown in too soon. If they really did play him so that they could know whether to draft another QB that plan clearly backfired because he was neither so terrible nor so good that it's open and shut. I say let's get some OL, WR, and a RB and run it back. Lots of rookies that played worse than Tua ended up becoming very good.

Nah, that's an instant full scale controversy. I think it has to be a run of the mill backup and/or late round draft pick type.

Yeah Wentz probably won't comfortably accept a backup role until at least one more failed season I guess.. drafting may be the way to go.. just sucks to imagine using one of those picks on anything but an offensive weapon right now
