weepaws 2,515 Posted June 11, 2021 How can someone make an offer for a player that has so much legal issues, i would be careful of him going forward, I can see him having problems mount up one problem after another just like J Gordon. I wouldn’t want him on my dynasty team. So i would take M Jones and Cam if you need a Qb for this upcoming season, if not take the first round pick and T Hill.

Watson is a player with enough risk that a prudent owner doesnt pay top dollar for. most of your dynasty players value is in the next 3 years and at least one or two years will be botched with this legal situation. what concerns me is also what we dont know either way, I cant blame the guy for wanting to avoid him. 7 hours ago, nobody said: I offered Rodgers for Watson straight up before all the Rodgers won't play for the Packers stuff became public.

We know the NFL doesn't penalize players that long for anything... especially the good ones. He'll be back and he's only 26 years old. Rodgers actually just may retire. I think it's really 50/50 on whether he plays or not this year. I'm like 75/25 Watson plays. The league will suspend Watson, but my guess is that it'll only be 8 games. Heck, he may not even get that suspension until next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,219 Posted June 11, 2021 ignore all the answers saying to take anything you can get for him, a kleenex, etc... Ignore comparisons to Josh Gordon. Why we would compare Watson to Gordon and not Kareem Hunt / Tyreek Hill / Adrian Peterson etc is beyond me. A substance abuse issue is something that maybe you can't beat and will derail your career. What's going on with Watson falls more in the category of the other three I mentioned. As a few others have mentioned, no one is going to offer you good value right now. So the answer is, you just hold him. He's going to play again. There are already rumors that these charges will go away / be settled. He probably ends up on the commissioners exempt list and probably gets a suspension but he's young and one of the most talented QB's in the game. You just have to wait it out.

I may counter for Fields and a first round pick. Not sure how strongly he feels about Fields. And he is a Bears fan to boot. I'm kind of in QB hell and we need two decent QBs to really compete in this league. But in the end, if I just stick with Watson in the end I think he should be fine at some point.

You only have Watson and Lance, and you didn't hit "ACCEPT" two seconds after being offered Daniel Jones (the highest-rated deep passer in the NFL) AND a first round pick? Heck, Jones will probly be better than Watson even if Watson plays this year, with all the new and newly healthy weapons Jones now has at his disposal! If you don't take that deal, I hope you come in last place every year from now on--you'll deserve it.

That's another plus for Jones; he has a crummy oline, so when protection breaks down, he runs--so there are some bonus points there. And he's never had this kind of talent around him--especially talent that suits his deep-ball strengths (they don't call him "Danny Dimes" for nothing). This year he has Barkley back healthy to make teams respect the run (Barkley missed all but two games last season), Evan Engram, Kyle Rudolph and Kelvin Benjamin at TE, Kenny Golladay, Darius Slayton going into his third season, Sterling Shepard, John Ross, Dante Pettis, and they drafted Kadarius Toney in the 1st round. And if you need to see it before you believe it, consider that over the last 8 weeks of 2019, Jones was the QB5 in fantasy--with a much less impressive arsenal of weapons around him. Given his sitch this year, I expect him to be a top 5 QB again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know it was that much, but I will say that if he can be the QB5 with 18 fumbles, I'm not too concerned about them. I know Dante Culpepper led the league in fumbles in back-to-back seasons in his day, and his 23 fumbles in 2002 are tied with Kerry Collins for most in a season. Carson Wentz also has 48 fumbles in 56 career games. Maybe a concern, but still, in your situation, I'd be salivating over that offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
