I guess you aren't talking dynasty or keeper. I have him in dynasty and so wish he would go to Miami sooner or later. Even if he gets suspend right after he goes there and is ready for next year.

rowdystylz1 3 Posted October 20, 2021 Yeah big $ regular redrafts. I scooped him in 1 league where i start Hurts. It coat me nothing to put him on IR as well. I like Hurts (not the offense) but he scares the out of me sometimes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skinsrule05 30 Posted October 20, 2021 I can't picture him having much value this year. Between having to learn a new offense and possible suspension its tough to see him getting much playing time this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinsrule05 30 Posted October 20, 2021 2 minutes ago, TimHauck said: Why would he be eligible for IR? I was wondering this too. He isn't in any of my leagues because he isn't on IR. It sounds like that is just an extra bench spot in his league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Utilit99 4,099 Posted October 21, 2021 Anyone of his talent is worth a stash with the way things are right now unless it's taking up a space that would actually cost you something. Many teams with decent sized benches have a guy or two that they are either stashing or waiting on, or provide little value. Unless you are in an 8 team league.

browndelivers 7 Posted October 22, 2021 Biggest issue IMHO is what the league does. They're not putting him on the exempt list because they know Houston will just ice him every week, so what's the point. But if Miami trades for him they obviously want to use him, so that means the league finally has to put up or shut up. How do they let him play with those 22 or whatever lawsuits? But on the other hand, they are just lawsuits, they aren't proven in court or anything, so how could they NOT let him play? Not sure what Goodell would do but my bet is that he would bite the bullet and prevent Watson from playing. Too much bad PR from not doing anything. Too bad, DW would be great with that group.

rowdystylz1 3 Posted October 25, 2021 Bottomline is organizations need wins, for reasons more than just standings. Watson is a top 5 talent at his position, give or take. Somebody will spin the wheel on him and deal with his PR nightmare no doubt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AxeElf 787 Posted October 26, 2021 2 hours ago, rowdystylz1 said: Somebody will spin the wheel on him and deal with his PR nightmare no doubt Sure, but then they're no longer just dealing with his PR nightmare, they're dealing with the very real possibility that the NFL will step in and place him on the exempt list pending investigation or something. Houston isn't forcing the NFL's hand by voluntarily scratching him every week, but if someone tries to play him, the NFL as a whole will have to decide if they want to deal with his PR nightmare, or if they just sideline him pending further information. So now you've traded three first round picks for a pumpkin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gepetto 987 Posted October 26, 2021 Ian Rapoport is wrong so often, it's just the Texans in his hear trying to drum up a higher offer from Miami. He's just repeating the teams "said" to have had interest weeks ago. Tua is playing pretty good despite all the criticism he gets, but I could still see Miami trading for Watson.

It won’t happen before Tuesday’s trade deadline. Per a source with direct knowledge of the team’s thinking, the Panthers have no plans to pursue the Texans quarterback before Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. ET. The source also explained that the Panthers never offered or considered offering running back Christian McCaffrey as part of a trade package. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimHauck 1,800 Posted October 30, 2021 Again, I think the Panthers are interested and are just denying it. Kinda doubt the Texans would really want CMC though unless he still comes with a lot of draft picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
