Watson to Miami??

[tapeANaspirin2it]

How does Miami even think Watson will be available this season or even possibly 1/2 (or more) of next season. If he gets JAILED it's wasted effort / trade / moneies.

I would assume any deals would have contingencies. Many player deals do have clauses about playing time. Any deal would likely have to assume Watson missing this year and at least half of next. I would also think any type of conviction of a sex crime would void Watson's contract.

So, it could actually end up being a great deal for whoever gets Watson. The draft picks could be lower if he misses time and Watson may be forced to take a much lower contract at least for a few seasons while he proves he can stay out of trouble and play at a high level again.

It could also be a good deal for a coach and GM on the hot seat. Imagine you trade for him this year. You get a pass for this year. Then you probably get a pass for next year as Watson misses games.

Some systems just operate differently.
If Watson is convicted of criminal activity ....should he not face the same consequences as any other citizen.

How do you explain an average Joe going to work to support his family as opposed to someone that hides behind blocked phone numbers while trying to scam elderly folks out of their hard earned savings.

Some just don't have the same scruples

I totally get that but man O' man what a PR nightmare. Hardly likely all 29 women are lieing or false reporting. He might be able to "payoff" several but not all. He will eventually go to court and get convicted of step down accounts and probably do 3-6 months probation and 50 comunity service hours.

Question...Drew Brees was just "another guy" in San Diego, true or false?

Once Drew got w/ "The Mastermind" - his game play was waaaaay better than when he played for Marty...

False. His first two seasons as a starter were rough, but his last two were pretty good. Sure he blossomed in NO, but I wouldn't say he was just a guy.

Watson is not allowed to take a snap from under center in 5 states

Do we really want a proven pos?

NO

I don't see the STEELERS even interested in Watson, goes against family values of the Rooneys. Would you as a fan want him on your team........?

I think the family values are a thing of the past. Ben had 2 questionable incidents and we brought in Vick which caused outrage. I would not want Watson on the team even if he is "cleared." What i don't understand is the Texans could start Watson tomorrow, but yet people are saying if he is traded he may not play this year. If the leauge is not stepping in now, how could they step in just because he is traded. Could the Texans have a deal with the league saying they won't play him till the investigation is over?

 

[Drink IRON City]

I don't know about the "deal" but if the "all quiet on the western front" mantra may be in effect here. As long as Texans don't play him all is quiet but he they do start/play him then I think the league steps in.

I think what most are saying is if he gets traded and his leagal outcome is negative then he won't play and suspension comes into the picture. Even if NOT convicted he has to get a minimum of 6 games, Roethlisberger wasn't even charged and got that.

theres a reason Archie didnt want Eli going to the chargers

Tua is 13-8 as starter. Rudolph is 5-4. As a body of work, overall, they are about the same in effectiveness. Neither is really "starter caliber". But the NFL is starved of qb talent. That's why guys like this get the hype.
