MDH Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 I am so sure that Watson will not be an NFL starter. If he ends up being good I will give up on all my future QB opinions, that's how shocked I would be. His traits don't translate to the next level at all. This is where I'm at too. I don't think Watson will be a quality NFL starter. That being said I'd still take him over TT. Just because I believe something doesn't mean it will be true and I'd rather roll the dice on a guy who might be good over a guy who won't be on the roster in 2 years.
Kirby Jackson Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) Without totally avoiding the question, it depends. The Texans would be better off with Tyrod, the Jets would be better off with Watson. It depends where your team is. For the Bills I think that they are better off with Tyrod (I guess). He gives them the best chance to win now. If it is determined that this team is entering a rebuild they can cut ties and have 2 #1's in a great QB draft to get their guy. With that being said we could certainly argue it either way.

Bill_with_it Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Do I get Watson and a first or second? If the answer is no, then my answer is no.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 my two letter (and vote) contribution to the thread. NO
jeffismagic Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 Yes. Then I trade Watson for high draft picks and start Foles or Siemian who I acquire with a lesser pick.
xsoldier54 Posted May 3, 2017 Posted May 3, 2017 If they wanted Watson, they could have had him without trading TT. Why would anyone do it now?
jeffismagic Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 If they wanted Watson, they could have had him without trading TT. Why would anyone do it now? Houston gave up 2 1st round picks for Watson. I would trade TT in a heartbeat for a similar haul.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 Assuming there's no dead money. I think you have to take Watson's potential to be more than a middling to mediocre starter over a middling to mediocre starter. They're the same guy. Can we trade him to the jets for their number one.
NewEra Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 Voted yes. I think we know just about how good tyrod will be. Deshaun is still more of an unknown, so I'd take him over tyrod just based on the unknown.
Bangarang Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) Without hesitation. I think Tyrod is what he is at this point. He's a decent enough starter that will keep you competitive and consistently hovering around 8-8. Basically the worst possible spot to be in. Watson would cost less and if he sucks we'd get a higher pick or he could be good in which case we'd be set at QB. Seems like an easy decision to me. Edited May 4, 2017 by Bangarang
jr1 Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 how can Tyrod both suck and be worth the 12th overall pick at the same time?
ndirish1978 Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 how can Tyrod both suck and be worth the 12th overall pick at the same time? THANK YOU. Bear in mind this is coming from the guy who started a thread telling everyone his "sources"were positive LeSean was gone this offseason. When it turned out to be a load of garbage, he disappeared from the board for a month and then came back saying plans changed based on the shocking firing of Doug Whaley because "only the top brass knew about it" even though scouts were telling people well in advance they were all gone.
ndirish1978 Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 There is a thread on the front page titled "Would You Trade Tyrod." Perhaps in an effort to avoid a myriad of duplicate threads, we could roll this into that thread? The premise is ridiculous and there is no need for a poll just because OP had an idea. Unless, that it, we want to see these gems of new threads: Would you right now trade TT for Mahomes Would you a little later trade TT for Kizer Would you retroactively trade Mario for Skelton
Buffalo Boy Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 Only because Watson might be better. I don't actually think he will make it though. I know TT can't do it. Stats are for losers!!! " ooh, he protects the ball." Easy to do when you don't throw to the middle or anticipate a throw.... ever. Hey, TT lovers, do you really think he gets us anywhere... ever?
Rc2catch Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 We have two young talented unproven quarterbacks on the roster already, why do we need a third? We know Tyrod can protect the ball, can throw deep, and can pick up third downs with his legs. If you just want potential over proven average to above average (which is Tyrod) just start Cardale or the new rookie. I mean let's be real here it's actually possible Peterman could win the job??? He has a weak arm so they say but I'm sure Sammy would love a quarterback who hits him in stride on a slant and doesn't drop it by his feet. Watson is just as unproven as Cardale or peterman. Just my 2 cents
reddogblitz Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 . Tyrod can not win you a Super Bowl. That's what everyone said about Trent Dilfer and Jeff Hostettler.
Southtown Tommy Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 I don't want either one of them. Tired of the athletic qb that doesn't know how to play the position. Move on to '18 and get one of the studs.
