Three 1st round picks and one of the best RB's in the NFL. I would take it and then draft Fields if he’s there at 8 Edited February 16, 2021 by YoloinOhio 1

It seemed important to them to send Hopkins out of the AFC. And Watson won't agree to be traded to the Jets anyway.

Why would he want to go there? Maybe he likes the coach and GM? The Jets are turning things around and would be competitive very quickly with Watson. They could trade both ones this year and a 2 this year, plus a first next year, and still have a full complement of picks both years (other than not having a one this year). They have a lot of holes, but they also have some pretty good pieces already.

And he allegedly does like Robert Saleh. However not sure they have that many pieces. He'd inherit a beast of a young LT to protect his blindside, but beyond that not sure there is a lot on the Jets. There is Crowder as a slot but their WR corps are not great after that - Mims is little more than an incomplete. They have a couple of pieces on D I suppose. I have heard as well that he is not really interested in going there. Think he'd prefer San Fran, Miami or Carolina if they were options.

That and Watson is trying to get out of a terrible situation, why in gods name would he want to play for the jets, when he can get money playing with any team that wants him.

One year working with Deshaun Watson and Joe Brady is THE hot NFL Head Coaching candidate in 2022. Tim Kelly just got Watson to his best career season, by far. His reward is to coach under Grandpa Cully I guess 4-12 in Carolina will look better than 4-12 in Houston?

I also don't believe Carolina would be 4-12. Put Watson on that team, even minus McCaffrey who missed a large chunk of this year when they went 5-11 and they are a .500 team at worst next season in an NFC with a Falcons team in transition and a Saints team with no Quarterback. 2

He didn’t hire Gase. While he wasted 2020 by keeping him, he made out like a bandit getting multiple 1st rd picks for a safety. I like the saleh hire. I think he’s a great fit for the culture they need to implement. 1

They absolutely could have a Dolphin-like turnaround starting in 2021.
