Okay, Orlando Brown is saying there is ongoing trade negotiations with 6 other teams.....uh yeah...

HOU - a podcast interview is coming out that hints that Houston may be coming around to deal Watson. If this is true, then the whole first half of the draft will go up in flames, as Miami and Jets and Falcons have to decide if they want rookie Qb or Watson. I also wonder if teams like WFT or Carolina jumps in with big offers as well.
 

efactor

Coming at you
Texans sign Mark Ingram

Huh. Seems an odd signing for a team that will probably suck this year regardless of if Watson stays or not

They have to run, David Johnson isn’t the most durable. So Ingram can contribute

What about Mayfield and three first rounders for Watson? would that get it done for both teams? Have to think Browns improve a lot with Watson instead of Baker, but Houston gets a competent qb that could grow and three first rounders. though if Houston does that they better get some offensive lineman. For the Browns, already a good team do you think that puts them in the SB conversation?

as for Carolina trade with Philadelphia. Is Philadelphia high enough on Jalen Hurts to pass on Justin Fields, or is it just a long rebuild and they aren't high enough on Fields and can wait till next year?

First its going to take more than 3 first rounders IF Houston deals. Plus the Browns picks will be later in the round vs. teams like NY Jets and Miami and even Carolina.

Did you mean these to be in my mock draft thread? Philadelphia is all in on Hurts cause the owner has said HE is all in on Hurts. So no, Philly will not take a Qb at #6. A trade back is best as they can get Wrs in this draft later, but need more picks to rebuild with as they are cap strapped.
