Here is my view on everything going on so far with Watson.
1. The Houston Texans right now are an absolute dumpster fire of an organization.
2. What else would Caserio and Culley say today? Of course they are going to say they have zero interest in trading him, saying anything else on January 29th just hurts them. Being committed to Watson today is all you really can do.
3. I do think Watson is upset and right now today does indeed want out as being reported.
4. No matter what, other teams are going to keep calling Houston. I bet you 2/3 of the league calls them, even teams that don't necessarily need a QB. But any chance to "improve immediately" is worth a call.
5. I don't think this story is going to end anytime soon. I think this is something that could potentially drag on for months.
6. I do think the Texans will do everything in their power to smooth things over with Watson.
7. The Texans are going to get teams offering historic compensation, probably 3 first round picks plus more.
8. I do think the Dolphins are one of the 2/3 that call. I think they probably would be willing to make a decent offer.
9. I also think the Dolphins are very happy and do believe in Tua as the long term franchise quarterback. But Waston is a top 5 QB today and Tua hopefully will be a top 5 QB in the future. But that is why Flores and Grier at least weigh it.
10. Calling the Texans and considering a trade for Watson is not an indictment against Tua or a sign the team doesn't believe in him.
11. In the end, I strongly feel that Houston will somehow make it work with Watson and there is no trade to any team.
