IMO we are trying to sign Andrews and possibly a WR. Guys are still getting paid, so we need some more wiggle room.Seems like they are trying to max cap space, I assume something is inbound. I fear it is Watson......
It's quite refreshing having what seems to be a very competent GM. For all the grief he gets, he is moving us in the right direction.If he doesn't, they will just release him.
Shrewd move. Gets Lawson off the books, without taking the big cap hit.
they aren't cutting mckinneyIf he doesn't, they will just release him.

Cut him start a rookie. Named Micahlooking to clear cap space probably.
Yay more DW to Mia postsI do not believe the Texans will be trading Watson until after June 1st.
If they were to trade him now to the 49ers or any other team, the Texans would take on $21.6 million in dead cap money. And if they were to keep him, they'd pay him only $15.94 million in 2021. Which means trading him now would cost the Texans almost $6 million more than keeping him.
On that date, the Texans can trade Watson and take on a dead-cap hit of just $5.4 million. Meaning if they trade him on June 1 or after, they will save more than $10 million in cap space for 2021. So the Texans have to wait until June 1 at the earliest to trade Watson
