Who cares? If you're not elite, then what does it matter.
Watson is obviously a starter in this league and has some great plays on his resume..... but he's never going to be the guy to put a team on his shoulders and carry them when everything is breaking down around him (say like down 20-10 in the Super Bowl with 10 mins left).....Heck, he was spotted 24 points in the playoffs and got blew out.... He can certainly win games in this league with the right talent around him, but that's about the extent of it....and that's probably about the same as 15 - 20 other QBs in the league.... |

I'll say this: for whatever reason the sports media annointed Watson and are far less critical of him than other qbs.

One of my biggest knocks on Deshaun is that he tries to run over defenders. He is not smart at all about sliding or going out of bounds. If the team expects you to be a franchise QB for 15-20 years, you damn well better get smart about this aspect of the game. People talk about Lamar Jackson being a short term QB in this league due to running so much, but he has a much smarter approach to avoid hits compared to Deshaun. |

Yeah, my sarcasm wasn't shinning through enough.
Texans have everyone but a few players on the trading block. Also, they probably won't have their first pick until pick 68? At least their cap situation isn't horrible. |

Ya'll are doing in this thread what the "experts" do when evaluating college talent: Judging the player by the team instead of the player himself.
The Texans ARE Deshaun Watson. There's no one else. They feature a RB that was washed up two seasons ago. Brandin Cooks who's what, on his 4th team in 6 seasons? When the Patriots, Rams and Saints decide they don't need you, that says something. Will Fuller who is, IMO, the most over rated WR in the league. He runs fast, big whoop. He has stone hands, he always injured and he doesn't change a defensive game plan unless there's a real #1 on the other side. 30 Year old Randall Cobb, an aging roster with NO DEPTH at all and what quite possibly could be the worst HC in the league. (Yeah we all remember the Romeo Crennel season, don't we?) Give this guy a stable front office, a creative HC and OC, and some legit weapons (you know, the things every successful young QB gets). The tools are all there. It's undeniable. Now get him some help so he can actually develop those tools into success. |

I'm just not that high on Watson. He's physically gifted but has some fairly significant mental issues, IMO. I'm not sure he's ever going to be a top 1/3 QB. |

Oh C'mon. You wanna argue Dak i'll hear you because he's criminally under rated. Carr was the laughing stock of the AFCW until Gruden got him a shiny new Ruggs, a top 5 RB and a top OL.

Will he be top 1-3? Probably not ever as long as Mahomes and Wilson are around. But top 10? For sure. You can build and sustain a good offense around this guy for years to come. |
