I think there's a lens through which this trade is ultimately seen as bad for the Texans, but they had to do something for Watson. In reality, looking at this trade in context with the Clowney trade, they probably could have achieved their goals without giving up as much, especially getting fleeced for Clowney. They see blood with Luck out thought, and couldn't do much without protecting Watson. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudsOilers Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 For the 2019 Texans, the collective of moves does make them better as at least they are trying to protect Watson better. Of course, Watson creates some of the protection problems and that's the rub with a player like him. As long as he makes up for it with explosive splash plays, you can live with it. Stills isn't great but certainly makes their top 3 WR's good. Defensively, Martin & Mingo may actually schematically fit the Texans scheme better than they did with the Seahawks as both are 3-4 OLB's but undersized edge rushers in a 4-3. From the Titans perspective, this probably hurts for 2019. Long term, it's better given the picks Houston won't have but both teams are in win now mode anyway.

I think its more likely about Tua/Herbert and having extra capital/leverage. Can you really afford to suck that bad for two years? Most owners/fans are not that patient.

BudsOilers Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 13 hours ago, Tex in a Can said: No way he's worth 2 1st round picks and a second. Oline is way overvalued now better sign Conklin and maybe even Kelly. It probably is but it's systemic across the league. College football does not produce players on the OL that have any clue how to block in the NFL. Thus, if a guy proves he can play well on this level, he's going to get paid.

Last year he had a good year but the idea he is now one of the best is laughable. He has to string together multiple good seasons before he earns it. The most telling fact in all of this is the fact the Dolphins traded him. Teams dont trade stud LTs. Its arguably the 2nd most important position on the field behind QB. I knew he was bad as a rookie. Like I said, I haven't watched him and was surprised to see so many saying this. Numerous media folks seem to feel pretty strongly about him now so I'm assuming he started living up to the initial hype coming out. Regardless, Texans still gave up a ton. This was from Baldy back in July. OILERMAN, and Mythos27 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
