He showed up to not be fined. Under the CBA holdout fines cannot be waived anymore.

I imagine it’s gotta be quite a bit of private investigation but not sure what else they could do there. Hiring attorneys won’t do anything really besides give answers they likely already know that’s useless due to the variables we don’t

I would think it's still a huge gamble to trade a series of 1st for Watson. All it takes is for one of those many allegations to actually go to court and pan out and you're hosed.

When your job isn't guaranteed tomorrow, most GMs will absolutely dump the assets needed for a top 5 QB. If he gets thrown in jail in 2 years, it'll be the next GM's problem.

Some new info. More complaints were filed with the Houston Police. Two of the complaints are new women who weren't part of the 22 civil lawsuits. https://twitter.com/JohnBarrESPN/status/1419752095176175622?s=20 quote:Ten women have now filed complaints with Houston police about Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, according to Watson's attorney, Rusty Hardin.

Trading 3+ 1st is something you have to have the owner completely on board for. That is a franchise altering move, it's not cutting Randy Moss because he complained about the catering.

If any team is batshit insane enough to trade multiple firsts I hope they do it and then get what they deserve by Watson’s case having enough evidence to go to trial. And then have fun with that nightmare.

It’d be drat nice if justice was actually served here. poo poo like this really gets you thinking about how much poo poo happens in the world and how you can’t focus on it because phew there’s some tragedy committed on an hourly basis… but man a win or two would be dope. A guy like Watson actually paying for his actions… that’d be a large one

Feels like if teams knowingly trade for someone with multiple outstanding rape allegations against him then Kaepernick should sue the league again for coercion, but I'm sure that's not how things actually work.

Kaepernick will never win a collusion case because you'll never be able to prove the NFL's owners didn't all individually come to the conclusion he wasn't worth the trouble unless they were stupid enough to write it down somewhere and nothing that happens to, with or around Watson will change that

Kaep already settled with the league. The terms are obviously secret but I’d be astonished if he had grounds to sue again.

Collusion without explicit evidence is pretty much impossible to prove yeah.

...just...suspend him? Cut him? If you have any deals on the table at all take what you can get in a trade? This doesn't do anything for either of you. It is funny to think of Watson playing with the scrubs at the rear end end of a preseason game I guess.

I'm more upset that Jeff Driskel is 2nd It's a lost season. Start Davis Mills unless he's like, deer in headlights Nathan Peterman not ready, and if he stays that way all year cut the lot of them and draft three QBs next year

Based on that depth chart I think it will be very smart for the Texans to run the football and not try to do much else.
