Twitter: Eagles and Texans trade talks heating up for Watson

How this thread belongs in the Fan Zone, I don't know. Why even have an NFL Zone if threads like this don't go in it?

Oh, here we go...........

Fishing for trolls. That didn't take long to get a bite.

No surprise here all........the probability of this has been out there while in league circles. Frankly, I think you can pencil a done deal......just a matter of time( likely within the next week or so ). BTW, and this is just me, but I don't think his legal issues are anywhere near as serious as some seem to think. In other words, I'm guessing he can make it disappear with a few million dollars.

I'm not singling out anyone but it takes a real dirtbag to not take sexual assault seriously. There is far too much smoke around Watson for there to be no fire. The commish absolutely should not allow this player to play while these many cases remain in limbo.

Not fake at all. I believe this is a conversation worth having, however, the thread belongs elsewhere.

Agree 100% but who was sexually assaulted......from my understanding, each woman had the option of declining and walking away. Some actually did.......

That's a question for a judge and jury.

So are you of the opinion that if a woman says no during it’s not sexual assault she just changed her mind? Or if she dresses a certain way she’s asking for it? Just curious because this is a really bad way to look at sexual assault.

Pretty bizarre that the eagles would give up draft picks for a guy who seems to be the nfl's number one villain at the moment.

Goodell hasn’t done squat so far. NFL will give him a slap on the wrist and sweep it under the carpet. Like it never happened.

highly doubtful in today’s environment…he’s going to be held accountable if he did indeed commit these acts but it sounds like there is an investigation needed

Unless they lower their price, there's no way the trade happens.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Texans likely will just have to cut him or pay him not to play. Texans are stuck with toxic waste.

Somehow, don’t ask me how, but it just might be the unbelievable case the Texans have to give up draft picks to get rid of him.

 

[Stash]

How can you possibly trade for a player that may never play again?

Shh! Don’t ruin it!

these threads get moved once the story ages. It’s a divisional rival and it will get the most immediate discussion here

This isn't the Divisional Rival Zone. And until the Eagles make the trade, this topic isn't even worthy of that.

If you don't have a blue check mark I don't listen to ya.

That could be one of ya'll for all we know lol

Watson will instantly be the best QB in the division, but I believe we have the better overall team.

Watson will be a difference maker instantly though.
