Trading for him makes no sense as they aren’t a serious contender even with Stafford.

WFT would be a better fit in the NFCE.

49ers or WFT make the most sense, to me.

The 49ers with Stafford are the class of that division again. Biggest question will be if they can reinforce their secondary.

If he goes there, they’re my pick to be the team trying to deny the Chiefs a 3-peat.

They'd be fucking morons to do that

But its Detroit, so you know they will

Indy, New England, and Washington make the most sense to me, in that order.

Cap space and all have a 1st round pick to make it happen. I can't imagine a world where it's not a 1, future 1, and a mid-round pick but you never know how bad they want to trade. A first this year has to be on the table IMO.

Trading Drew Bledsoe within the division worked out okay for the Faketriots but they did have Brady/Belichick.

Yup. If they could stay healthy that's a very good team.

What I was told days ago by a trusted NFL source was Watson had zero interest in Denver and Stafford wanted warm weather. Someone should tell him Denver has 300 days of sunshine. Don’t mention the other 65.

Has Woody noticed that sunshine isn’t the same as warm?

It looks like they can cut Ford and get out of almost all of that. Between that and Jimmy G cut or traded, it frees up a lot of $$.

Spend that on Stafford and use draft/FA to improve at CB and DE or DT, and they’re right back in there, being dangerous.

Idk. If Miami is over Tua I think a combo of him and the #18 pick is more than enough for Detroit. Miami gets to keep that valuable #3 pick and all of their other ones. Grab Sewall or a WR for Stafford and they can take the AFCE easily imo.

For Detroit, they get a young QB, another 1st for their troubles. Now they go in another direction with their #7 plus they an extra first to boot.

I'm thinking Miami is going to go all-in on Watson. Send Houston back the #3 overall plus and be a serious contender for a long time.

That would make sense. I'd probably do that if I was them but if they wanna upgrade while keeping some of their haul. This would the move to make.

They are not.

Miami just hired Charlie Fry who has worked with Tua to be his QB coach. Now if the Dolphins can swing for Watson you do it in a second because I think it makes them the second best team in the AFC. Still, not sure it will happen.
