Three 1sts + 2 assets seems to be the baseline - I'm guessing they'll want more. And if you want Deshaun you'll be competing with others, so it will likely cost more, a lot more. Perhaps it's a good thing we missed the playoffs rather than having a pick in the late teens/early twenties.

So what are YOU willing to give up? Everyone's screaming about the guys they want but never talk about potential cost - so what are your limitations if you have them? I imagine the two assets will need to be either promising youth, or established stars. Willing to give up three 1sts + two of Delpit/JOK/Newsome/Chubb/Ward? Maybe you say yes to Delpit + Ward + three 1sts and Nick Caserio demands that you add on a 2022 2nd round pick for it to be a done deal - do you say yes?
No team is going to pay that. That answers the question.
They didn't even have that deal earlier this year before Watson had to sit all year and before the FBI announced they were getting involved into the investigation. Which is what caused the dolphins to cancel the deal.

So it's laughable. I want $100,000 for my 10-year-old Camaro I'm sure someone wants it right?

Panthers should give up 3 1s and CMac

Depends on the color.

Watch the Texans come back and say Keenum instead of Baker and it’s a deal!
 
Browns traded the Deshaun Watson pick to Houston back in 2017 because his agent let the Browns know he didn't want to come to Cleveland. Not sure he's reached a point where he wants to come to Cleveland now, and he's got a no-trade clause to stop the trade if he doesn't like it.

I ask this because I truly don't know, not to challenge:

Did Watson say he didn't want to come to Cleveland because he didn't want to be here, or because of some of the things Hue said? I thought I remembered it being a "I didn't want you anyway" thing, much like Teddy Bridgewater when the Browns took Manziel instead.

It was something I heard in passing that sounded true, but I don’t know for sure what happened in what order.

DeShaun Watson and 3 first round picks for Ben Simmons and 3 first round picks works in the trade machine
 
Reflecting on the remaining four QBs, one is God-tier, and one is really there because of his Defense.

But the two youngest QBs, Burrow and Allen, are guys who have used each off-season to really work on, not only their games, but their bodies.

Both have become even more sturdy and athletic.

And, I believe, both engaged QB gurus to work on the finer points of their craft.

People have been commenting on how much of an outlier Allen is, considering how raw he was coming into the NFL. And it seems he understood that because he has spent each offseason working his ass off.

Its almost as if working to improve one's self, mentally and physically, pays off.
