Deshaun Trade Packages Part 2

I didn't say it was a conspiracy. I said that's just how it is. It makes it easy for people to get away with stuff like this.

 

THAT PICTURE TEXANS TWITTER SHOWED OF NICK ON THE PHONE......HE SHOULD'VE HUNG UP!

NICK IS NO GANGSTER.....HE SUCK

 

As an attorney, you should also know it is damn near impossible to prove when it is he said she said as well. Sure, there will always be liars in both sides, but this whole story is shady as hell from the whole stalking reaching out to unknowns, when the team had professional masseuses at his disposal. It's even stranger doing it during the height of a pandemic when he was around a team of players every week.

 

That's silly. We should believe just because a woman said so? We should take allegations seriously, but check out the story. The fact is that the grand jury didn't think there was enough evidence to prosecute on 9 separate cases. Emmit Till was killed over a fake sexual assault allegation.

 

Women* dozens of them.

I really hope you and his other supporters have your women safe. Or you might have offered them up to Watson as sacrifice.

 

Absolutely ****ing disgraceful. Not to mention entirely out of nowhere. I hate this trade on soooo many levels.

 

This was all about money. Watson asked for a re-worked contract last summer, while the criminal investigation was going on. If he had gotten it, he would have played for the Texans. All the BS about trust was crap. His agent saw an opportunity to ask for more money and took it....even with the investigations.

 

So either Caserio didn’t see this coming even though it happened to him already or he was perfectly content with getting the minimum vs maximizing the return. Not good either way.

 

How was he going to maximize his return when there was only ONE team willing to give Watson a re-worked contract? Without another team, the Browns were bidding against themselves. When the re-work contract was the stumbling block for all the NFC teams. They couldn't do it with their cap issues. When Cleveland said yes, it was over.

 

But DW4 didn’t know who or if anyone was willing to rework his deal. Caserio essentially let anyone willing to pay the cover in despite a few “reportedly” being a lot prettier than the other.

He denied the Colts which is understandable. No reason he couldn’t have denied the Browns outside of DW4 stating he’ll only waive his NTC for them, which he’d have no way of knowing without the opportunity to negotiate with them.

 

what? lol.

Why would he deny the Browns’ request? They met the 3 - 1st buy-in. Caserio was getting 4 teams bidding in Watson. What happened was the degree of contract re-work that Watson’s agent was requesting. No-one thought a team would agree to that. 3 didn’t, 1 desperate team did.

The contract re-work was not a thing until after Watson met with teams. Watson’s team held that back. The Browns heard about it after they were eliminated and the Panthers were dropped because of the refusal to re-work. Watson had no intention of going to Browns until the Saints, Panthers, and Falcons all refused to re-work the contract to the degree Watson wanted. The Browns got desperate because of Mayfield’s trade request. There was nothing Caserio could do after that. Watson’s agent was counting on one desperate team and they got it with the Browns.

The Falcons thought they were the team a d were negotiating to trade Matt Ryan.

Once $80 million more was on the table, Watson was going to wait the Texans out. Caserio wanted this over and needed to move on. With the other 3 teams out, his leverage was gone and took the deal to move the Texans forward.

 

As far as I’ve heard, this is basically right on the money. The Browns thing came out of nowhere, and the reworked contract basically blindsided everyone. It was a money grab, plain and simple. My issues is that, as usual, the Texans came out in the short end of the trade. I’m so ****ing tired of being constantly worked by other organizations when it comes to making a trade. Regardless of if you plan to keep him or not, you should have gotten at least Baker Mayfield out of this. The Browns were obviously desperate, it seems inconceivable to me that Caserio didn’t get a better return.

 

I don't think his leverage was gone at all. We can still just refuse to trade him. We are gonna suck either way who cares if he sits again. The Browns on the other hand were so desperate they gave Deshaun a guaranteed 230 million dollars. They woulda caved eventually.

Just activate Deshaun, and if he refuses to show up fine him. It was clearly about money too him so he would have eventually relented to a trade to more teams.

 

You are proving my point that Caserio was fine with the minimum.

 

No..he was handcuffed by the NTC.

 

You are going to waste 2 seasons by doing that. Texans were ready to move on. You are not going to force a player to play. He was not going to relent. He could fake an injury or just play bad. You are wasting time and you need to let Mills play. People were being fed this was going to be a huge haul, but were discounting the NTC. There will be changes in contacts because the NFL doesn’t want this to happen again.

 

Hey it was better than the Hopkins trade so let’s be happy about that at least

 

He was but the NTC does not equate to free agency either. If other teams presented better offers, those should have been DW4's choices. If those teams don't give into his demands, then it's on DW4 to either take what they are offering or name other team(s) he wants to go to. If this was all about money as you stated, DW4 still had no idea who or if anyone was willing to give him what he wanted.

 

Trade was fine I don’t get all the hate on here… Deshaun holding all the teams involved hostage for a new contract no doubt hurt the compensation. But three 1st is nothing to scoff at.
