I don't care what he said to McNair.
I care that he doesn't want to be here and just skipped 6 games. I care that he's an above average player these days and 32 years old and has seen his best days. I care that while he can help protect Watson, the timeline of his remaining good days does not match up with when Watson has a chance to win. I care that he has only one year left after this lost season. I care that he has no guaranteed money left and it costs nothing to trade him. I care that we got a 2nd round pick and a 5th round pick back. And I care that this was our last chance to get any value for him.
If this trade was reversed and we sent out a 2nd rounder for a discontented 32 year old LT you would be pouring out the same stream of invective about the same people.
