for Deshaun Watson and 2024 fifth

I mean, three first rounders is good, and I am thrilled this chapter can be closed. But... I have to imagine the Falcons and Panthers had better packages?

Eh, this isn't a funeral. It's a celebration.

I'm assuming each had a deal to clear the bar set by the Texans, and then the choice came down to who Deshaun selected. I guess $230 million guaranteed convinced him. I guess he didn't learn from taking the Texans money. He went out and picked a franchise almost as screwed up as the one he's leaving. The Browns turned years of tanking and high picks into one playoff appearance that ended in the divisional round.

Picking #3 and #13 in the first round is nice, that is, if they don't screw it up.

I'd really like to see them go after anything but a QB. As president of the Davis Mills Fan Club, I don't see QB as a pressing need right now....

I want to be in your DM fan club too Arky.
Speaking of #3 & #13, hey when are you going to put up your Texans' mock Draft ?

Eheh, the draft ain't my area.

The Texans are always unpredictable... usually they do the opposite of what makes the most sense.... Some people think they will trade away either #3 or #13 but not both. That could be a juicy deal for them if they play it right...

The radio guys were talking about how it's time for them to draft someone that brings the excitement - a playmaker with some charisma - someone who sells tickets. Another JJ Watt or a Watson before the issues. I agree.
