Does this mean they are out of the Watson sweepstakes? https://www.ninersnation.com/2021/1/31/22258286/49ers-garafolo-garoppolo-2021-staying-draft-offseason-plan

At first I thought for sure that they were trading up for Lance, and they still may do so but all signs are pointing to Jones. Shanny likes a certain type of QB and Jones fits that bill.

Hahaa. They are the good girls. Take the money, do the job and shut the F up about it.

That's gonna be the gameplan for Watson's Lawyers, to reverse the heat. To make him the victim of these "massage therapists". They wanted more money, they threatened to go public, expose him as a creep, etc. And of course they'll insist nothing sexually took place. Now that the girls must give their names watch how fast the tone changes. The Lawyer will try to expose them as gold digging whores.

True. They already know who they are drafting. They didn't trade away two #1 picks + on a crap shoot. It's no secret that they fell in love with Jones after his pro days and workouts, although I have no idea why. But then again Shanny loved Matt Ryan and Jones couldn't be more of a Matt Ryan clone. We'll see.

Haha. They really do like Jones for some reason and they aren't bluffing. Everyone knows Lawrence/Wilson are definitely going 1 & 2 and SF is locked into 3 so there's no reason to bluff. That being said I can't imagine trading all those draft picks to get Jones. I would definitely take a shot on Lance or Fields long before I wasted 3 first round picks on Jones.

Yeah, it's definitely turning into a shizz show.

Denver could probably stay put and get a QB now. Trading up to 4 would definitely get them their guy but who's worth the price? And if I'm Atlanta it's going to cost a fortune to move back.

He's done, it's too late. Especially if he starts cutting checks now. Everybody and their Grandmother will be coming forward for a piece of that.

Yup, the Broncos will give up 2 first rounders for him, haha. But in all seriousness the Darnold trade now gives Denver a shot at Fields or other. Carolina won't be drafting a QB, that's for sure.

I can definitely agree with that. And look at the typical coaches tenure nowadays. It seams like most teams are turning over coaches every 3 years

Ohhh thank God. Thank you SF. You have to love the Niners. "Former Eagles quarterback Nate Sudfeld has found a new home. The San Francisco 49ers on Wednesday afternoon announced that they have signed the 27-year-old to a one-year deal"

I guess the days of grooming your QB are done. There is so much at stake now that you need a return on your investment almost immediately or you move on.

The real issue here is, what exactly did the Texans know? Because if they received complaints and had knowledge that this was going on they can be brought into this lawsuit as well. And all in a sudden the NFL is liable. This could be huge!!!!

Agree 💯. Guilty or not he's ruined. It's not important what you did, it's what people think you did thats important. Unfortunately that's the world we live in. You can accuse anyone of anything with no repercussions.

Nike drops Watson, no surprise. https://www.aol.com/nike-suspend-texans-quarterback-watson-133540707-140927549.html

He's going to a team that has much better talent than he had in NY but most importantly Carolina still holds the #8 overall pick. If Darnold figures it out they can be real good, real fast.

That's not going to be an easy contract to move. There's just not a huge market for him right now.

Dam, they got more than I expected. But at the same time it's a good deal for Carolina to. They had to do something.

Agree, unless they plan on being 6-11 for the next few seasons they almost have to keep him.

Especially coming off a very serious injury.

In reality they'd take a conditional 7th round pick just to dump that horrible contract.

He's not worth a first or second. Nevermind that, look at the ears on Andrew Siciliano.
