Default Would you give up 3 first round picks for Watson?

I definitely would, in a heartbeat. He would make us a SB contender for the next 10-12 years. I doubt the Texans would trade him to us, but 3 first round picks would be too hard for them to say hell no. For the Colts, their 1st round picks are going to be lower tier, but the Texans are in Cap Hell.

It would be a tough call. With 40% of the roster as free agents, the cap will disappear quickly with his contract, but it would make us legit contenders for quite a while if Ballard could work some magic.

Here's how I look at it. Watson would be our 1st round pick this year, the next 2 years will probably be pretty damn low. So we have our franchise QB for a decade and the next 2 picks will be hit or miss based on our draft standing. To me this is a no brainer. Look at the teams left in the playoffs, the best QB's in the league.

You realize Watson could force the Texans to trade him to the Colts for a 7th round pick if he wanted to, right?
