    Watson himself won't allow the Texans to be a 2 or 3 win team, I see 5 wins at least. Remember, we have only played 1 loss or undefeated teams besides Jacksonville. When the schedule becomes easier, Watson will carry us to some victories. Also don't forget by the end of the season a lot of teams will be trying to tank because of draft positioning while the Texans have no incentive to tank.

    His numbers will be gaudy this season playing catch up and trying to keep up.
    I’m looking for progression in making the right play and quick reads.
    Last couple games are better in that department

    Hargreaves and Scarlett are a huge problem for the defense. They're both awful.

    Texans still manage to lose during the bye week. This time, they lost to COVID

    That's ridiculous. It's like some people just want the idea of a 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd and 3rd on the roster, not the players selected with those picks but the numerical value. It sounds good when you're on franchise mode but you just can't leave Watson hanging. Maybe one of Cooks or Fuller but not both. And trade Howard who is just growing at the RT position? The 0-line is basically free styling out there with no cohesiveness.

    A 2nd for Watt and a 4th for Kenny would be ideal. Hate the idea of having to chase for Widereceivers when you had a hOF here.

    But the rookies get some valuable playing time in the loss?

    If watt isn’t traded I consider that a loss on the bye week

    I know I’m in the minority but I do not want Fuller traded unless it’s for a 1st. He’s probably our best weapon right now. Since that’s not going to happen, no deal for me.

    2nd or 3rd I think is best you’ll get for him. Upcoming free agent with lengthy injury history.
    I’d be ecstatic for a 1st though

    Bye - 48
    Texans - 0

    Texans trade all their draft picks to BYE after the game.

    Haven't watched much of Fuller this past season but the 2 issues you mention above we would be lucky to get a 2nd for him. Don't know much about AJ Dillon but he was a 2nd round draft pick for the Packers that is not contributing this season for them. Is he worth swapping for Fuller if they throw in a 4th or 5th as well?

    I prefer trading players for draft picks but I understand if we can get good value for a player like Dillon that is behind in the depth chart to two really solid backs. Crazy to think the Packers 1st and 2nd round picks are backups.

    I like AJ but I also think you can get similar level backs as udfa, the value just isn’t there. If it’s for a player I would want impact defensive positions personally.
