I think Watson is an underrated deep threat. He's a pretty athletic guy too.
Watson ran the 40 in 4.43 seconss vs MVS at 4.37 and hes younger. [Reply]

I like Watson. But I don't remember too many big plays from Watson in the Playoffs. MVS has had a major impact against the Bengals, Bills, Ravens, and Niners in the last 2 Playoff runs. [Reply]

Let the other teams squander their draft capital and screw their salary caps trading for guys who aren't going to put them over the top.
Man I really wanted Mvs gone last season and for good reason. He’s obviously not in high demand anywhere else. That being said I actually kind of like Mvs here more than Watson. If we had other WRs freeing up Watson that would be one thing. But if we can’t do that at least Mvs can open up some stuff underneath and allow us to use worthy in a lot more ways. I hope we add someone else but until we do, I think Mvs helps us more than Watson at this point. If we add another WR, that’s a different story. [Reply]
His base this year is 1.125 million the issue though his contract has 41 million guaranteed if Cleveland were to move him they literally paid him 41 million dollars for 6 games...
They'd probably want a 1 just for the money they ate.
It’s Cleveland. You see what they gave up for Watson? [Reply]
What does "he's not in high demand elsewhere" have to do with anything?
No shit, there's a reason these guys are available. But as we've seen with Hunt and JJSS, Maybe Andy and company are better than anyone at getting things out of them? [Reply]
