The picture is beginning to come into focus with the Deshaun Watson saga. After over a year of trade speculation, general manager Nick Caserio and the Houston Texans finally appear well positioned to trade their former franchise quarterback.
The quarterback has gone through an extensive process whereby Houston has signed off on preliminary trade packages and authorized teams to speak to Watson. In the five days since Watson was cleared of all criminal charges by a grand jury, four serious candidates have emerged.
The New Orleans Saints. The Carolina Panthers. The Cleveland Browns. The Atlanta Falcons. Three NFC South squads trying to position themselves for the post-Brady era and a Cleveland team that is finally ready to compete with the big boys of the AFC.
