Texans are releasing star JJ Watt, source said. Come to Green Bay on a one year "prove-it" deal and then smash free agency after your Super Bowl ring!

He has health issues that keep him off the field. Veteran min contract is fine by me.

This spot is reserved for future use

When he can stay healthy, he’s amazing! I wonder if he would come here, and he has anything left in the tank.
If I were the Packers, I’d make a realistic attempt to get him.

Wrong side of 30. Hurt too often. 60% of snaps, max. Can get it done when he's on the field.

You can't let his salary get too high (unless it's based on snap counts or game played), but Watt was the only Texans defensive player to play over 1,000 snaps last year and over 90% of the defensive snaps taken.

He has been injured a lot lately, but if we only want to rush four, Z. Smith, Watt, Clark and Gary would make one hell of a group and let us focus on drafting CBs.

Also, DT usually suck at rookies, so even if we draft a DT in the 1st round, let him learn for the first year.

Throw in Keke, and you have the ability to rotate guys in pass rush situations and give them breathers.

I think you have the right idea of it: it takes a while for a rookie dlineman to pay off, so grabbing Watt and letting another guy sit and learn isn't the worst idea (and if the rookie shows some flashes, then all the better).

Speaking of Watt and the Packers...

Rumor has it that it's Green Bay or Cleveland. Pittsburgh is mentioned but word is he already rejected them. His brother was trying to recruit.

If he wants to get paid, Cleveland is his best bet. If he wants to chase a ring, Green Bay.

I think the Steelers don't behave a lot of cap, and they already have their good starting DEs... and I think they ask them to play two gap, and keep the LBers clean more than Watt would prefer.

That's the new Jets head coach's mantra, all gas no breaks... but I can't see him signing with the Jets if he wanted to get to the playoffs for sure.

The head coach used to be 49ers defensive coach and I believe best friends with LaFleur, and maybe one of them was the best man at the other wedding?

But I think he was just saying training hard, but I could be wrong.

I haven't heard any official rumors of GB, other than they like 11 other teams are interested.

beast, are you suggesting a well grounded and reasonable explanation in contrast to my (and the Packers twitterdom) wild speculation and reading way too into something? 😉

Mitochondria has 12 letters and if you swap cell for GB, it means that Rodgers is the powerhouse of GB. Watt to the Packers confirmed!

He should just sign right now with the Bills. Then this is done and over with.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Zero, I wonder if Wisconsin promised him the HC at some point in the future
