Most of the contracts would be bad at their cap number with their new team....so most of those salaries aren't really tradeable.

That means they will have to work out extensions and kick out EVEN MORE money down the road. The Saints are looking at another year of no money to spend.

Oh and if you bring in Watson, that means you'd probably pay 3 first round picks. So you rebuild without premium draft capital.

Plus Watson just lost a season. Why would he want to waste several more peak years?

Josh McCown reportedly is the favorite to become the next Texans coach

It looks like the Texans really are going to do it.

John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports that former NFL quarterback Josh McCown is the favorite to become next head coach of the Texans.

McCown is getting a second interview, a clear indication that a former player with no college or pro coaching experience could indeed go straight from playing to serving as an NFL head coach.

McClain notes that McCown has “earned a lot of respect as a future coaching candidate during his long NFL career.” The key word, in our view, is future. As in, after serving for a period of time as an assistant coach, working his way up the ladder and learning the inner workings of what to do and what not to do when ultimately doing the job.

Report: Tom Brady retirement announcement likely coming soon

Logic and common sense point to Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady retiring. A new report indicates that the logical, commonsensical decision will be announced soon.

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, citing “several sources who are within Brady’s inner circle,” explains that these sources anticipate Brady “most likely will reveal his future plans in the coming days.”

As one unnamed source explained it to La Canfora, Brady wants to give the Buccaneers a full opportunity to make post-Brady plans. Brady also doesn’t want to upstage the playoffs, as the Super Bowl teams prepare to become locked in.

La Canfora writes that there is “growing anticipation” that the official announcement is coming this week.

The possibility of a sudden Brady retirement sprang up out of nowhere in the days preceding the playoff loss to the Rams. But few seemed stunned by Brady’s abrupt reversal; he’d said on multiple occasions that he’ll play through the 2022 season and then decide whether to stick around for a year or two after that.

Just before the 2021 season began, Brady said, “Hopefully, I’ll be here a long time. For many years.”

Retirement makes sense given that Brady recently confirmed longstanding beliefs that he doesn’t want a farewell tour. If he plays in 2022, he’d get one — whether he likes it or not. Indeed, it now seems that years of saying that he’ll play through the age of 45 were aimed at least in part at preventing a farewell tour from ever happening, with Brady knowing his last season would come before 2022.
