When agreements drag out it is generally because of contractual terms. Watson and his agent are 'probably' looking at an offer from New Orleans and Atlanta with different guarantees and similar but different Ts&Cs regarding conduct. Watson's Houston contract is only relevant for 24hours then the destination team can restructure it so I am sure Watson and his agent are also looking at what the restructure from each team looks like.

As far as Jameis Winston, he has had an offer from New Orleans from earlier in the off-season, him not being a Saint is on him. He is gambling that the Watson thing falls through and New Orleans panics and gives him a better deal.

Yeah, I get it... I understand that its a huge decision and he and his agent need to figure out what makes sense for them. And, maybe if it wasn't between us and ATL, it would be less nerve-wracking... But, come on... I still want him to come here, but most of all, I just wanna know one way or the other, so we can focus on other things.

Dennis Allen with a hell of a start to his tenure… Whiff on Deshaun Watson and alienate the players who were included in the potential trade.

Try this, put your self in his shoes. 26yo, single, not only are you making a decision that a potential $100MM future implication but you are gifted with something that is very rare in this league especially at his age.

When was the last time a QB under 30 had the fortune of being able to decide where he goes? QB of his caliber are generally long term at the team they were drafted by, franchise tagged, or traded without much choice. If I were his friend id say '***K the fans, take the time to make the right decision for you'.

Now, if he is out getting a massage and not really pining on the decision then screw him.

The only thing worse than being a Saints fan right now and waiting for this decision, is being a Falcons fan, because their team already sucks. XD

I think the Watson to ATL is a done deal. Matt Ryan pushing his roster bonus until Tuesday gives him and another team time to explore a trade destination. We need to move on.....

The NFL is a cutthroat business. I hope Atlanta gets no help and die with Ryans salary & potential cap hit.
