If it looks like quite a few groups have just lately moved themselves away from making an attempt to get Watson on their roster, that’s as a result of a number of have backed away (no less than publicly). It wasn’t that way back that each the Philadelphia Eagles and the Miami Dolphins made it clear they wouldn’t be excited by making an attempt to commerce for Watson.
That mentioned, the Eagles and Dolphins are in barely totally different positions than another groups all through the NFL. Each franchises have younger quarterbacks who may proceed to develop already on their roster.
It’s price noting that different groups within the league is perhaps keen to make a commerce for Watson.
However, because it stands proper now, the Steelers aren’t going to be a kind of franchises. It’s not precisely clear what they’ll do at quarterback, however they’ve bought a couple of choices. They might hope for a solution within the draft, discover a free agent, make a commerce for somebody aside from Watson, or tank and hope for a greater draft class subsequent yr.
