Would you do this trade?

Yes!!!
Even with Watson possibly wanting out, I think it would take Kirk, #14, and probably Justin Jefferson in the package to get Watson to Minnesota. And I'd consider doing that.

Quicker than I could type "yes"

and absolutely no to trading JJ

I would give Cousins, 14, our 3rd and any two players not named Cook, Jefferson, Thielen, O'Neil, Kendricks and Hunter.  

This gets my vote for most ridiculous post ever. Houston just paid Watson a monster signing bonus, and now they’re going to take on Cousins salary for the next 2 years and only get pick #14? Vikings would have to find a taker for Cousins, maybe get back a third round pick, and then offer Houston 3 first round picks, 2 second picks, and 2 thirds. Which the Vikings aren’t in a position to do because they need the lower salaries of younger players with their salary commitments.

I'm right there with you on this. One easy decision.

Well since the Texans don't have a coach I would give them Cousins, the 14th pick, 2 players not named Jefferson or Cook, and throw in Zimmer.

Here's my answer, or should i say question? Does a fart blow in the wind?

well possibly not, if a wet fart......

keep in mind a “trade” may be initiated by Watson himself....if he wants out......he could start by posting “cryptic tweets” like “GET ME THE HELL OUTTA HERE”

Not with the current head coach.

And btw jj watt might try to get to Pittsburgh .

If so, hunter to Texans might fit.

Lolz let's dump Kirk because he has a .500 record and trade away our only pick in the first two rounds to acquire a highly paid QB who has a career record of 28-25. Should definitely help in addressing the main issues, which are obviously OL and DL.

Yes, I would do that trade.

In a related story, I would also accept a lap dance from Kate Upton.

Both have the same chance of happening.

The Texans aren't going to trade Watson. But more realistically an offer would have to be much larger than this. Think in the neighborhood of 3-4 1st round picks, a few 2nd/3rds, and likely a promising player. That just is a deal that won't happen because you'd add Watson but be at such a resource disadvantage you couldn't build anything sustainable around him.

Wait, you think it would require three, maybe four 1st round picks, two 2nd-3rd round picks, and a player for Watson? Lolz please tell me you aren't serious because it would take much less than that.

I'm nearly certain of it considering the team trading the picks would likely be offering mid to late 1st's. You are trading for a top 5 NFL QB on a discounted deal since the Texans paid and keep the entire signing bonus of $20M on their salary cap. 

In 2016 the Rams traded the two 1st round picks, two 2nd round picks, and two 3rd round picks to trade up to #1 and select Jared Goff. In 2012 the Redskins traded three 1st round picks and a 2nd round pick to trade up to #2 for RG3. In both of these scenarios the presumptions is that the team trading up would be getting a high-end starter. 

So tack a premium on for knowing you are getting a top 5 QB who is 25 years old. Its insane but if you take the RG3 deal you for sure can argue for three 1sts plus at least one second. So take your choice of four 1sts and a 2nd or three 1sts and a combination of 2nd and 3rds. Its insane but what the market dictates. There would be multiple teams bidding for his services even at that exorbitant price.

There is absolutely no way in hell it would require that much to get Watson, no way.

With that said, what do you perceive he would be traded for if they were to actually move him?
