Houston may have a star QB, but have no draft capital or cap space to build around Watson.
They are either going to have a bad 2021 season with no draft capital this year and Watson sitting out during the season OR have a bad 2021 season with extra first round picks in 2022 and 2023. I'd rather have the latter.

Agreed. This is why it's better to just deal a disgruntled player than call his bluff and have to put up with it until he does get dealt.
We could've gotten way more than a 3rd and a 5th for Trent and a third for Kirk if he had just acknowledged the inevitable and put them on the block. Not only does it make us look bad, in regards to Kirk here we are 3 seasons after he left and we've ran through umpteen qb's looking for his replacement.
