I think it's fairly obvious nobody is going to be trading for Watson any time soon.

Good summary of timeline here on Reddit: Reddit Timeline.
Looks like some of the women contemporaneously told people about the alleged assaults. Not good for Watson.

if he avoids a criminal conviction or even if he gets a conviction on some lesser charge that avoids jail time he's definitely going to play again in the NFL. he's 26 and is an ELITE NFL qb.

Not taking sides one way or another but has Wastson been charged with a crime? Is he under police investigation? Honestly haven't followed this much. However him getting suspended has nothing to do with either of the above....

That was entirely predictable.
Buzbee is full of hot air. That doesn't mean his clients are not telling the truth, but to the layperson it doesn't look like their a lawyer is handling this in a way that increases credibility.
buzbee said earlier this week that the evidence would be submitted hopefully by today.
edit: buzbee said he'd issue another statement by today

Huh, last week he said a packet would be with Houston PD by Monday, the Monday that was 4 days ago.
looks like i misremembered his rebuttal to rusty hardin earlier this week.

Now is the time on sprockets when we LOL TEXANS for not taking the 4 1sts offers
Thanks I did not think you were relaying inaccurate info, I was just pointing out that he said the same thing last week. This guy has quickly evolved into "I'll believe it when I see it" status.
This article was from last week:

HOUSTON — The attorney representing the women accusing Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson of civil or sexual assault said Saturday he plans to submit affidavits and evidence to Houston authorities next week.
Attorney Tony Buzbee said his team plans to submit the documents to the Houston Police Department and the Harris County District Attorney on Monday morning. Buzbee said he also plans to request a grand jury consider the evidence provided.

This sounds so much like the opening saga of when girls do porn was exposed. From one person that came forward, to a host of women, to terrible allegations. Started as a civil action and then became criminal.
Watson flew some of these women in. I'm curious how close his actions, if proven, come to sex trafficking.

what's odd? Wasnt buzbee supposed to deliver the docs to the police 5 days ago? (Monday)
His own words, by the way.
So, what about the take is odd, exactly?

The continuum of opinions from absolute guilt to absolute innocence is pretty interesting.

I am struggling to find a plausible explanation for what I've read that doesn't paint Watson in a really bad way.

Which is a fairly typical reaction most would have if they just read one side of a lawsuit.

and, by extrapolation, plantiff's counsel should be submitting documents to law enforcement....as they said they would last week....and as they said they would this week....yet this action has yet to be taken. curious.

NDA he asked his massage therapists to sign is out.  
You know, as you do.
Edit: Watson’s camp will be able to spin the NDA and, on its own, not much turns on it. But in the bigger picture it does not look good.
Watson’s team is really going to have to carefully thread the needle to put together a remotely believable defence.

Not necessarily. It's usually not too hard to imagine what the other side will say in their defense. I'm not coming up with anything that makes sense.

So you’re going with they are fabricating evidence? There is an entire story about it. I agree it is boiler plate junk. Precisely the sort of thing Watson himself would pull off the internet and ignorantly believe protected him.

I don’t like how things look for Watson, but this NDA piece is ridiculous. Who is this lady even posting it? It’s been up all day and has like 6 retweets. Why should I believe her?
also is not evidence. It’s literally a blank NDA that no one has signed.

I may have read some bad info but understood one of the plaintiff signed it, returned it, and asked for a signed copy back but didn’t get one.
Yes this is a possibility and I wanted to add since one instance was alleged to have occurred in CA and another in GA we do have 3 different jurisdictions that could decide they have enough to move forward with criminal charges.

What she has there is a blank NDA that has Watson’s named typed in at the top. They claim the victim signed one but she doesn’t have a copy, they haven’t claimed to have seen a signed NDA, there is zero proof a signed NDA exists.

Yet. If she signed and scanned to him she may still have a copy. And, if she can prove he sent one to her the damage is done (so far as an NDA can do any damage). Whether she signed it or not is irrelevant.

You mean other then you saying you read one side, said it looks bad, can't offer a plausible explanation for his behavior and then proceeded to say that you can imagine his defense and none of it would make sense. Yea, that's really weird of me to think you are waiting for him to have his say before determining his guilt.
