The fans of Atlanta went wild when it came out that the Falcons might have interest in Deshaun Watson, but the excitement of having Watson was quickly followed by wondering just how much it would take to acquire him.

John Fricke and Hugh Douglas spoke during Wednesday's morning show about the kind of package that Houston might accept and it involved giving up not just picks, but a fan favorite as well.

It's been stated from the beginning that the Texans asking price for Watson was 3 first round picks at a minimum, but some wonder if a combo of picks and players might be the way to go.

Former SEC and NFL QB Clint Stoerner, who hosts an afternoon show for 610 Sports in Houston, tweeted out the package he'd ask the Falcons for if he were the Texans.

While the guys strongly disagree with the package that Stoerner put together, they do think that another defensive standout could be involved.

"With one year left on his contract, if he (Grady Jarrett) doesn't want to re-work that deal, I think that legitimately could be the case," says Fricke.

Grady Jarrett is set to enter the final year of his $68 Million deal before becoming an unrestricted free agent heading into the 2023 offseason.
