HOWEVER ... Carr + 1st R for Watson? I would strongly consider it. Carr is 29 and he'll be 30 in 2021. Watson is 25 and he'll turn 26 during the '21 season.
Getting Deshaun Watson means the Raiders window goes from ~3-4 years to ~6-8 years. IDK about you, but if given a straight choice, I'd rather have a legitimate playoff contender for 8 years, instead of 4.
