    Very nice move not giving up the number 1.He eventually replaces Glenn,giving us perhaps the best,young corner combo in the NFL.
    So we're not going after a corner early,hmmm.
    Bring on Mike Williams.

    This is a pretty amazing trade. I am happy with it as long as we didn't give up the first rounder....

    the word is that it was for the second round and one of the third round picks.

    Some message boards are reporting that we gave up our second rounder and one of our thirds.

    Wow. Huge trade and great move if a first rounder wasn't given up.

    Dunta and Phillip. Nice secondary.

    That may be the funniest line I've ever read.

    A message board being cited as a source! :D

    This is a very nice trade for the Texans. I wonder though, if this means we are going to exclusivly draft a LB, DT, or DE in the draft.

    Makes me wonder if someone like Rolle is still available at 13, will we pass on him or add him to make our secondary even better.

    2nd and 3rd seems steep.

    I don't know what to say I'm happy we've done something but just not sure if we did something good

    I can almost guarantee they would pass on Rolle. We re-signed Faggins this offseason so we now have Dunta, Glenn, Buchanon and Faggins at corner.

    I think now we'll either see Merriman or Ware at 13, or a trade down for extra picks.
