Well Hutchinson is probably off the board but after seeing Mills, Collins, Jordan, Wallow and Lopez all play meaningful snaps and play very well at times it is clear this draft, regardless of slot, will be in good hands with Caserio. I look forward to see what he can do with multiple 1’s and 2’s.
The Texans should try to trade down in the draft if they can get multiple #1's for their top pick. Perhaps trade down to the late teens and get a future #1 and take Matt Corral if they really like him. Rome wasn't built in a day and the Texans have needs all over the field. It would be nice to do a deal similar to what the Giants did, dealing with the Bears last year. I am sure there is pressure to win sooner than later, but I would be taking all calls from teams trying to move up through out the draft.... we move down and pocket future picks. The reality is that in the NFL (outside of QB) it isn't as simple as taking the best player, you need lots of good players and some quality depth.... you don't usually luck into success, you have to hit on guys in rounds 2-5.
I'm for trading down as long as it's within range to get a top CB like Booth or an OG like Green OT like Penning. So in other words trade down into the top 10-12 and pick up a 2023 1st, plus a 2022 3rd. Right now they have 4 top 100 picks and they really need to hit on atleast 3 out of the 4. I would be for using the Saints pick and 4-2 to move up into the 2nd to give me a real good shot at getting 4 guys that can be starter level players. Including hopefully a star level player at 3. If a trade down to say 10 happens give me a 10 yr starter like Linderbaum,Green, Booth. What I dont want Caserio to do is spend a high pick on a QB. If say Zappe is there in the 5th I would look at trading up to get him. There's risk involved in all of the QB's this year and I would rather take a later rd shot on a guy like Zappe than a guy like Corral or Willis early. Agreed on hitting on guys in rds 2-5. That was a big issue with both the RS and BOB years.
Ya I’m starting to lean that way since Hutchinson is unlikely. Trade Tunsil, grab Neal, and stop playing musical chairs with Howard.
Jags play the Jets. They can beat the Jets. If Lawrence is the franchise, then they have to go with Neal. Texans play Chargers, 49ers and the Zach Cunningham's new team. Lions can upset the Falcons and what if Green Bay sits out Rodgers in the last game.
They have Cam Robinson and just drafted Walker Little in the 2nd round last year. Don't think OT is high on their board.
I agree on those names as what will be available where we draft, which tbh is not bad at all also count me in on the don’t trade down camp..we need premium talent ASAP and you have it fairly evenly IF you pick top 5
