    Are you asking questions just for the sake of asking questions?

    It really does. The Texans get their pick of qbs (which they ain't going to go anywhere without one) and the titans get one of the best wr to pair with Mariota.

    If hopkins weren't such a beast, ya'll wouldn't even get close to the #1 pick in the draft with 2 first round picks, and 2 seconds, if not more.

    I am assuming that the titans would consider that deal, but even with hopkins, they might not. Since Tunsil is such a beast.

    Interesting..

    realistically... they'll probably still ask for more value. Like DeAndre and a 2nd or something.

    But, you're gonna have to ask yourself if Jared Goff or Paxton Lynch is really going to be head and shoulders better than guys like Connor Cook or Carson Wentz

    also, how BoB value Hack vs the other QB come in play.

    If this was a draft where there was Mariota available and a team was already set with their QB willing to trade their 1st overall, I'd prolly would do it

    I also think, if I am the texans that I go all out to move up in the draft. But they probably won't. They are probably going to look at hackenburg in the first.

    You are looking at it with the right kind of logic.

    The main reason that the texans wont do a deal like this is IF THEY ARE WRONG and draft a qb bust, then they will be out of a job quick, since they gave up probably the best young receiver to come out in a while. It would be grounds for termination for real.

    But no risk no reward.

    Nobody here cares about your Titans and what you'd like to acquire for them.

    Wouldn't surprise me if they found a way to trade down and not get all that much value for the pick.... It's a roster that has much more needs than just a WR.

    They aren't trading down. They are highly committed to protecting Marcus Mariota, which means that they are going to make sure they can draft Laremy Tunsil.


    If anything they finagle something out of cleveland for the #2 pick in the draft.

    This thread makes the Texans performance yesterday look like the Chiefs performance yesterday.

    I don't quite understand what that means. But I expected that the texans fans hear to be grief-stricken over the deal.

    Anyway, I would assume that the titans value Laremy Tunsil more than they value Deandre Hopkins, so yall don't have anything to worry about.

    ah yes... The real super bowl. Who can win the draft between Tennessee and Cleveland, yet still not manage to actually build anything sustainable.

    I have a feeling that head-to-head toilet-bowl matchup could be going on for awhile...

    Many reasons why this wouldn't work, but the largest reason of which is the Titans would absolutely never hand the Texans the top pick as a way to get a franchise QB. Never in a million years.

    Strictly in terms of value it makes sense, but logically not at all.
