T0mShane Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Word from the NFL meetings is the Texans are trying hard to deal the first pick in the draft. They want to move down and acquire extra selections. Sources say they might have a trade partner in the Bills, who appear interested in moving up. It is unclear who the Bills would want in a trade-up scenario. Some believe they would move up for a quarterback. They also could make good use of an offensive tackle such as Greg Robinson. And it would be something to see them pair Mario Williams with either Jadeveon Clowney or Khalil Mack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 How is that possible what with all the amazing QB talent on the board!? I said it in the middle of the season, but you shouldn't be surprised when someone like Mettenberger is the best QB to come out of this class. I know I'm in the minority, but the top 4 or so guys being talked about just aren't that good. It's basically 2011 all over again, but w/out Cam Newton. Hopefully they make the same mistake again and all the QBs go quickly, it'll help push better talent down to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Wondering if they'd take less than chart value, didn't someone do that last year? Meh, either way, I don't see us moving up. Especially if we sign Desean Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if he thinks he can fly or raw-dog it in subsaharan africa without catching the HIV, I don't like his football ability, regardless of how much swag and confidence he has. That confidence isn't going to complete 60% of his passes for him. We have differing views on Manziel, we'll just have to wait and see what happens. I for one hope he's nowhere near us when the 18th pick rolls around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Fwiw, Jaws has Mettenberger as his #2 QB, behind Bortles. He has the size, arm and Cam Cameron thing going for him, which is a lot to like. However, even as one of his biggest supporters I'm not touching him in the first round, there's just too much talent in this draft to reach on a QB. I'd love to grab him in the fourth, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him go in the third. If he didn't tear his ACL and was allowed to be participate in the all-star games and all of the off-season events, I think he could have gone in the second.

BroadwayJets Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I wouldn't mind us trading up for an early 2nd round and building up our secondary for some of the higher secondary prospects.
