Texans open to trading #1 pick

[Soul Rebel]

I am torn between Bridgewater and Bortles as the top QB in this draft.  I still believe (probably in the minority) that Johnny Football is a great collegiate QB, but his personality and temperment is too fragile for the NFL.  Plus, QBs with Brees' stature are few and far between.  That being said, Houston would be silly not to explore sliding down.  Ending up with any of the big-3 QBs while adding assetts is how a team in their state needs to be.

I'm not sure they're really "open to trading the # 1 pick", or they were just fleetingly responding to a question. Remember, the key word is "open". 

 

Some GM's (no matter who's their personnel) believe you should always keep your options open. 

 

Looking at their situation, I think they'll take Bridgewater (unless they feel they can't miss on Manziel, cause he's from Texas).

Any team that passes up Bridgewater will rue the day that they did.

I like Johnny but Bridgewater has him beat like a drum in pro potential and capability

Idk I think Johnny has potential to be the Mike Vick that never was or a Russel Wilson type of guy maybe an RG3 of last year but only time will tell.

So... Watkins?

Sarcasm on. But dam I wish there was a way.

What makes you think it's impossible?

Star landed right in our laps, did you ever see that coming?

[carolina-chuck]

Lets trade up for Clowney.

Brees, Ryan, and Glennon would all cry.

Was jokingly implying trading with Houston.

then we could save $ on hardy thats needed to resign cam and luke

[Jackofalltrades]

I hope Atl moves up and drafts Clowney.

[Mr. Scot]

It won't be to us.

 

Can't see Gettleman giving up the kinda value it would take to move up that far.

It's only smokescreen by management. That's just the right thing to say in situation like this. The Texans will not pass on Bridgewater.

The Texans are one QB away from reclaiming their division. They wouldn't risk that taking Manziel just because he's from Texas. Owners and management don't care about state of origin. Just more money, playoffs money.

[Evengelion]

I wouldn't mind seeing Manziel as the 1st overall pick. It's long past due for another Tbow fiasco. That would make for one entertaining 2014. "All he does is win"

I'd laugh.

 

I'll likely laugh at whomever picks him anyway.
