Clowney has very rare traits. Will this years 29, 62 or 93 or next years 32 have those traits? If they are in win it all mode, then an elite pass rusher helps towards that.
And bear in mind, I don't think it will happen, I'm just talking hypothetically. I think it's more likely there's a QB they like in this draft (or Glennon) and thay will be expending a pick there and this trade compensates for that.
Why would they make the deal prior to the trade? The Texans could have Bridgewater fall into their lap at #65 if they waited and not need to make any trade. The timing indicates that it has to be for something in this draft.I wonder if it might be a future pick. 2015 second rounder instead of 2014 3rd??
I know my man @tomecurran is working Mallett-to-Texans story. Can tell you sides have been talking on and off since at least March.
Wouldn’t get hopes up for landing more than a 3rd-5th for Mallett, and don’t think a trade would stop #Texans from drafting a QB early
@Coach42 I have 10 dislikes, you are responsible for 8 of them. What is you deal, if you do not agree select the disagree button it is the red X, but you have no reason to dislike anything I have written so knock it off.
No I'm just trying to understand his/her issue.kkkkkk, I'm laughing at your concern over this.
100 dislikes gives you 10 days suspended or something like that?
Let me play devil's advocate. If you are houston, why would you trade a future HOFer for a bunch of picks that might not pan out? There is no guarantee with mallet either.
How about Mallet + #29 for Texans #33 and #65..
Would work for me..
Just curious - why? He has 3 years under Brady and knows the Pat's system. He's more valuable to us now than when we drafted him. Your deal moves our top pick back to the 2nd round and basically gives us the same pick we used on Mallett 3 years ago. I don't see it....
Clowney is all hype, Mack is the player of the two I would want on my team any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
I think if they trade for Mallet its MORE likely they go QB. Mallett will be the stopgap.Not necessarily. Definitely means they wouldn't take a QB but they could also go for Mack or trade out (reports indicate they aren't trading though)
