Lets hope nobody pulls the trigger on this. The Texans are just a QB away from being back to SB form and having that pick for another beast defensive player will be devastating for us.

I doubt there is a team out there not willing to accept trade offers. Anything can be bought for the right price.
price is just too high for a #1 overall pick. you'd probably have to give up 2 or 3 firsts to get the #1 pick, unless you already have a really high pick.
I doubt anyone is trading up into the top 3 with what's happened to the redskins. They handcuffed themselves with that trade and their extremely lucky RG3 and Cousins worked out or it would have been a big bust.
Every team with the No. 1 pick says this every year. Might as well float it out there and see if someone offers you five 1sts to move up.
But the Texans are not going to end up trading back. They're taking a QB.

please be manziel.. please be manziel.
Honestly if I was an owner and I even got a whif that my HC or GM was about to trade multiple 1st round picks for 1 pick, they would be fired right there in the "war room".
How has RGIII and cousin's worked out for them exactly? Last I checked RG3 had 1 good year, then got his coach fired.
Sophomore slumps are to be expected, but Luck hasn't done too terrible...
Who knows, maybe RG3 needs a little longer to blossom, like Cam newton did...?
Think about it though, would someone like Peyton Manning be worth 3 or 4 #1s? I bet lots of teams back in '98 wish they had made that trade
how many PMs have come around since him though? There have been a lot more Tim Couches and David Carrs.
#1 overall QB picks since Manning:
Couch
Vick
Carr
Palmer
E Manning
A Smith
J Russell
Stafford
Bradford
Newton
Luck
None of these were worth even one 1st overall pick so far.
RG3 has had 1 great year and 1 good year, he's obviously worth what they gave up as franchise QB's aren't easy to find (see Tennessee Titans).
And they have Cousins in their back pocket who looks like a solid QB in the making
...I guess were being pretty loose with the term "worked out" today aren't we??
I would say he's had one good year and one not so good year.
16 TDs and 18 turnovers. zero rushing TDs. I'd say that's not a great year when you are pumped up to be the next big thing.
I wouldn't call 3-13 a good year by any stretch of the imagination ... and I wouldn't consider last year 'great' either.
If anything 2012 was a good year, and 2013 was an average year (at best)
2012 - 20 passing TDs and 5 ints ... pretty good
7 rushing TDs ... pretty good
12 fumbles ... WTF
3200 passing yards ... average
73.2 QBR ... pretty good
65% completion rate ... very good
8.1 yards per att ... below average
10-6 record ... pretty good
I would say that 2012 was a 'good' year for RG3 ... I wouldn't call it 'great' though
2013 - 16 passing TDs and 12 ints ... average
0 rushing TDs ... LOL
11 fumbles ... WTF
3200 passing yards ... average
40.1 QBR ... below average
60% completion rate ... average
7.5 yards per att ... below average
3-13 record (for RG3 and Cousins combined) ... LOL
How in the world could these 2 seasons (0 playoff wins, a coach getting fired and possibly needing to rebuild with a new coach) warrant 2 1st round picks? ... Maybe RG3 wins 5 superbowls for them in the future and we will look back and say it was worth it, but we sure has heck can't say that now
RG3 is awesome, not sure what ya'll are smoking. I'd give 23 Jake Locker's for 1 RG3
I'm not smoking anything ... but sounds like you are smoking whatever the ESPN hype machine will give you
I doubt it ... is there even a consensus #1 pick in this draft?
Clowney is lazy
Manziel doesn't fit the NFL mold and his red flags for off-field issues
Bridgewater never really played against great competition
who is worth giving up 2 1st rd picks for, especially when you are almost garunteed one of those 3 picks anyway. They would have to REALLLLY fall in love with someone at the workouts
