Texans to take Clowney?

  • While it could be scary as hell, and opposite JJ I would have zero motivational concerns for Clowney (JJ would kick his ass if he loafed), I can't see the Texans passing on a QB... and I think the one they want is Manziel.

    So the trick for them is how do they trade down and still get their guy?

  • They should, he's the best player in the draft

    I could see them taking Clowney if they felt that Schaub could bounce back. Before his melt down this year he was a decent QB.

    Or, perhaps, they are enamored enough with Case Keesum to give him the starting job.......and that their evaluation of this year's QB crop is subdued.

    Is it possible that they may think that Bridgewater/Manziel/Bortles etc. would not be an upgrade over either Keesum or Schaub?

  • Maybe they could see Carr as an option and try to trade up in to the first to take him.

  • Johnny Manziel No. 1 overall? That's what @MelKiperESPN says in his 1st Mock Draft of 2014: http://es.pn/1aGkC6V pic.twitter.com/trEQILDbdz

    I bet hell will freeze over before they take another Carr.

    The Rams will probably try and trade down a few picks too so someone else could grab a QB if they think Jake Matthews will still drop to them.

  • Well if Kiper says Manziel is going No. 1, that pretty much seals it that he will fall to us at 4.

    Maybe it's Kiper's year... I mean... I agree with him (sort of) so he has that going for him... 🙂

    That's be Case Keenum and no, they are not that enamored by him... or Schaub... or TJ Yates...

    I think they really want Manziel, but (as I said above) not at #1.

    He promised to quit if he was wrong about Jimmy Claussen. Damn liar.

  • Texans run the 3-4 right? WOuld be interesting to know where they feel Clowney would fit best. As the other 3-4 DE opposite Watt or as the Hybrid? I'd put him in the Hybrid cause he's athletic enough and we all know he can up and put his hand in the dirt.
