TLDR: Texans don't want Teddy (who can blame them) and number 8 is too low to get one of the big 3 (Trevor, Fields, Wilson) so the Texans would be stuck with one of the 2nd tier QBs like Big Mac Jones and Trey Lance.

 

If only we had a higher draft pick damn!!!

How is it that every single mock is pegging us to take a QB at 8, but somehow a QB won’t be available for Houston at 8? Doesn’t make any sense.

There is just so much unknown about this situation.

like to go from “not entertaining trades and leaving voicemails” to “well we don’t want THAT pick we want top 5” is just so meh.

I’m being biased here but I fully think they don’t want to trade with Miami because come say 2026 afc playoffs...how would it feel to have to beat a Watson led Miami or NY team for the Texans to advance...pretty fuging shitty if you ask me.

I guess it would be very Texans of them to slash half their roster and draft a young QB with their first pick. History repeats itself? Poor Zach Wilson. 

You think they trade with Miami or NYJ to get to 2/3 for Wilson or he falls to 8 🙂

I mean everyone has said McClain has been in the know this whole time. Now he has went from there absolutely won’t be no trade, to maybe this team could trade for him. Then he was like I should have never said there wouldn’t be no trade, sounds like he really don’t know to me.

Hmmmmm, interesting news!

Incredibly respected? Really?

Among other journalists? Yeah. Aaron Wilson too. Pretty sure both of them are Hall of Fame voters among other things.

It's kinda hard to take fan opinion of journalists seriously seeing as they tend to base their credibility on whether or not they're saying what fans want to hear.

Gil Brandt is one of the most respected names in scouting, and when he advocated for the Panthers to draft Cam Newton he was revered here. Then years later when he said Newton was declining people talked like he was old and senile.

      Podcast will the Panthers give Young 2027 option plus DC approach with Yoing

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I mentioned this in another thread but i'll restate it here. Keeping a wait and watch approach and passing on the 5th year option kinda makes sense like obliquely, but in practice neither the team or the player wants it. The player doesn't want to risk injury when he could have at least another year locked up, and the team doesn't want to risk the player blowing up in their fourth year and holding the team over the barrel. If you're the QB and you're playing that well you obviously test the free agent market, and you'd probably be bitter about it as well.  modern first round qb contracts are essentially 3 year deals with the option of an additional 2 to put downward pressure on contract extensions. You either pick up the 5th year, extend with a new contract, or move on.  just sitting tight on the fourth year isn't a practical choice for any of the parties.

      The point was Miles Sanders wasn't just a guy in Philly. He was at least as good as Chuba has been in Carolina.

      I have not been impressed with our pass blocking since at least 2022. Still remember watching Darnold live against the Seahawks when we were dominating them in the run game and we still allowed far too much pressure on him regardless. It has not gotten much better since. In fairness to this year's unit, they have been hit by injuries. Oftentimes, even a mediocre overall unit is better than a stacked one if the former stays healthy throughout the entire season. Constant shuffling only means a much greater likelihood someone will blow their assignment and that's all it takes for a sack or worse.
