    "According to a report from Dan Pompei of Bleacher Report, the Houston Texans are “trying hard” to trade the No. 1 overall pick and the Buffalo Bills could be a potential trade partner."


    Interesting, who do they want?

    If the Bills really are going for it I suppose it could be Clowney but there's just as much chance that it's Sammy Watkins, IMO.

    You're right about McClain. He is pretty dialed in when it comes to the Texans. When was the last time a team picking 9th ever traded up to #1? It would be damned expensive I'd guess. The Texans need one of the top 3 QBs. They cannot go that far down and still be sure of getting one.

    How are they unsettled at QB? They just took one in the 1st round last year and contrary to popular belief he didn't have a bad rookie year.

    Listen people may disagree with who they grabbed at QB but you have to let them play out their conviction. I disagree with the Bengals continuing on with Andy Dalton, but I'm not going to criticize every pick they make on the basis of how could you take that position when you're still so unsettled at QB. They believe in Dalton and they'll either come out right or wrong.

    Sammy Watkins is one hell of a football player and would look great catching passes for them. He would look great opposite Stevie Johnson, with Marquise Goodwin and Robert Woods fighting for the #3 role.

    Rumors are rampant this time of year, but if true Id have to think Clowney. They could trade to 2 or 3 to get someone else.

    I have a tough time seeing Clowney because they have a lot of defensive line and pass rush talent already. Jerry Hughes was a revelation and they have Mario Williams opposite him. They also have Manny Lawson to rotate. They have Marcell Dareus and Kyle Williams up front, and Alan Branch looked great.

    Given past history I could see them being all about grabbing Greg Robinson and moving Cordy Glenn to right tackle.

    I don't see why anyone would move up when you can take Aaron Donald in the top 10..he's a blue chip draft pick...unless of course it's Johnny.

    lol @ "EJ fricken sucks". The guy had similar stats as Tannehill did in his rookie season, in six games less played due to injury. Yeah he sucks alright, maybe we should cut Tannehill and draft Manziel then. As a matter of fact he was on his way to having more TD's passes than Tannehill, he was only 1 TD short of Tannehill's rookie season and he played six less games.

    I would go Bortles, but then again that decision is 100% biased... Go Knights!

    If Bortles or Manziel drop to 19 (which I highly doubt), I would take them with our first pick. I bet Manziel could connect with Wallace.

    Your crazy dude. EJ isn't the next Manning but he's better or at the least as good as those QB's coming out this year.

    If the Bills want an offensive player it would be either Robinson or Watkins ... most likely the WR. I say this because they need a playmaker at receiver and the Rams are rumored to be interested in Watkins so Buffalo would have to trade ahead of the Rams to get him. If they want defense then IMO they go Mack to solidify the middle of their defense.

    I don't know if the Bills want to give up the draft picks which would be required to move from nine to one. They would probably be better off staying at nine, since they will be able to get a quality starter with the ninth overall pick.

    If the Bills can get decent QB play in 2014, they are probably the team which will be the biggest threat to the Patriots in the division. They have better overall talent on their roster than the Jets or Dolphins at this time and if Emanual can improve in his second year in the NFL, the Bills will be a legitimate playoff contender this coming season.

    You made me look it up, yea stats were quite similar.His TD percentage was higher, INT percentage and accuracy about the same, as well as yards per game. If he wore aqua we'd be saying he's the next Big Mac!

    It'd be like trading up to third for an athletic edge guy and then making him a part-time player.

    He's horrible.

    And why are you acting like getting injured and missing 6 games is a good thing? The Bills o-line and running game were much better than Miami's and he still missed 6 games. What we've witnessed of E.J. is most likely close to his ceiling. Thad Lewis came in, over those 6 games, and put up better numbers than Manuel.

    With this type of thinking the Dolphins were on their way to winning the Super Bowl last year until they lost 8 games.

    Agree 100%.

    I'd also move up for WR Evans, or move down even for TE Amaro...unless of course Keller signs again.

    Then let's cut Tannehill too because their play and stats were similar. Such horrible rookies. Matt Moore had better numbers than Tannehill the year before that, why didn't we play him over Tannehill. Let's not forget neither of these horrible players actually made the playoffs their ROOKIE seasons, unlike Wilson, Luck, RGIII.

    You guys are so inconsistent with your arguments, literally makes no sense at all.

    It may not make sense to you because I don't think you read my post. Nothing about it is inconsistent.

    Luck's numbers are very close to Tanny's numbers. Wilson barely averages 200yds passing per game. Teams make the playoffs not individual players.

    You still don't make any sense. EJ Manuel's numbers were on par with Tannehill's rookie season. As a matter of fact he had a better INT ratio and a better TD ratio than Tannehill. How does that make him horrible? Explain and try to sound logical instead of basing your analysis just because he was drafted by Buffalo.

    I think he is worth it. I love his attitude; the ball is in the air, it belongs to him. And he has the size to get it. He is special.

    I'd be all for that. Except I'd trade Tannehill not cut him. Jags or Browns or somebody would give us something for him.
