Texans mocked to trade with Seattle Seahawks, but it doesn’t make sense

Alas, Texans followers, the mock draft season is reaching it’s last hours as soon as once more.

At this level, you’re in all probability bored with listening to about mock drafts (we’re all getting there). Nonetheless, with the Houston Texans on the point of decide with the third and thirteenth total picks within the first spherical, hypothesis has been made that extra groups are keen to commerce down than up.

In his newest mock draft, Peter King of NBC Sports activities has the Seattle Seahawks making that hypothesis true to a degree. Seattle calls Houston to maneuver again in an effort to assist Seattle achieve extra picks.

Seattle and Houston swap their first-round picks, and Houston sacrifices their third spherical decide (68th total) within the transfer. King has Houston choosing Ohio State’s Garrett Wilson on the ninth total decide, simply forward of the New York Jets’ second choice.

Peter King’s Houston Texans mock commerce is all kinds of unsuitable

This can be a foolish commerce mocked right here by King. Why would buying and selling as much as get a large receiver make any sense when one goes to fall to the Texans at 13 anyhow? Even at that time, there isn’t one large receiver who stands out above the remainder in my eyes.

In my view, the highest cross catchers on this draft, alongside Wilson, are too near separate. Wilson, Treylon Burks, Chris Olave, and whoever else you’d like to incorporate in that class are fairly comparable in ability and aren’t value buying and selling up for whenever you’re in Houston’s state of affairs.

Houston ought to nonetheless make a run at Deebo Samuel, however that’s a special subject, and I digress. Houston has Brandin Cooks, who nonetheless has loads of gas left within the tank, and no matter large receiver falls to them at thirteenth total goes to achieve success.

This isn’t the suitable transfer, however the mock draft lastly season ends Thursday Night time.
