The Texans were not able to trade out of #1 last night. Will they be able to tonight?

It is going to be interesting to see what happens early in the 2nd round tonight.  The Texans were probably hoping and praying that Teddy Bridgewater would fall to them.  I, on the other hand, was hoping and praying that he would not.  Eat it, Texans.

Now they are in an interesting spot.  They need a quarterback, but they are not taking Derek Carr.  They have to be hoping that there is a team that really likes Carr and is willing to move up to the spot.  They can then move back and pick up a guy like Zach Mettenberger later in the 2nd.  Trevor and Greenlaw will probably jump ship.

Here is to hoping they can't trade the pick and take a player that ends up being bad!
