Z-Report Says: Raji and Curry are unlikely to fall to the Texans and I don't see them in a hurry to trade up either. I honestly believe that Matthews is a guy they would have no problems drafting and plugging into the strong-side LB spot. Malcolm Jenkins might be the safest pick in the first round even if he has a pedestrian 40-time. What the Texans might like about Jenkins is that they could play him at CB right away and then transition him to FS in a couple of years. I believe that the Texans will look to trade back first and foremost and if that happens, Darius Butler and Peria Jerry could be in the picture late in the first. People in the know tell me that DeMeco Ryans "can't run" and that he would be a liability in coverage as anything other than a MLB, but if the Texans feel otherwise, Maualuga could be in play if they trade back.
