McNair: Texans Open To Trading Down

[Roy P]

Since this thread was about trading down....I have a 'what if' hypothetical:

We trade #1 to Cleveland for 4, 35, 71, & 102. The Browns select a Clowney. Then we trade #4 & #102 for #8 & #40 so the Vikings can select a QB. Then we trade #8 & #193 for #12 & #74. Then in my Mock draft we still select CB Justin Gilbert to essentially replace JoJo at the end of his contract and to start right away.

12 Justin Gilbert CB

33 Deone Bucannon S - Makes Keo expendable
35 Marcus Smith OLB - Mercilus and Reed have not developed
40 Kareem Martin DE - Antonio FA soon
46 Xavier Su'a-Filo or Joel Bitonio RT - The need for RT evident

65 Martavis Bryant WR - AJ getting older, like having 2 big WRs
71 Jimmy Garoppolo QB - A better pocket passer than Manziel
74 Bishop Sankey RB - Tate gone to FA

97 Avery Williamson ILB - He can cover RB/TE

129 Zack Kerr NT - Earl Mitchell not a Romeo NT.

161 Jerick McKinnon RB/KR - Depth & Special Teams

My 'perfect' scenario
