That was a move I wish we had made at some point, but oh well.   Putting him together with the rookie from Kentucky will help them tighten some things up.

Ehh I like who we have and you have to be able to tackle to make this Colts team. Conley has been awful at tackling guys and I'm sure that's one big reason Gruden shipped him off. 

 

Also, should the Texans even show up to the draft next year? Do they even have any picks left?

No GM there and O'Brien is coaching for his job.   His secondary is a mess and he's desperate.

I think he's got tons of talent.  If we had a sensible way to obtain him I think we could have made better use of his skill set on our team.

The report says Conley has a 130 something passer rating against him this year. Not sure if that will help them out. Texans have only two picks in the top three rounds total for next two years. O’Brien is going all in on this year. If it doesn’t work out then it will be the next coaches problem.

I was wondering the same thing, they’ve sold the farm to bet on a race horse with 3 legs

O'Brien is in his last year if the Texans don't make the playoffs.

I gotta agree. Those trades smell of desperation...and unwashed jocks.
