If you are a Texans fan, why wouldn't you consider trading down for a shot at Evans, McCarron and a couple of OL's?I would LOVE to see Manziel drafted by the Texans or the Cowboys so the ags get to deal with every time he screws up on and off the field and they can't live in their world of denial as they do with players like Von Miller getting suspended and Ryan Tannehill (who last I heard from the ags, was already getting measured for his Hall of Fame jacket).
Bob McNair will never put someone with the character issues like Manziel's as the face of his franchise. Not. Gonna. Happen. I said a year ago that the binge drinking pictures, the flashing of the cash at the casino and the rest of the "screw you, rules don't apply to be because I'm too big for rules" attitude of Manziel was going to turn off a number of NFL owners.
I would expect the Texans to trade down in the draft to get more picks and go for a proven quarterback on the free agent market. With the payroll the Texans have, I can't see them writing off the next two or three years on a development project and certainly not on an undersized one.
Manziel is too big a risk. Not because he might get hurt, but because of his brain. He is already a loose cannon and with first choice money, I think he will self destruct and probably take a couple of Texans players with him.
EDIT: This response was actually directed at the aggie.
