Texans seeking three first-round picks in trade for No. 1

[Doomsday101]

NEW YORK -- The Houston Texans' asking price for the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft, for at least two inquiring clubs, is three first-round picks at a minimum, according to NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport.

With former South Carolina star Jadeveon Clowney the object of desire, Houston Texans general manager Rick Smith is seeking premium value for the pass rusher. Rapoport reports a swap of first-round picks Thursday night, plus two future first-rounders, is the demand.

The Texans aren't sold on Clowney as the No. 1 pick. "He doesn't appear to be a fit for their defense," Rapoport said Wednesday on Total Access, adding that effort issues aren't a concern for the team.

So who would buy?

Sounds like the Texans front office enjoyed the movie "Draft Day" a little too much, LOL!

The draft can not be here soon enough! I just read that Houston won't be trading and they are locked in on the guy they want.

Given the fact that no one in their right mind is giving up 3 #1's to get the overall 1st pick I expect Houston will select a player at 1 and if I had to take a guess it will be Khalil Mack. I then expect riots in the streets of Houston which is why I am staying inside the House tonight and locking the doors. lol

for 3 1's I would but then asking what is unreasonable only shows Houston has a player in mind.

They have lost their mind. As you stated, it would take a Luck type of player to he worth it.

well, if a "top" team did it like seattle, that would likely mean they get 3 low 1st rounders.

The Texans won't get what they want. They will draft Clowney. The trade possibilities begin with the 2nd pick and St. Louis.

I keep hearing Clowney does not fit the scheme and Mack is the guy they really like. I guess we will see what Texans really have in mind.

bingo...I'd give up a first this year and a first and 3rd next year for Clowney (wouldn't get him but that's what he's worth IMHO)
