I think they’ll trade it for more ammo. Makes sense if they’re sticking with Fields and they could get a haul for that #1 pick.

They’d be crazy not to trade, even if they just swapped #1 for #2 plus a pick.

The Texans seemed ticked off enough about missing on the getting the top pick that maybe the Bears could squeeze out a little extra juice in a trade.

One cannot help but think Lovie Smith did the Texans owner wrong purposely to help his old team with that 2 PT conversion.

Texans ownership appear to be total morons and the downward spiral just continues.

Probably clumsily ("it was a joke NFL just like Ross did in Miami") offered him cash for a loss. He either put two and two together and realized that he was fired anyway and went rogue. Or he was like FFS Flores just sued the Dolphins and NFL about this same thing! I'm going to wreck their plans and if they say anything at all I'm going to start my own lawsuit and maybe I'll do it even if they don't out of pure spite.

I thought he did it to spite them after finding out about the reports that he would be fired. Either way, serves them right

mad respect to Lovie for going to 2 there. Didn't think they would actually try to get it...

If they're smart, they'll go Jalen Carter or Will Anderson. They need DL/Edge.

Ryan Poles: I’d Have To Be “Absolutely Blown Away” To Take A QB At No. 1 :

" Quarterbacks are always in the discussion for the top pick, but the Bears have Justin Fields heading into his third season. That made the team’s commitment to Fields one of the topics of conversation. "

PFT’s 2022 defensive rookie of the year: Sauce Gardner :

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...sauce-gardner/

" By the end of the year, Gardner had been selected for the Pro Bowl and he’s a strong contender for All-Pro status as he quickly rose to the top of the ranks of cornerbacks with all levels of experience. He finished the year with a league-high 20 passes defensed and also recorded 75 tackles and two interceptions as the Jets went from the bottom of the league’s defenses to being one of the toughest units in the league with Gardner’s work in pass coverage helping the pass rush find success.
