Trade Down With Philly?

[TexanJedi]

I think of all the teams that might like to move up Philly is the best bet. We need Detroit to take Stafford or Sanchez at 1, then the other tackles not named Oher to be gone by 15. The Eagles worried that San Diego or Detroit might take a tackle phone the Texans and trade picks - hopefully Jenkins is still on the board and New Orleans decides they can't pass. Ideally, Matthews is still on the board at 21, the Texans get their man and an extra 3rd rounder like last year. Getting 6 players in the first 4 rounds could give the Texans nice depth.

Regarding which LB the Texans might target, I think we need to ask who the Texans have more faith in, Diles or Adibi? Diles was all over the field last year, until his unfortunate injury. He should be fine and we have depth with Bentley. Adibi was really active when he saw the field, but between his weight concerns (hopefully no longer a problem) and the fact that we have no depth after releasing Greenwood, I would say a Will LB is more likely. The Texans also looked at Burnett in free agency and I think given his size Will would have been his position here in Houston. Matthews seems to be a better fit at Will than Cushing. By taking the versatile Matthews I'm sure the Texans can create some packages to get him and Adibi on the field at the same time during certain situations.
