There are a few teams ahead of us that could definitely be looking QB.

Carolina at 6, Falcons at 8, Broncos at 9, and with one of their two 1sts (5 and 7) you can't rule out the Giants either. We can't sit at 11 and expect to be able to take the first QB off the board. That's a huge gamble that likely won't end well.

This year is moving along even faster than normal.

FA starts a week from tomorrow. The draft isn't too far off now either.

Excited to see what the QB room looks like around May 1st.

Here's to them getting him.

I hope any team picking ahead of us lands Watson. Hell, I hope all 10 teams sign/trade for a QB by draft day.

Better for us to pick a rookie.

Carolina landing Watson would still require us to move up, but it makes it easier.

Right now we'd need to move to at least #4 (Jets) to get ahead of Carolina at #6. And we're not trading with the Giants #5.

With Carolina not needing a QB, we can potentially move up to #8 (Atlanta) to get ahead of Seattle at #9.

Even then, will Houston want to pick up a QB at #6 with Carolina's pick?

QBs are always overdrafted.

I think Mills has done enough to warrant a chance to be the franchise QB for Houston. But who knows. Especially w/ a new HC coming in.

My preference is to sit still at 11 and see what QBs are available. But I'm also not opposed to moving up if Rivera is 100% locked in on his guy.

I'm looking forward to this draft so much. I always do, but this year is especially interesting. If we play this offseason right, we are definitely competing for playoffs. And not at 7-9.

Lovie Smith is a placeholder HC and he was with the team last year, so he would likely roll with Mills. Also, Houston's GM is a Bruce Allen in the making, so hopefully he'll do something dumb as well.

Cheers to the 10 teams ahead of us being as dumb as possible.
