I think it's just possible that the Texans are pretty indifferent about the guys between 16 - 40 or something. I know that there are people who view the draft similarly. I know Ben Solak has mentioned on the ringer draft pod that he's pretty checked out on the draft after the mid teens and then they are all the same for quite a bit. 

If someone falls that they really like, they can make a push to go get them at a lower cost than they moved down for, otherwise they can sit tight, likely take a guy that they had in the same bucket as a guy they could have gotten with their original pick, and have the Vikings second next year. 

Exactly what i said when i heard all the Texan hate. 20 to 40 are very similar players in MOST drafts. Some are deeper than others, but there was always Day 2 BBs loaded with players we expected to go R1

@CWood21 Is it possible the Vikings could realistically trade to #5?

I still think it's roughly the same value.  Depending on what TVC you use.

Chargers Receive:
#11 (1250 points)
#23 (760 points)
#157 (28.6 points)
Total: 2038.6 points

Vikings Receive:
#5 (1700 points)
#110 (74 points)
Total: 1774 points

Using the same 15% premium, that is a relative fair comparison to the Sam Darnold trade based on prevent day value, but it doesn't account for that future SRP the Jets traded that the Vikings currently can't.  I'd argue that a '25 FRP >>> '19 SRP by a pretty hefty margin, so there'd need to have the '25 FRP included and the Vikings maybe get a future pick in 2025 to offset the difference?  Maybe like the Chargers '25 3rd/4th going to Minnesota in return.

Chargers Receive:
#11 (358 points)
#23 (253 points)
#108 (30 points)
#129 (18 points)
Total: 659 points

Vikings Receive:
#5 (468 points)
Total: 468 points

Assuming that same 41% premium from that Sam Darnold trade, you're probably looking at this as the framework for present day value.  Again, it's still missing that future SRP that the Jets traded so some sort of '25 FRP/'25 4th swap or something like that is probably needed.  And I'm not sure the Vikings are inclined to trade all of their picks this year for a QB.  Imagine you're draft walking away with your QB and then nothing until the 5th round.  That's pretty barren.

F-S TVC

Patriots Receive:
#11 (1785 points)
#23 (1411 points)
#108 (627 points)
Total: 3823 points

Vikings Receive:
#5 (2184 points)
Total: 2184 points

Again, using that same 76% premium that's in the ballpark of the present day value that's going to be needed, but again falling short without that future SRP to trade.

Also the colts didnt need a QB as they had Luck.  NE does.  That would likely add a premium need to get them to move back

Possibly.  But we're also assuming that the Patriots are indeed wanting one of the top QBs.  I know I had them as a dark horse contender for Justin Fields, but I could easily see where they trade down with someone like the NY Giants for their pick this year plus future pick(s) and then take someone like Michael Penix in the late FRP, early SRP range.

I could see that. Maybe they just don't love Maye/Daniels. Brissett can and will win them some games.. he isn't a "franchise qb" but more than capable of leading the team or being that bridge to a Penix type.

I think they will take Maye, but it might be more prudent to make that trade to pick up a future 1st+.

I could easily see them believing they're better off with Nabers, Penix, plus a future FRP from New York rather than Maye and someone like Ladd McConkey.  It's really not a stretch because we're assuming that the Patriots like all of the top QBs, and they probably won't like them all.

NE needs a QB.  Whether NE wants one of the QB they could take at 3 is an unknown.  NE certainly could posture as if they do and try to extract more from Minnesota in a trade.

You don't think New England, of all teams, is drooling at the mouth for Ladd McConkey? Heck, he's probably WR1 on their board.

I feel like you have to assume that things have changed regarding how New England drafts now.  Belichick was highly specific on roles he wanted guys to play, which resulted in some truly Strange overdrafting because the other guy who could fill that role was gone.  Elliot Wolf runs the draft room now and he's probably a lot more like his dad and more like conventional Green Bay, in that he'd rather draft "an OL" than "a LG".

Another thing the Vikings could possibly do is bypass the Patriots and move up to #2.  I'm not sure what each pick is worth, but it seems like the teams don't always stick to a particular trade value chart anyway.  If the Commies aren't all that excited about any of the top four QB's in the draft after Williams, a package of 3 first round picks combined with Penix or Nix might look pretty good to them.

If nothing else, having them as another possible option (even if they had to add a little more) could keep the Patriots from thinking they could absolutely fleece the Vikings for their only opportunity to get a QB.

They traded Sam Howell. They are locked into 2 and taking a QB.

What if they don't like any of the top guys?  Maybe they would be better off taking those picks and grabbing Penix or Nix later.  Just a thought.  They may very well end up doing what you said and just take a guy at 2.  I'm just throwing out some possibilities.

Then they wouldn’t have traded Howell. Too big of a risk to trade down and hope to grab another QB.
