There is nothing wrong with a 4.68 "40" time. Especially for a QB! I am not convinced that the Texans are going to take a QB with the #1 pick in the Draft but should they decide to do so, they will have to take a very close look at Johnny Football's playmaking ability. By the same token, Vince Young and Michael Vick both brought that aspect to the table when they first became available. IMHO, neither proved himself to be worthy of the first pick in the NFL Draft.
As I have said several times previously, by its very nature the NFL Draft is an inexact science. Especially if you are taking a QB. And even more especially, if that QB likes to take off and run! By its very nature, running QB's have a HUGE target on their back!
I still believe that if the Texans choose a QB with the first pick, they will go with Bridgewater. With that said, I also believe that Johnny Football has narrowed the gap considerably since the college season ended.
I also believe that if Cleveland offers their two (current) 1st round picks to move up to the first pick in the draft, the Texans would have to strongly consider the offer.
In order to justify rejecting the offer, the Texans Staff would have to be absolutely convinced that one of the 3 top QB's (Bridgewater, Johnny Football or Bortles) was a can't miss prospect. Thus far, I don't believe that is the case. If the Texans and Browns were to agree to the trade, we would have 4 of the top 65 (including 3 of the top 33) picks in the Draft. As an added bonus, our first pick would be the #4 selection in the entire draft. The Texans can fill a lot of gaping holes (QB, DE/OLB, OL, and DB) with quality prospects, using those kind of high draft choices.
