Here are some big names, exciting options for an aggressive Texans trade deadline
BUYERS NOT SELLERS!
24 October 2023
The Houston Texans will be back in action this week against the Carolina Panthers and if all goes well, the team will be sitting at 4-3 with the trade deadline looming on Tuesday, Oct. 31.
It's been a long time since the Texans could be considered buyers at the deadline, but they have a real shot at catching the Jaguars in the division if they can continue on this path.
CBS Sports recently published an article projecting trade scenarios for several teams, and they proposed the Texans trade a 3rd-round pick for Broncos receiver Courtland Sutton.
With Nico Collins, Tank Dell, and Robert Woods already in the fold for this year and next, that doesn't make a ton of sense to us. But there are numerous others players on expiring deals that could be a good fit.
Especially when it comes to pass rushers, as the Texans are currently dead last in sacks this season.
So if the Texans could work out a long-term deal for one of these edge rushers, should they pull the trigger?
Commanders Chase Young & Montez Sweat, Panthers Brian Burns, and Vikings Danielle Hunter are all listed as players that could be on the move.
So who should the Texans target out of this exciting group of players?
Don't miss the video above as we examine all the possibilities for the Texans before the deadline.

How Astros could still be in on Bregman, definitely out on another
Jan 20, 2025, 6:05 pm
As we begin another week of free agency, Alex Bregman remains unsigned, but one of the Astros reported targets Anthony Santander has a new home.
Santander has reportedly agreed to a 5-year, $92.5 million contract with the Blue Jays. Many were hoping that the Astros would make a play for the switch hitting power hitter, as he would have provided some serious thump.
Now it appears the Astros will enter the 2025 season with one of the weakness outfields in baseball when it comes to offense.
Speaking of Bregman, Astros manager Joe Espada recently told Fox 26's Nate Griffin that the team is still in contact with Breggy despite General Manger Dana Brown telling the media the team decided to pivot after talks stalled with Bregman's camp.
If there still remains a possibility of Bregman returning, one has to wonder if the Astros reported 6-year, $156 million contract offer is still on the table after the club traded for Isaac Paredes to fill the hole at third base. And if they do make a deal with Bregman, what do they do with Paredes?
Also, now that we know how much money Santander commanded on the open market. Which signing would have benefited the Astros the most? Santander at 5-years, $92.5 million, or Bregman at 6-years, $156 million?
Don't miss the video above as we discuss the possibility of Bregman returning, the Dodgers' absurd free agency (that now involves even more deferred money), Billy Wagner, and much more!
