Pace visiting the Texans

OP is in Houston visiting with reps from the Texans looking to make a trade. What if...........OP for Dunta Robinson and a 1st round pick???? Would that be awesome or what. We could get Alex Barron if he fell to #13 or get a DE at that spot. Then at #19 we could get Jammal Brown or Kalif Barnes or a FS, or DE or another oline player. I would do this trade if I were in the Rams office but thats me but I am probably dreaming!!!

From the lack of info coming from the two camps, I figured something like this was coming.

With the black out date for signing franchise players coming up fast, there isn't a whole lot of time.

At this late date, the best the Rams can probably hope for is getting the Texan's first round pick and maybe switching places in the second round.

We have the #19 pick in the first this year!

yea lol

theres no way houston is walking out of this with just a strait up 1st round pick and a pick at 13 wow. thats embaressing.

the rams would shop pace around more before that. i know cleveland needs o lien help and they hold the numbe 3 so as far as picks go theres the one the rams want.

Put dunta into the equastion and u might get ur man

The problem is the Rams have less than 48 hours to make something happen.

That's not a lot of time to make a deal with one team much less shopping him around. And the Texans know it.

I predict Houston will put their first rounder on the table along with a lower pick (no higher than a third).

Pace is worth more, but this late in the game its the best the Rams can get.

Well it's all but finalized from what i've heard, i just sow fsw report and they reported that the deal is all but done, the texans and pace have agreed to a contract in principle to paraphrase the interview that pace gave to fox kriv (the fox affliate here in houston) "i'd like to be somewhere where i'm wanted, where financially i'm set for the future, move on with the situation in st.louis and go to a organization thats moving in the right direction, right now i'm just going through the process, but if we can make it work that would be great..." fox sports south west have said that the deal is all but done, look for the texans to give up the 13th pick in the draft and also there 2 3round picks, the deal on what i sow said "should be done by early wednesday".... so it should be interesting if this deal actually falls through or a team comes out of the woodworks and offers a better offer than what the texans have offered

to correct what you were saying later we have him franchised. The deal is its his right to look around to find a deal but some1 would ahve to pay potentiall about 12 million a year for him because you have to outbid what we would be able to pay for him. i was reading up you guys have 4 million in cap and are cutting 2 players but i doubt they are worth 8 million between them.

I do hope the rams do this deal beacuse it would be huge for our draft.

assuming this deal goes through and the Rams get the Texans 1st rounder, #13 and 2 3rd rounders, we will prob try to get Alex Barron with #13...My question is would we try to get Jammal Brown or Kalif Barnes at #19? I can see it happening! Then we have 4 3rd round picks..yes 4. SO we will move up in the 2nd and maybe try to get G David Baas, CB Marlin Jackson, CB Corey Webster or S Josh Bullocks with our 2nd and a 3rd and then take 3 3rd round picks and maybe get C Chris Spencer, C Ben Wilkerson, OT Michael Munoz, or MLB Kirk Morrison, ...this draft is looking up!!! A good rebuilding year fo the Rams, a great time to rebuild the line! and the D!
