Texans strike first on draft day trades by working deal with Browns
Nick Caserio is already wheeling and dealing.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Houston Texans and Cleveland Browns have made a trade involving Day 3 picks leading into the first round of Thursday's draft. Houston will trade its 2025 fifth-round pick (166th overall) and a 2027 fifth-rounder to Cleveland in exchange for two 2025 sixth-rounders (179th and 216th overall) and a 2025 seventh-rounder (255th overall).
This isn't the first time the Texans have made a trade with the Browns. Caserio might best be known for his swindling of the deal with Pro Bowl quarterback Deshaun Watson for three first-round picks, including the one to land defensive end Will Anderson Jr. in 2023.
The Texans now own nine picks in this year's draft compared to the previous seven. Knowing Caserio, those picks will likely last for less than half of Thursday or Friday night.

Former Browns WR Elijah Moore drawing rave reviews from new Bills teammates
Former Browns WR Elijah Moore drawing rave reviews from new Bills teammates Wide receiver Elijah Moore departed the Cleveland Browns for the Buffalo Bills late into NFL free agency, but he is already seeing praise heaped upon him by his new teammates. The particular Bills teammate? Pro Bowl and former first round cornerback Tre'Davious White. Unprompted, White had this to say on the now-former Browns and New York Jets wideout looking for a fresh start on his third team: 'He's gonna be a big-time player for us. Route running is amazing, getting in and out, his breaks is amazing.' Moore finished his two-year stint with the Browns with just 1,178 yards receiving and three touchdowns, catching the football from a wide multitude of quarterbacks in that span under some lackluster offenses. Both seasons, however, were career-highs for Moore after coming over from the Jets in a trade before the 2023 NFL draft. Now playing with the first stable quarterback of his entire career, is Moore destined for a breakout season in Buffalo? Besides, Moore did flash in the brown and orange with quarterback Joe Flacco providing the most consistent quarterback play he has seen in his NFL career. It would certainly be a tough pill to swallow in Cleveland if he produces at a high level while catching passes from reigning MVP Josh Allen.
