    Rumor from Sirius Satelite Radio...
    They got it from one of their "sources around the league" whatever that means..

    Abraham and our fourth round pick would go to the Texans for the #1 overall pick

    I have heard it before in different ways.. but this was only a little while ago and they said that talks had rekindled and there was a good chance a deal would get done

    I need some real proof of that. Plus, I don't think the pot is sweet enough for the Texans.

    For What....Who can Jets' pick with #1 overall pick ?
    John Elway isn't in this draft. There is nobody worth trading up for...IMO

    Jets' will be better server by having 2 picks in 1st round.

    You do not think #4 + Abraham is good enough for the Texans?

    On the point value scale, that gives Abraham #12 pick in the draft value. I bet at #12, you can't beat Abraham in talent.

    the texans would be complete morons for accepting this trade. nothing against abe, but the texans are trading the top pick in the draft for abe (who we have been struggling to get a middle round pick for) and a fourth rounder (practically a backup/depth player)

    1st overall pick (bush/leinart) > abe and a backup player

    Fair enough. Tomorrow is another day and maybe this might splash. You never know. Abe and a 4th does not seem right. Wait a minute; do you mean Abe and our #4 pick. That is more like it. One never knows.........

    so its the fourth overall????

    according to the original post it wa sa fourth round pick.....

    if it is the fourth overall i wouldnt do it, id much rather trade him for a mid first round pick and grab two players with the 4 and 15 or so

    Whoa, yeah, I just realized it said fourth rounder not number four overall. There's no way that's happening.

    Finally figured out what he meant - Abe + #4 pick for the top pick overall. I would not cry over it. If we move to #1, we better go with Bush then.

    Totally misread that.

    Abraham + 4th rounder for #1 overall = Steal of the century for NYJ.

    I think you mean Abraham and our fourth pick OVERALL. No way would Houston give up the #1 for Abraham and a fourth rounder, that is impossible.
