Dumb move
Hate this!
The last time I was this pissed about letting a running back go, we replaced him with David Montgomery.
Great Trade for Texans. Could be Joe-Mixon lite for them next year.
Was hoping we would send him back home to Cincy in a package for Trey
I guess that’s a bit better.
Wasn’t Juice Scruggs the worst OL in football last year or something like that?
Same…
There goes the road jersey I bought at the beginning of last season. I loved Montgomery. Yes, it is a replaceable position and this allows us to get younger and cheaper long term, but yeah, this sucks.
The Texans have the worst OL in football
Scruggs fromer 2nd round pick, Center out of Penn State.
…. Wait is he saying we get their 4th rounder + Juice Scruggs… and that is a 5th round value because Scruggs is so bad?
I’m not exactly sure what he meant by that.
Leos going to run Gibbs into the ground! That OL won’t be fixed next season.
We’ll miss Montgomery but I’m surprised we got this much. A 4th round, 7th round and a former second round pick? If Scruggs turns it around and we hit on the 4th round pick then this is a great deal.
There are also some good backup running backs in free agency.
I think he’s saying a 4th and a 7th equals a 5th?
I’m not sweating it, we weren’t gonna take carries away from Gibbs, as I said in another thread, we can get Monty production for way less than 8m
Alright I guess.
I loves me some Knuckles, so this bums me out. The comp seems not terrible.
Hopefully, Vaki is ready-to-go.
Yeah that’s a very weird thing to say.
The deal is a 4th, 7th, and Scrubbs. Not sure how that is a 5th round value unless its a future 4th.
Either way this is a pretty good deal for a 29 year old power rb.
Is it a 4th and Scruggs for Monty and a 7th?
that makes it closer to 5th round
or we are giving them the 7th back…for their 4th and Scruggs

Why would the Texans trade a “block of granite” for a 29 year old running back?
Also, why was the Texans OL so bad with Laremy Tunsil, Tytus Howard (who just got paid by Cleveland), and Scruggs in 2024?
The wording makes it seems like they get Monty, we get a 4th, 7th and Scruggs.
They’re desperate at RB, so it makes sense.
