Awesome pickup
Wonder who they called to make the trade?
Conditional, may turn into a 3rd. I guess depending on his production or the like.For a 4th rd pick .
Jon Dorsey, obviously? Who cares? We got us a damn good running back that I never saw us trading for. Now, if only we could do the same and get Trent Williams that would be great!Awesome pickup

Don't you mean which individual in the GM committee handled the call and did the negotiating with the Browns on behalf of the Texans ?Awesome pickup, finally a RB that can catch the ball AND is good in pass pro.

100% was expecting him to be back if the jags ended up cutting him.Awesome! Never thought they would to be honest. I was expecting Blue to come through the doors of NRG.
Where did you get this from? Browns website still says "undisclosed"

I still want Houston to make a move for Duke Johnson. I know and have worked with Duke and he just needs an opportunity for more touches.
The other good thing is this shows the Texans are willing to make some moves. Hopefully the next one involves a call to Washington.
Adding Duke Johnson to the Texans is a test of scheme vs talent. Texans have thrown to RBs at low rate, but Duke's addition should pump that up.
2017-2018
Miller/Blue: 1,988 snaps, 116 targets (5.8% target rate)
Johnson: 1,026 snaps, 155 targets (15.1% target rate)

Unless something drastically changes in the #Texans O, Duke Johnson will help but he will not be the 70+ target or 50+ catch back here. He will help the O no doubt with his presence but hard to see that production.

If you want max value, you don’t wait until another RB gets hurt. You trade the player to a team that doesn’t have a GM.
John Dorsey is playing chess.

Interesting...The Duke Johnson trade was done by #Browns GM John Dorsey and #Texans coach Bill O’Brien, I’m told. Without a GM, Houston has several qualified personnel people assuming different roles, but it was O’Brien on the phone with Dorsey.

I think we gave up too much for him.
Awww yeah dang good pick Bill O'Brien. Just what the doctor ordered
One thing I've noticed is that even though the purports to use the new England spread ep system, he is extremely reliant on RBs.
Very much unlike how the Pats do things.
