Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports that the Broncos and Texans are among the teams attempting to trade up in the first round of the draft.

  • Last we heard, Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer mentioned that there’s a lot of buzz about the Texans moving up in the draft. Breer explained that Texans GM Nick Caserio has been calling to gauge the price about moving up.
  • Russini previously pointed out that Caserio has a long history of draft day trades and he has already completed a deal with the Browns. 
  • Jeremy Fowler also heard the Texans want to move up, potentially for Texas OT Kelvin Banks. 
  • Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson got wind of the Broncos gauging the market to trade up from No. 20 overall, either for a running back or receiver. NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport and ESPN’s Adam Schefter also had similar reports.

This will be a buyer’s market in the first round, considering that there aren’t a lot of blue chip players available this year and there are a number of teams looking to trade back or out of the draft.

We’ll have more regarding potential trades as the news is available.
