[Deshaun Watson](https://theathletic.com/nfl/player/deshaun-watson-2FClGss4NbY7sgLY/) trade with the Browns gives the Texans the necessary draft capital to move up a spot should they choose to do so. They got draft capital for two defensive players, [Roquan Smith](https://theathletic.com/nfl/player/roquan-smith-OkyvmIUSQqk1rUXH/) and [Robert Quinn](https://theathletic.com/nfl/player/robert-quinn-HPeGfLh2GVZRl5nA/). Given this is a franchise that could be on the verge of hiring a new head coach for the third in time three years, depending on what happens with Lovie Smith, it’d be wrong to assume the Texans will follow conventional thinking and take a quarterback with their first pick in the 2023 draft. [Houston Texans](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/texans/) finished the regular season with a 32-31 win against the the [Indianapolis Colts](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/colts/) on Sunday. The best thing for Poles to do is to bring in as many blue-chip players as possible, and that means trading down to a team that will give up a lot for Bryce Young or whoever is the top quarterback. Possessing the second overall pick puts the Texans in position to find a quarterback who is, even if some fans are be disappointed in Sunday’s outcome. The Bears did finish 32nd in the league in passing, but Fields didn’t have much to work with, and he became the best running quarterback in football. [Justin Fields](https://theathletic.com/nfl/player/justin-fields-ZOZNyO5HimYRdNoh/) showed growth and had some electrifying moments. There is the unknown about Poles and what he thinks about Fields compared to the quarterbacks in this draft. The victory in the regular season finale boosted the Texans’ win percentage enough to secure the first overall pick in this year’s draft for the [Chicago Bears](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/bears/). The Bears have needs up and down the roster. [Browns](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/browns/)) [Jets](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/jets/) [Patriots](https://theathletic.com/nfl/team/patriots/)

NFL Draft order 2023: Updated list of picks for every non-playoff ... (Sporting News)

The Chicago Bears are on the clock. With the early window of Week 18 games officially closed, the window for securing the No. 1 pick is shut, as well.

Clemson's Myles Murphy could also find himself in that discussion. Some consider the Kentucky passer to be a first-round talent, while others believe he may fall out of the first round completely. — The Broncos traded pass-rusher Bradley Chubb to the Dolphins for a first-round pick prior to the 2022 NFL trade deadline. 7-10 Houston flirted with the No. Will they trade the pick for a haul?

Texans 2023 NFL Draft order: What will Houston do at No. 2 overall ... (Sporting News)

Houston entered the final week of the 2022 season with a 2-13-1 record, needing only to lose vs. the Colts to secure the top overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft.

The Texans also have a second and two thirds (one from Cleveland) to use as leverage, as well as future draft capital. Houston would also retain the remainder of its draft capital in this scenario. This is the best-case scenario for Houston, which would still be able to draft its preference between Young and Stroud with the second overall pick. 3; or the Colts at No. Assuming the Bears do end up trading back, that sets Houston up in a disadvantageous position. Houston entered the final week of the 2022 season with a 2-13-1 record, needing only to lose vs.
