One of the reasons to keep your starters out of the preseason:

I just got home from my fantasy draft, turned on NFL Network and saw him get injured.
I am sorry for him.
Of course I had drafted him!!!!

According to Daniel Popper, that was Miller’s first snap in the preseason.

It’ll be interesting to see if TT now gets a call.

It’ll be interesting to see if TT now gets a call. The Texans recently spent a 3rd round pick to trade for Duke Johnson. Can’t imagine that they’d be willing to give up the necessary draft capital and meet MGIII’s/Baggins’ contract demands, especially when they’re going to have to pony up for their their franchise QB. |

Duke Johnson is a third down back. Their offense is built around ball control.

Duke Johnson is a third down back. Their offense is built around ball control. What a stupid move to give up a 3rd round pick for a third down back. Don’t see them giving up an even higher pick and paying MGIII $13 million / season with two full seasons guaranteed for knee-injury prone MGIII. That would be a panic trade that will damage the franchise long-term, but if they gave up a 3rd round pick for a third down back, maybe they can be suckered into another short-sighted trade. |

If we’re gonna trade him I want a starting player not a pick. |

No club is trading for Gordon, as he simply is not worth the contract he seeks.

IMO That’s even less likely to happen on the Texans end than a draft pick offer. |

From the comments section of Daniel Popper’s article today:
Q: Great work Daniel. With the Lamar Miller injury last night have you heard any Melvin Gordon trade rumors? Would Clowney for Gordon possibly be a fit? Probably a bit outlandish but it crossed my mind.
A: The Texans won't give Gordon the extension he wants, which is prerequisite for any trade. They also just gave up a third-round pick for Duke Johnson. So I think it's highly unlikely.
