Marc Vandermeer and John Harris react to the biggest Texans news day of the offseason so far as two trades are reported by the media before lunchtime on the Monday before legal tampering.

First, there are reports that Tytus Howard has been dealt to the Cleveland Browns for a fifth-round pick, followed by his signing of a three-year, $63 million extension with Cleveland. The guys acknowledge that Tytus, despite his versatility, never settled into a true position.

Then the guys break down the reports that Houston will land RB David Montgomery in a trade with the Lions.

The back half features John's Combine interview with Fran Duffy of All City Philly, who provides an expert-level draft deep dive tailored to Houston's needs. Duffy sells Garrett Nussmeier as the best non-Mendoza quarterback in the class despite knee concerns, identifies pass rush as the draft's deepest position (Keldric Falk, Arvell Reese, David Bailey, Ruben Bain Jr. as four of the top six players), and breaks down offensive line targets including Monroe Freeling, Caleb Lomu, and a Nigerian-born Arizona State tackle who didn't play high school football and learned to put on pads at junior college. Duffy and Harris geek out over center prospects Connor Liu (Auburn, torn ACL) and Logan Jones (Iowa, handpicked by Tyler Linderbaum as his successor), and Duffy offers a Felix Jones comparison for Jadarian Price while warning that Price won't last to the second round. The show closes with news of the Chiefs releasing Juwan Taylor and the Cowboys working to extend kicker Brandon Aubrey.
