Ed Werder is reporting that the Houston Texans and Atlanta Falcons have serious dialogue about a trade scenario that would allow the Falcons to move up to No. 1 to select the player of their choice.
ESPN's Ed Werder on SportsCenter: "The dialogue between #Texans, #Falcons has been legitimate & continues as we speak."

More Werder: "Word on the street" is #Texans asking #Falcons for RG3-like haul to get from 6 to 1. (That was 3 1st-rounders & 2nd-rounder.)

That player was always thought to be Jadeveon Clowney, but recent reports have the Falcons smitten with Auburn offensive tackle Greg Robinson as well.
Atlanta is desperate to better protect Matt Ryan, and Robinson is a beast of a player.
