With rumors and news of the Carolina Panthers likely to select Alabama quarterback Bryce Young as No. 1, the Texans are open to trading the No. 2 pick.

Per NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, Texans general manager Nick Caserio said at his predraft news conference that he's received calls from teams looking to trade up to No. 2, and he's open to listening to offers:

"Are we open for business? We're open to listening."

The Texans could be looking to trade down because there's a chance they won't select a QB. Per Peter King, he wouldn't be surprised if the Texans select edge rusher Tyree Wilson.

Like the No. 1 pick, the No. 2 pick holds a lot of value. Depending on how Houston trades back, the Texans will most likely receive at least one first-round pick plus more in return for the high pick.

Teams like the Las Vegas Raiders, Atlanta Falcons, Washington Commanders, Minnesota Vikings and Indianapolis Colts could trade up with Houston.

Many teams could take a quarterback in the first round, which is why there could be a good trade offer from another team for the pick.

Do you think the Houston Texans will trade the second-overall pick in the draft?
