Not bad. A bit of a high price, but no first rounders. And you get quality blind side protection for the best looking young QB last year.

Commanders acquired LT Laremy Tunsil and a 2025 fourth-round pick for Washington’s 2026 second-round pick, 2025 third-round pick, 2026 fourth-round pick and 2025 seventh-round pick.
This is a wild trade on its face for the Texans: They are moving on from their only true left tackle and not getting much in the way of premium picks. Tunsil had a 89.1 PFF pass block grade in 2024 and while he’s never been good as a run blocker, he’s been acceptable out there. But Tunsil is entering his age-31 season, and getting off his contract frees up $13.8 million in cap space for the Texans. The Commanders, meanwhile, have solidified the offensive line for Jayden Daniels. And while 31 seems old in the NFL, elite left tackles have played well into their 30s. It’s a puzzling move for the Texans on first blush, and they will now have the burden of replacing Tunsil without anything more to show for it in 2025 but third- and seventh-round picks.

A 2nd next year holds the value of a 3rd, same with the 4th in 2026. This is not a lot to give up for a premier player at a primiar position who is under contract for 2 more seasons, I would have thought for sure it woiuld have involved one of this year's top picks.

Gotta say I'm surprised they pulled the plug on Coleman at LT so quickly. They obviously saw something. It's also not a given that he will be an upgrade at guard and believe it or not Wylie played pretty well last season. Interesing to see how it plays out but the OL was clearly upgraded with a proven commodity and that's huge.

I hear ya, but I think with Jayden healthy and this staff, we will never be bad enough to get top tier talent.
