They've lost Larry Tunsil, Clowney & now Hopkins because Bill O'Brien doesn't particularly like them as players or a "fit" ?

IMO this trade will back fire with the Texans and cause coaches to lose their jobs.

They just traded this past season for Tunsil, so I'm pretty sure he's still with the team.

I agree the other trades were terrible outside of Clowney. They didn't get much for him, but he was in the last year of his contract. His demands are out of this world considering his production. He's not a bust, but has far from lived up to his #1 overall pick. He also gets injured quite a bit.

I meant Bill O'Brien traded multiple picks (2 1st rounders/in addition to acquiring Stills) to obtain Larry aka King of False starts.

Those are some bold moves that have yet to pay off. He's a decent HC but I'll never confuse him with Jeff Ireland at GM.
