What the Houston Texans will do with the No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick is still anybody's guess.

Pro Bowl wide receiver Andre Johnson has an idea of his own.

"I have thought about different scenarios," he told KTRK-TV on Wednesday. "Me personally, if I had it, I would probably trade it, but that's just my opinion."

Johnson is one of the Texans' biggest stars, but he knows he doesn't make team decisions.

"Doesn't mean they should listen to me, because I am not the GM," he said. "I have never had to sit in the draft room like that."

The Texans need a quarterback, and the two favorites have been Johnny Manziel and Blake Bortles.

Would Johnson welcome Johnny Football to Houston?

"(Manziel) seems like a good kid. Very into football," Johnson told the Houston Chronicle. "He's exciting. He's an exciting player to watch. I enjoyed watching him in college. He doesn't have the name Johnny Football for nothing. I think he's a great player."
