Texans Make Trades: Acquire Keion Crossen from Patriots; Nab Carlos Hyde for Martinas Rankin

Carlos Hyde, the former 57nd pick out of Ohowihateohio State in 2014, will slide nicely and directly into Alfred Blue’s role of slamming against the back of the nearest offensive lineman. Hyde, who turns 29 this year, has been an effective back in only one of his five seasons in the NFL, and he’s now joining his fifth team in two years. Over the past two years, Hyde has gained 3.7 y/a, and he’s ineffective in the passing game.

By all accounts, he had a terrible pre-season for the Chiefs.
