1. The Texans aren't going to give up a 1st round draft pick for freaking Gio. Gio may be good, but ultimately we're talking about a backup RB who couldn't stay healthy when he was starting. Heck he got hurt the year before that too. 1st round picks are essentially gold in the NFL. I know we all love Gio, but other teams wouldn't value him that highly.
2. I like having solid depth at RB, and we're guaranteed to have Gio for this season and next season at a cheap rate. In order to trade him, I'd want a 2nd rounder or a player that would really help us. Of course, the Texans aren't likely to part with that much, as Arian Foster is only going to miss half the season.
3. People aren't going to like this, but I'd consider trading Gio at some point. He's a FA in 2017 and there's a good chance he'll go to some team that needs a starter and is willing to pay. I know people get sentimental on here, but it'd be wise to let him go and draft a cheaper replacement. Hill is definitely the RB we need to pay.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
