    My advice: pay the Adams whatever the fuck they want to get the Oilers name back.  They can keep records.  We get name and uniforms.   Profit.   I have a hard time getting into the Texa

  • They could have drafted Cody Ford or Greg Little. NO BRAINER picks.  But no. They pick some project from nowhere. They’re trying to be the smartest guys in the room when you don’t have to

The Browns!!! The fucking Browns, the worst franchise in recent history move up and take another Texans need. Greedy Williams gone. I hope they have some OT in mind. Maybe some development project pick from Steven F Austin.. basketball team.

They’ll trade out of the second round and select a punter they’ve been keeping under wraps.

Do the Texans not get that they should not just wait their fucking turn and can move up to grab a guy they want. We have 2 picks in a row to be disappointed

I liked McCoy 

Would have allowed it as well.

2 picks coming up

Don’t fuck this up. Don’t fuck this up. Don’t fuck this up. 

A trade is in...The Houston Texans trade the 55th pick for the 54th pick from the Texans.

How do you know who they want? I agree that they seem passive but unless we see their draft board, it’s tough to judge.

Must’ve missed it. When and where did Hicks go from Philadelphia?

Signed with the Cardinals this offseason.

Agree, with one of the two.

Maybe Should take the versatile OU guard with the 2nd

Wanted Layne but Johnson should be fine as long as we don’t ask him to read

Edited by Neonmoon

So 2 OTs and CB. We may not agree with the picks, but the Texans addressed their needs.

I also disagree with spending extra draft capital to make moves. Too many holes on this team not to draft 6-7 prospects.

The needs were addressed but I do not agree with the choices made.

I dont love the pick - however, i'm not going to claim to have watched a second of Alabama St. film.     It is concerning that he is labeled a project and that i get the feeling that they are happy with the idea of "well at least no matter what he can be a guard"  

 

If I'm Cal, i would pull Brian and BOB into my office and ask them.

1.  Where on their board did they have the tackles rated.

2.  If there was a gap between Philly's new tackle and ours, i would know there was a process problem and that probably i don't have the right guy leading my team that would allow Philly to jump us for the guy we really wanted.

3.  If there was not a gap (one rated a 92 and one rated a 91.75 for example) then i will know if it doesn't work out that its an evaluation problem.

And as they walked out of my office, i would say simply "okay - you better be right., you will find i'm not nearly as forgiving as my dad was"

 

 

Want a job as a GM? You're already better, but you're obligated to hire Kubiag if you fire Bob.

Aaaand he's too dumb to spell his own name. Cool.

Offered by OSU, could not qualify. Offered by ISU, couldn't qualify. Lands at Kentucky. Kentucky must have some very strict academic standards. "Is he breathing?.."

I like the CB pick, and getting some tackles. I will not ageee with taking Henry with the 23rd pick no matter if he gets inducted to the HOF some day. If they were dead set on taking him, he would have been there for one of these last 2 picks, and probably for their next one.

Dude chill. Anything they do you will not be happy.

OL / CB / QB / RB ...... lot of holes on this roster 

 

So either they drafted their bookend OTs, or they seriously fucked up and will be gone in the next 1-3 years. The problem is will Watson still be able to play for the next coaching staff.

goddamn a lot of crybaby know-it-all bitchass fucksticks up in here.

jesus fucking christ some of you are just spewing dumb overreactions because that's your default position with the Houston Texans and the NFL draft.

Calm down.

 

I like the film. Maybe dumb question but it looked like he was play RT in those highlights. I’m guessing he has film being on the left side as well because everyone said he is versatile and can play LT and Guard. I hope we play him where’ve he feels comfortable.

Fan made highlight video of Howard: 

 

I don’t think you’ll find many that wouldn’t be fine with picking him. The issue seems to be when he was picked.

Nailed it. 

I wouldn’t mind seeing them take a 3rd down back that could catch some balls out of the backfield, but maybe a little later. Couldn’t they use some linebacker help?

By the ESPN rankings, he was the #6 OT (IN SPITE OF how raw he is and playing D1AA). The #2 and 3 OT’s were off the board, and the #1 OT (Taylor) has two questionable knees. So they reached over the OU and KState guys, then ATL picked the #8 rated OT seven picks later also passing on Taylor, Ford, and Risner. Several other teams also passed on those guys over the next 15 picks. Put it into perspective, not as “sky is falling” as it first seemed to many. 

They ended up with the #6 (with upside) and #7 rated OT’s and the #8 CB (with big size and SEC coverage skillz lol). Most fans would have been happy with that before the draft given the expectations of this front office and coaching staff. 

Would have been sweet to move up 7-10 spots and get Greedy though. People would be saying they pwned the draft if that had gone down.

I wouldn’t mind taking another DB. with Luck back on track and the rest of the division teams throwing the ball pretty well, the more competition in that area could only help.

That’s true too...especially with Hal retiring.
