Texans are up, can't wait to see who it is!

A lot of good options: Everette Brown, Brian Cushing, Tyson Jackson, Peria Jerry, or our pick of RB's.

Or even trade back up to 5 spots and still get one of these guys.

Yeah, alot of good options.

BTW I will make my pick between 2-4 PM tomorrow if Lork has already selected.

The Texans select . . . EVERETTE BROWN, DE, FLORIDA STATE

It was between him and Cushing, but I feel that the need at DE is much greater than at SLB. Didn't expect Brown to last this long anyways so this was a no brainer for me.

[mussop]

Not a problem. FYI I swapped the Raiders and Jags picks since steroid PM'ed me and let me know he would have taken Rey with the #7 pick. So the Jags get help on the o-line with Jason Smith since Barnes their current LT gave up 7.5 sacks this season. They can move Barnes to RT or shift him inside.

I figured we would go Brown. We need a DE who can rush the passer and Brown fits that mold. I think some see him as a possible 3-4 OLB, but lets hope that we get more out of this Florida State pick.

[TimeKiller]

I'd love it if the Texans came through with Brown. I think it would be awesome to see him bouncing around the line on passing downs, like the Mario expirement where he stood up to rush. I hope we stick with him and snatch him up to bookend Mario's all around game with a high-motor hellraiser.

[Ole Miss Texan]

I'm halfway on the Aaron Maybin bandwagon. sounds like he's adding some weight and could develop into a great pass rusher from the DE position.

[JCTexan]

With the 16th pick in the 2009 NFL draft…

The San Diego Chargers select…

Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU

This might be a bit of a reach, but with Igor Olshansky possibly leaving this becomes an area of need. I thought about both Mereno & Jerry with this pick, but the Chargers can take a RB later in this draft, & Jerry is more of a 4-3 DT then a 3-4. I tried trading back where I thought Jackson might still be available but I got no offers so I decided to go ahead and pick him here.

[bah007]

My pick isn't up, but I am at the #19 and I will be accepting trade offers.

I have already made an offer to a team, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

I have also already rejected one offer.

If anyone else is interested, PM me.

Daaangit, that's who I was targeting at 20!! 12 was too high for him. Nice pick for the chargers though.

Rickyb's NYJ's are on the clock.

Specnatz Bears are on deck.

Bah007 Bucs are in the hole.

After watching the bowl game against Wisconsin I see him as a 4-3 DE. He was constantly running stunts inside where he was beating solid NFL calibur prospects. He also showed the burst off the edge. I just can't take seeing Mario make up 1/2 of our team's sacks anymore, adding another pass rusher would make us deadly.

[TexansSeminole]

I like it. There are still alot of good players on the board.

At 26, I may think about trading down. If anyone was thinking about trading up and grabbing one of these late first round picks, I am potentially interested.

[Specnatz]

Anyone want to trade up?

[rickyb]

NYJ selects Brandon Pettigrew, TE.

<ESPN Producer: Queue music, roll clip>
MKJ: A perfect fit for an up-and-down offense. Brandon Pettigrew is a solid offensive weapon, and a huge upgrade at an underperforming position on an underperforming offense.

blah blah blah

Seriously, I think its a good fit.

My only regret is knowing that, had I not chosen Pettigrew, I am certain that Spec would not have chosen him.

Spec, you're up.

Rick

[Specnatz]

I love that pick for the Jets.
