I'm sure CB is going to be a top priority for the Texans in the 08 draft-
IMHO, Cornerback, Running back, & Center. Not necessarily in that order.
At the same time, I'm watching games all around the league today, and people are getting burnt left & right.
Nine ther QBs threw for more yards than Peyton did today, and Drew Brees hasn't even suited up yet.
19 receivers have more recieving yards than Reggie Wayne, who had no touch downs. 51 receivers had a better day than Marvin Harrison(no touchdowns).
So yeah, go ahead and cry & moan about Petey, but it could be worse.
Now, I know the worst argument you could ever use for any player, is that there are worse players out there. & I'm not trying to make excuses for Petey. But I think some folks are a little harsh on him.
Nobody in this league has two shut down cover corners.
WRs get paid mad money & Petey is relatively cheap, even when you consider what we're getting out of him.
(Man I'm watching the Cowboy Bear game, and Adam Archelletta just gave up a touchdown to Marion Barber. I'm thinking about how soooo many people just want to ditch CC Brown. Archelletta has been abused by Barber & Whitten, both scoring TDs on him. )
Anyway. We don't have stars at every position. but we've got a pretty good team. Petey is a good football player, may not be the best corner in the leagu, but he's a good football player.
Let's just enjoy the ride, and trust Kubiak to do what needs to be done, when he feels we should do it.
