Would the texans drop back from #15 and take the top safety in the draft since the top pass rushers maybe gone before #15? I would love Rashad Johnson in Houston but I would like to drop back and maybe pick up a possible 2nd or 3rd round pick and go DE in round #2.
 
Would be really nice if we somehow landed Unger or Mack in the later rounds (I'd be fine with Luigs too)

i saw that too. his o-line rankings are uncharacteristic of what i've seen so far. other than Mack dropping to #3 he has Luigus as his number one guard leap frogging Duke Robinson and he has Jason Smith as the #1 OT which is new to me as well.

from what i've seen the popular pick goes something like this
1.) Andre Smith/ Micheal Oher
3.) Eugene Monroe
4.) Jason Smith

So they're interesting picks of coarse.
 
Its too bad safety is the worst position in the whole draft. Maybe not a first round pick among them

That does not automatically mean there will be no good players at the position to come from this class.

Historically safety was never a position drafted in the 1s round, anyways.

I'd love some Rashad Johnson in round 2

The USC fan in me is glad Taylor Mays is comming back but the Texans fans is sad:thinking:
 
Don't be sad. He and Eric Berry will be chosen early next year and it might push Kam Chancellor back to us.


Eric Berry will most likely go top 10 and maybe top 5 and after a good draft this year, I wouldn't be apposed to trading up for him next year.
