Bulls on Parade
2017 Astros: Earn It!
We got it right on that one but for some reason we didn't reap the rewards and gave up on him too soon. He played one year here under Mike Devlin and wasn't that good.Brooks: rated 4th out of 188 OGs. Expected to be drafted in the 2nd round
It appears the Texans drafted players they thought could be "coached up" or were getting a bargain compared to their expected draft position. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for them.
But Brandon Brooks has turned into one of the better offensive guards in the league. Made his first pro bowl in 2017 on a Super Bowl winning team. He should make his second straight pro bowl this year.
Apparently, Brooks was miserable here in Houston.

He nearly retired because of Bill O'Brien. Brandon Brooks leaves Houston, has fun playing football again, and he becomes a Pro Bowler at OG. Interesting... Not only is his bank account bigger than ever he has a shiny Super Bowl ring on his finger.
