The Official Houston Texans Draft Days Discussion Thread

[TexansFan15]

Have to add a d-lineman or 2 at some point. I won't mind more ol help either.

I like Mathew Butler or Amare Barno for DL.

 

[badboy]

Are there any good blocking TEs left?

Just my two cents but if we are going to be a running O trying to protect our quarterback, give me a athletic tackle and call him a tight end

Unless they're going to trade up for a lineman of some flavor, I'd just as soon see them stay with their 5th and 6th round picks. This team needs some half way decent camp fodder that will be slightly better than UDFAs (hopefully).

Isn’t WR Romeo Doubs still sitting there?
If he’s there still in the 5th, I’d grab him with one of those picks..

 

[justmy2cents]

Texans are on the clock.

Why not Zamir White, Zion McCollum, David Kinnard or Jamaree Salyar ? I have seen a complete lack of common sense in this draft .... not overstating .... complete lack !

How about someone better than Pharoh Brown?

I'm sure there's some TEs left that could do that. LOL

Like Darren Fells .... The Power Forward !

With less flags.

My top guys now are the CBs Woolen from UTSa and McCollum from Sam Houston. 3rd player? Sam Howell, QB North Carolina. I know I've spoken out about the Texans taking a QB in this draft. But it's the 5th round coming up, and Howell should have been taken in the 2nd.

Sorry, knee red flagged.

What about Shane Falco? Same build as Utah without the knee issues

 

[Texian]

I'm not that impressed with the draft so far.

The Texans draft room is more like a backyard BBQ.

Never saw The Replacements, but Keanu Reeves has got a terrible throwing motion.

I'd believe that .... bet they've got an 8 gallon keg in one of those lower closets !

No Texans trade this round. Did Casino have to make a Whataburger run?

 

[mussop]

Looks like we just traded up to 166

Give it a sec. He will.

I thought we had 166 to start the day?

 

[Thorn]

I thought we had 166 to start the day?

Yes. We still got two in the 5th and two in the 6th.

 

[mussop]

I’m seeing 166 and 170 now.

 

[powda]

Should be 166,170,205,207.

Nick hasn't eaten a carb since 2016.

Howell to the Commanders is a great pick.

 

[mussop]

Hell I don’t know just got home and am lost with all these trades.

 

[powda]

Understood. I'm not even sure my source is up to date.

I’d rather have Howell than Baker any day.

 

[The Pencil Neck]

We got the 166 pick from the Eagles for trading back from 13 to 15.

 

[rmartin65]

150?

 

[justmy2cents]

I still believe they ought'a get Kinnard and/or Salyar, just in case Howard, McCray, or Cann haven't suddenly become quite as special over the summer as Nick seems to believe they have .... I don't know, maybe they've discovered the secret !

 

[The Pencil Neck]

We just traded up to 150!

 

[Jack Burton]

We’re up. And Damn if Turner didn’t come off the board one pick ahead of us.

 

[JRingo]

Thomas Booker Stanford

 

[The Pencil Neck]

Thomas Booker, DT, Stanford.

 

[powda]

Trade to 150. Texans dt.

 

[Jack Burton]

Ha! Took Booker in the 5th in my mock.

[beerlover]

Great pick here, well worth trading up for. Smart, incredibly strong will be a starter. Again, great selection

 

[powda]

I presume we gave up a 6 to jump?

 

[badboy]

Sounds like another Blacklock to me and maybe should be a defensive end rather than a tackle in this system. Smart kid that may take a while to translate to NFL if ever.

yes

Agreed. He’s built and plays a lot like Drake Jackson, but he can hold the point in the middle.

 

[The Pencil Neck]

So we traded 166 (23.4) and 207 (7) for 150 (29.8). So we're a tad short on that one.

 

[powda]

Should be 170 and 205 left to go.

They left out his 31 bench reps .... with his physical traits and being from Stanford, should've made him a center !

for what is worth the NFLnetrok feed had at DE. Now the site has him DT. His size speed say 3 technique DT i.e. Blaylock.
