Week 18 - Texans vs Colts: The Holding #1 pick all season until the end Bowl?

[Texansphan]

It wasn't just about the 1st overall pick, it was also the first pick in every round.

Depends on who is left on the board and we have trade chips too dude.

 

[nut]

We are one of the most screwed up, stupid, rudderless, worthless, ridiculous, etc etc etc in the history of the NFL. No make that in the history of sports.

 

[thunderkyss]

Because it is Cal and the Texans, Caserio will stay on, the nightmare of Bill O'Brien and Jack Easterby lives on in NRG, and we will now go thru another HC search fiasco, 3 in 3 years.

They all should be fired for this alone

 

[Thorn]

If they can't rebuild with the 2nd pick throughout the draft, then Casino ain't doing his job. After the 1st round, it doesn't matter.

 

[santo]

Or score in the 4th qtr

I say the Colts knew what they were doing. Seems like fools gold.

 

[thunderkyss]

No, the bears will trade down for a king's ransom with whoever wants Young badly enough.

Nobody is trading up for 195lbs of QB

But if Stroud declares then someone will.

 

[Number19]

Cleveland's pick will be #12.

That’s not the point. Lovie played for a tie in week one. Today was absolutely not about winning for the team. But for himself to stick it to Cal.

 

[Texansphan]

Another season with Mills isn't the worst thing that could happen. This team has so many holes, that just a better qb isn't going to have much impact. I'm ok with adding some offensive weapons and building up the defense before addressing the qb issue. I'm not huge on either Young or Stroud, and who knows....Mills could be better with some talent injected around him and better coaching.

This is why you bring in a vet.

Is Young worth the pick? Honest question from a guy who doesn’t follow college ball in any degree.

 

[Thorn]

We could still trade down for additional picks with the 2nd, if that's what they wanted.

 

[Brisco_County]

Yes if he doesn't get killed by 6'4" edge rushers.

But he has amazing anticipation and accuracy. He progresses through reads well and spreads the ball around.

 

[KA4Texan]

Yay! A win! Another year of Lovie, Pep, and Mills! Can't wait for it. Maybe throw in a kidney stone to make it complete.

Don't forget the proctologist appointment thrown in there so you can relive the drama DW style.

 

[zshawn10]

Welp I am going to cope and say things like Bryce is too small anyway

 

[Texansballer74]

Yes someone will lol

 

[Thorn]

If CJ is the consolation prize, I'll take it. Although I think I'd rather have the best lineman, of any flavor.

 

[Texian]

ACCURACY, you can't coach it, it is what separates the great QBs from the good ones.

 

[santo]

i hope he’s there at 2. I have a feeling he may go #1. At least Young looks better than Mills. lol

 

[Speedy]

Held the #1 pick since week 9, and blow it in the last minute of the last game. Only the Texans.

 

[Texansphan]

You think Chicago takes Young?

 

[Brisco_County]

Cal should have fired Lovie last week. The 30 point blowout loss to Jacksonville would've been the perfect cover for it.

 

[Texan Asylum]

Is there an NFL QB, current or previous, that his relative size and skill set mirrors that I may be able to relate him to?

 

[MEGA SWATT]

What an idiot MF team.

Please recommend other teams to bandwagon for 25 years until the Texans have new ownership and are on the up and up.

* thx for deleting my original post admins.

just ban me


please

 

[Brisco_County]

Until he beats us twice a year with Indy.

 

[Decim8]

Like I said, the Houston Texans are the laughing stock of the NFL.

Cheer up buddy, regardless whether it’s pick 1 or 2……..caserio was going to choose the wrong guy anyways

 

[nut]

How can we fire Cal? He is not blameless.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Eh maybe.

 

[Texian]

Imagine the lineman you could have had with SEA 20th pick.

 

[Brisco_County]

Kyler Murray size, Drew Brees arm talent. Maybe shorter than Murray.

 

[KA4Texan]

Ignore the Texans completely for as long as it takes.

If enough people do the same.... one way or another.... he goes away or the team does.

 

[thunderkyss]

Definitely skinnier than Murray, that's the big issue, imo.


But the fact that Murray was drafted #1 overall, I could very well be wrong about a team being dumb enough to trade up to get Young, even though Murray has been a joke.

 

[gwallaia]

Kyler Murray is 5’-10” , 207 lbs

 

[Texian]

Is Young worth the pick? Honest question from a guy who doesn’t follow college ball in any degree.

He is by far the best QB in this draft. The Mannings said he was head and shoulders above all QBs at their passing academy.

 

[Texian]

Kyler Murray is 5’-10” , 207 lbs

I'm thinking Young is closer to 6'.

 

[Thorn]

For all yall who are crying over us losing the 1st pick, what the hell makes yall think we'd have done something intelligent with it?

Murray's size has not been a problem. It's his head.

I was watching CJ Stroud at 6am this morning. Watched Bryce Young earlier in the evening. They are very close in talent. Stroud seems to be more cerebral and smooth. Young is small, but .... very competitive, movement is quick .... may force it at times. After all is said and done, I don't know that their value isn't too close to call !

 

[Texian]

Cleveland's pick will be #12.

They will move up to 8 in the 2nd round.

I hope we do take Stroud if he’s available. At this point I wouldn’t mind Young either. I just don’t want to see Mills for another season.

I remember losing to the 49ers to secure the right to select Reggie Bush at #1

 

[TheMatrix31]

He is by far the best QB in this draft. The Mannings said he was head and shoulders above all QBs at their passing academy.

I don't know anything about college but I love intelligent players with (I presume) good work ethic. Nothing else matters nearly as much, really. JJ taught me that.

 

[Number19]

Great, hadn't looked that far ahead.

Maybe they were just hoping to get him a commercial deal for some shampoo.

Yeah, we got Mario instead. Both of them should be a reminder that the number 1 pick doesn't always translate to good things.

Our first number one pick ever should be a reminder for all time of the dangers of this team taking a #1 over all QB and putting all your fandom eggs in that basket.

Serious question .... was Stroud there ?

 

[DBCooper]

I have no doubt we can still get the most overrated injured player at #2

 

[Number19]

They will move up to 8 in the 2nd round.

I don't think we have their two. We have their three. 3/9?

 

[santo]

Probably not. Says he was supposed to attend.
