Texans 2008 NFL Draft

[mattschaub#8]

booooo!!!!!!!! now what ....im bord

 

[GuerillaBlack]

Im bummed, but I wouldnt go that far. As long as we have Kubiak/Smith, I dont think we will EVER take a RB in the 1st round.

Let us who wanted Mendenhall vent.

I'm pissed right now, too. Don't know who the hell the Texans are going to pick.

And THATS a good thing.

 

[Hutch13]

Willie Parker and Mendenhall is a very scary duo.

 

[utahmark]

this kinda sux waiting for our pick but atleast we get some practice for next year when we pick 32cnd.

 

[Maddict5]

I am so pissed off right now, I am ashamed to be a Texans fan.

dude get over yourself! you sound like a n00b instead of a mod

'stoopid texans didnt take an exciting rb for me'

 

[ATRAIN]

Tits getting Limas?

 

[brakos82]

Everybody go "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" when the Titans make their pick and try to cause an earthquake in Houston.

OK, everybody get ready! BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[D-ReK]

Tennessee will take a WR, which is awesome since all the 1st round WRs suck this year.

 

[Honoring Earl 34]

That's a steal for the Steelers. We weren't going to take him even at 26 guys, so don't cry over spilt milk. We are taking Duane Brown. I would bet my lunch money on it.

What you got for lunch ?

 

[kastofsna]

go ahead and wait to see who Houston picks before throwing away your Texans jerseys.

 

[TexansFight]

Those who have the value charts, did we get value for our trade? I really wanted Mendenhall.

 

[GuerillaBlack]

You're grasping now.

 

[The1ApplePie]

So?
2nd rate Cb vs 2nd rate LT?

 

[New_Texans]

hmm, im guessing we have some kind of plan.

 

[awtysst]

I am officially annoyed at the Texans now. They had their choice of Mendenhall or Talib and they traded down and subsequently missed Sam Baker. Pathetic.

Why would you want any of them? Mendenhall we dont need, Talib is a red flagger, and Baker will be a disappointment at LT. Be glad the Front office got us extra picks and possibly a stud 1st rounder!

 

[mattieuk]

Dude ... if we were going to take him we would have done it .

Don't stop people's fun! Just because we traded down 8 places doesn't mean that we couldn't have re-traded back up :P

Common sense just gets in the way!

 

[brakos82]

Those who have the value charts, did we get value for our trade? I really wanted Mendenhall.

I think we gained about 10-15 points.

 

[BSofA04]

Y'all are more than welcome to get pissed, but the top 5 players on the Texan's board were long gone before we picked at 18...trading down was the Right move and the Smart move. It isn't always glamarous but adding picks from a desperate Baltimore was a welcome sight.

 

[GuerillaBlack]

Do you even know who the first rounder is?

 

[Mailman]

Tits getting Limas?

Of course. Bud Adams is an *****.

 

[TheRealJoker]

Between Jenkins/Cason/Brown here it looks like. I'd like to see another trade down I think we can still get one of those guys and grab an extra 4th or something haha

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

Looks like Devin Thomas is going to the Titans.

 

[Brandon420tx]

Dude ... if we were going to take him we would have done it .

Stop twisting the dagger!

 

[JCTexan]

So?
2nd rate Cb vs 2nd rate LT?

Jenkins is still on the board. I don't think he's 2nd rate.

 

[TEXANS84]

dude get over yourself! you sound like a n00b instead of a mod

'stoopid texans didnt take an exciting rb for me'

With a good RB, we got to 7-9 under david carr.

Now we still have the mash unit.

 

[BSofA04]

I'll second this, Baker's gonna have issues in the NFL. Talib had chararctor issues and Mendenhall wasn't necessary (see RB shelf life)

 

[ATRAIN]

Your not going to find out who VY truley is LMAO!!!

 

[awtysst]

Do you even know who the first rounder is?

Im going to laugh if we draft J Charles.

 

[TexanSam]

I am so pissed off right now, I am ashamed to be a Texans fan.

That's a little hardcore...RB isn't our biggest need right now anyway

 

[kastofsna]

if the Titans want to give Young a receiver, they need to take the best one in the draft in James Hardy.

 

[brakos82]

Boooo!!!!

 

[Maddict5]

You're grasping now.

thats what it sounds to me like.. i loved mendenhall but a trade with extra picks is likely to be more beneficial long term

saying you're 'ashamed' over that says alot to me about football IQ

 

[TEXANS84]

That's a little hardcore...RB isn't our biggest need right now anyway

We haven't had a 1,000 yard runner since 04. I call that a priority.

 

[brakos82]

Booooooo!!!

 

[D-ReK]

Titans take Chris Johnson hahahahahahahaha

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

Chris Johnson? lol

 

[Brandon420tx]

Not bad.

 

[Brando]

select Chris Johnson

 

[Hutch13]

hahaha. Chris Johnson?

 

[endzone815]

OMGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!! Chris Johnson

 

[Maddict5]

lol chris henry V2

 

[The Pencil Neck]

Those who have the value charts, did we get value for our trade? I really wanted Mendenhall.

I'm not sure what the 6th round pick is. I think we might have actually lost a little bit.

18-26 is 200 points. The 26th in the third shows as 140. 26th in the sixth shows up as 29.8. So that totals 169.8. But I'm not sure if it's the 26th in the 3rd or not.

 

[kastofsna]

2nd straight year reaching on a RB, right?

 

[awtysst]

hmmm

 

[ObsiWan]

I'm thinking we'll take Kenny Phillips. We've needed a play making FS for a while now.

 

[The1ApplePie]

Chris Johnson?

 

[Mike Kerns]

Chris Johnson?

 

[brakos82]

Booooooooooooooooooo!!!
