Here it is Lucky.

 

[Htownsportsfan]

What took so long to get this started?

 

[TEXANRED]

Did Aldridge get drafted?

 

[Xcellerator]

Sign Tommy Blake, Erin Henderson, and Darrel Robertson please.

LAS CRUCES —Former New Mexico State offensive lineman Mike Martinez said Friday he is hopeful of getting drafted or signing with an team after this weekend's National Football League Draft.

The 6-foot-4, 330-pound Martinez was a four-year starter for NMSU and played at center and tackle.

He recently worked out for the Buffalo Bills. He's also had contact with the Washington Redskins, Houston Texans, Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins.

not sure but
a tidbit

 

[camron1269]

and ali highsmith and the best guard available
id also like adarius bowman from OKState

 

[HoustonFrog]

Sign Tommy Blake, Erin Henderson, and Darrel Robertson please.

I think Chase Ortiz from TCU at DE can be brought it also...good player.

 

[Lucky]

Eric Young of Tennessee & Drew Radovich of USC are interior linemen worth investigating. Tommy Blake is the most intriguing player left.

 

[Errant Hothy]

The punter Dragovitsch is also an option, kid has a howitzer for a leg.

 

[Errant Hothy]

Martel Van Zant might be an interesting option as well.

 

[Rex King]

Joey Haynos TE, 6-8 268 Maryland. Good blocker, to eventually replace Breuner.

 

[nero THE zero]

Did Gary Guyton get drafted?

edit -- Nope, wouldn't mind bringing him in.

 

[drewmar74]

The punter Dragovitsch is also an option, kid has a howitzer for a leg.

Probably makes it hard to by pants.

 

[TexanSam]

Anthony Aldridge! He probably doesn't get a look with us since we drafted Slaton, but it would be neat to see in a Texans uniform anyway.

 

[brakos82]

I'd welcome him in.

 

[BSofA04]

Tommy Blake, Erin Henderson, Darrel Robertson and Adarius Bowman for sure.

Consider Radovich and Spanos.

 

[texasguy346]

Not sure if DJ Hall has been drafted, but he'd be worth a look if he's still available.

 

[brakos82]

This is the most excited I've been for the next pick since... the second to last pick.

 

[triplethreat]

Ali Highsmith!!!!!!!! Please pick him up, if he puts on some weight he could be a defensive playmaker.

 

[kastofsna]

get that Danny Woodhead guy

 

[rmartin65]

Danny Woodhead
Brian Witherspoon
Curtis Johnson
Weston Dressler
Rudolph Hardie
Thaddeus Coleman

 

[adam]

Ali Highsmith would be an excellent addition. I'm actually rather surprised that he wasn't taken in the 7th.

 

[camron1269]

im surprised he lasted past the 4-5th

 

[Hottoddie]

Here's a few I'd like to see brought in for a look-see.

Eric Bakhtiari (DE)
Louis Holmes (DE)

Ezra Butler (OLB)
Ali Highsmith (OLB)
Shane Simmons (OLB)

Travis Williams (CB)

Shannon Boatman (OT)

Xavier Lee (QB)

 

[camron1269]

drew radovich.
we do not want xavier lee hes terrible.
dj hall or adarius bowman maybe
the signings usually take place right after the draft right? like within a couple of days

 

[Hottoddie]

Within hours.

 

[kastofsna]

Miami already signed WR Davone Bess. nice.

 

[gg no re]

The punter Dragovitsch is also an option, kid has a howitzer for a leg.

I'd sign him just for his name

 

[J-Russ]

We should get this dude.

 

[J-Russ]

Miami already signed WR Davone Bess. nice.

Teams can start signing UDFA? wow that was fast.

 

[Xcellerator]

We should get this dude.

We already got Steve Slaton. = /

 

[mexican_texan]

I want Franklin Dunbar

 

[Hagar]

I wouldn't mind seeing us bring in Jonathan Zenon as a FS. Give him a shot. I think if he can keep everything in front of him, he might have better instints.


Position: CB
Class: Sr
School: LSU
Conference: SEC
Ht: 5-11.5, Wt.: 191
40 Time: 4.51

BIOGRAPHY: Two-year starter who also saw action with the first-team as a sophomore. Senior totals included 45/3/9 after 27/4/16 prior year.

POSITIVES: Average sized cornerback with limited upside for the next level. Plays faster than his 40-time, displays a quick break to the throw and stays with opponents throughout their routes. Displays a willingness to defend the run and a sure handed tackler who brings ball carriers down on initial contact.

NEGATIVES: Bites on ball fakes, blows assignments and tends to lose a sense of where he is on the field. Struggles making plays with his back to the ball and marginally instinctive.

ANALYSIS: Zenon has been a productive cornerback at LSU yet lacks the size and speed to be anything other than a situational player in the NFL. His best opportunity at the next level is backing up in a zone system.

PROJECTION: Undrafted Free Agent

 

[Xcellerator]

Vikings got Erin Henderson. = [

 

[drewmar74]

Danny Woodhead
Brian Witherspoon
Curtis Johnson
Weston Dressler
Rudolph Hardie
Thaddeus Coleman

Per KFFL Woodhead signed with the Jets

 

[ccdude730]

i think will robinson might be worth a look

 

[threetoedpete]

Ezra Butler (OLB)
I like him alot....was watching the Bell kid and he caught my eye. he is a bit stiff in the hips but he can run all over the feild. Big guy.... 245. I thought he was a better player than Bell.

 

[TexansSeminole]

Here's a few I'd like to see brought in for a look-see.

Eric Bakhtiari (DE)
Louis Holmes (DE)

Ezra Butler (OLB)
Ali Highsmith (OLB)
Shane Simmons (OLB)

Travis Williams (CB)

Shannon Boatman (OT)

Xavier Lee (QB)

I am a proud Florida State Seminole, but if we look at either Xavier Lee or Shannon Boatman I will question our administration big time.

 

[GlassHalfFull]

Per the Chroncle we have signed:

After the draft, eight free agents were signed: South Florida middle linebacker Ben Moffitt, Troy outside linebacker Marcus Richardson, Baylor cornerback Josh Bell, Auburn tight end Cole Bennett, Miami receiver Darnell Jenkins, Hawaii receiver Grice Mullin, Colorado State defensive end Jesse Mading and Utah defensive tackle Gabe Long.

Now I have to research all these guys and give Kubes a call. I was kind of hoping we would give Marcus Dixon a look, but I guess his past won't let him be Texan. He would have been nice opposite Mario.

 

[Lucky]

Colorado State defensive end Jesse Mading

Hey General McClain, it's Jesse Nading.

 

[beerlover]

Hey General McClain, it's Jesse Nading.

good catch. makes sense another CSU prospect. now we got a pair David Anderson, Mike Brisiel

 

[Porky]

Hey General McClain, it's Jesse Nading.

That's not the worst flub he had. He said Kyle Shanahan compared Slaton to Masrhall Faulk. Ummm, no Mclame. He compared him to Kevin Faulk. But don't let facts get in the way or anything.

 

[Lucky]

[Specnatz]

Hey General McClain, it's Jesse Nading.

He is not the only one getting that wrong? Unless this sites gets its info from the comic section of the local Houston paper.
