2011 NFL Draft: Round 2/3, Texans with 42nd and 73rd picks/Thread(Reed/Harris)

[badboy]

Two priority holes filled and an A draft going so far. Hope the trend continues.

 

[awtysst]

Can we put it into Reed's contract that he cannot cut his hair?!

 

[J_R]

TE Kyle Rudolph to Minny
WR Titus Young to Detroit

 

[VTexan]

Quick Third Round List:

Stephen Paea, NT
Brandon Harris, CB
Martez Wilson, ILB
Rahim Moore, FS
Quinton Carter, FS
Brandon Burton, CB
Davon House, CB
Tyler Sash, SS
Quan Sturdivant, ILB
Jerrell Powe, NT

I'd add Gregg Little to that mix.

 

[XI CMURDER IX]

Or some wide receivers now like Titus Young or Jerrel Jernigan?

Nope, I like the list he has. No offensive players till the 4th round at least. Kerley from TCU will be there too in the 4th hopefully

 

[wolf123]

Okay now that we picked our required amount of white people in a draft, that it!!

 

[gary]

I say go NT or CB in the third round.

 

[fiasco west]

I am very excited for our defense. I think Kareem will pan out, how many CBs play well their first year? He was also a hard working determined player like these two guys we have.

If Wade is only here for a little while at least we'll see how defenses should be built. The pressure this front 7 gets should make it so much easier when these guys don't have to cover for 4-6 whole seconds.

 

[Dutchrudder]

I'm hoping for a good NT in the 3rd. Good CBs will be available in free agency, NT's are more difficult to find.

 

[srrono]

another motor playr 4th or 5th round Casey Mathews

 

[CharloTex]

Can we put it into Reed's contract that he cannot cut his hair?!

This could reinvigorate Cushing. He'll think he's playing next to Mathews like days of old.

 

[LikeMike]

I say go NT or CB in the third round.

I say go S in the 3d - unless a NT like Paea falls... I really want us to draft a veteran CB (if not Aso, perhaps Taylor), and I think some of those S can step in and contribute day 1.

 

[The Pencil Neck]

Nope, I like the list he has. No offensive players till the 4th round at least. Kerley from TCU will be there too in the 4th hopefully

"He"? I was amending my own list.

 

[XI CMURDER IX]

another motor playr 4th or 5th round Casey Mathews

Heck yeah! I want to keep the high motor, hard working players coming. Much rather have them!

 

[BetaV1]

Need to get a safety in the next round. No corner. No nose tackle. Get a safety.

 

[GP]

Right now. 6:06 p.m. The ticker at the top of their website says Da'Quan Bowers.

Huh???

www.espn.go.com

They know something we don't?

 

[Maddict5]

id actually be very cool with double dipping and taking chris carter aka my fave olb!

 

[XI CMURDER IX]

I just need to face palm myself, hold on. :kubepalm:

 

[CharloTex]

Crank it up a notch!! Bammmmm!

 

[LikeMike]

Funny... I guess someone was so sure about this pick, he didn`t even care to look who we actually picked...

Texans were willing to trade up with New England to get Brooks Reed at pick 33; smart gamble staying put

[fiasco west]

one name, Brandon Burton he could be this drafts Glover Quinn

 

[mariowillshine15]

We need another cb who can knock hail mary passes straight to the wide receivers lol.

 

[awtysst]

one name, Brandon Burton he could be this drafts Glover Quinn

Good call sir! He would be a great addition in the third. He is a hometown guy too.

Rahim Moore to Denver

Then that means Wade Phillips really really really wanted Brooks Reed.

If that report is true, and the Texans were contemplating moving up to get him at 33, then that means Brooks Reed wasn't a consolation prize we took just because a targeted guy wasn't there for us at 42. Wade wanted Brooks Reed.

Helping the defense. That's a good sign. No project picks at WR or TE or RB. Just sticking with gritty, scrappy Defense players.

 

[GP]

The guy at espn.com must have switched our pick BACK to Brooks Reed now.

 

[J_R]

Broncos take Orlando Franklin, T, Miami

 

[The Pencil Neck]

Broncos take Orlando Franklin, T, Miami

I had him as a guard on my board.

Let's hope this starts a rush on OL.

 

[SAMURAITEXAN]

I like the way Broncos is drafting.

 

[LikeMike]

And what I really like: those guys are hard workers that always give 100% on every play - that is huge. It could be infectious and get guys like MW off their asses on some plays. Those are guys that do everything to win - that put the team before themselves (at least it seems like it) - those are the kinda guys we need. I´m ecstatic.

 

[srrono]

we need some help a run of offensive players or trade up grab some more talent on defense

 

[J_R]

I had him as a guard on my board.

Let's hope this starts a rush on OL.

You're probably right. Mel agrees with you that he'll likely end up as a G. I just put it as tackle because thats how they announced it. But yeah.

 

[J_R]

St Louis just took our TE!

Lance Kendricks, TE, Wisconsin to St. Louis

 

[CharloTex]

D'oh, there goes our TE

 

[The Pencil Neck]

Smithiak has a sad with Kendricks off the board.

 

[The Pencil Neck]

here's the spot for Da'Quan. The Raiders.

 

[phantom17]

End of an error.

 

[Carr Bombed]

Man if you need a TE, Wisconsin is the place to go.

 

[mussop]

I say the Raideras take Chris Culliver DB South Carolina

 

[J_R]

Raiders select C Stefen Wisniewski. Just who Jon Gruden wanted them to take.

 

[fiasco west]

I miss the Raiders and their annual WTF pick in the first round.

 

[fiasco west]

Colts traded up?

 

[CharloTex]

I miss the Raiders and their annual WTF pick in the first round.

Maybe Al Davis is on life support and they got a hamburger flipper from Burger King to make their selections, cause their doing better.

 

[Dutchrudder]

Colts just traded up for the Redskins spot. I'm guessing they are targeting Paea.

 

[Ndevine7]

Colts traded up?

my guess would be marvin austin or stephen paea
