For the first preseason game of the season, this game is pretty important. Important for Babin & Robinson. Oh it's not going to make or break their careers. But you know what they say about first impressions. More important for Babin.
Robinson was the smart money, obvious pick. Without question, one of two corners in the draft with the apparent potential to be a shut-down CB. The other one wasn't on the board when we picked at 10, we needed a CB, no-brainer to take Dunta. Babin on the other hand, he was(and remains I think) as controversial as Robinson was obvious. For the first time, Houston metro - the fan base(mostly on TV, alot in person) will see these guys in full-contact,
full speed, game type environment.
And hey, thanks to the hasty departure of the Cowboys starter, we probably get a chance to see another one of our recent draft picks. He won't be playing for us of course. If Drew Henson gets in the game, a bigger audidence than Houston Metro will be watching.
But I'm really gonna have my eyes glued on that tube when our D is out there. Pretty big game for jsut the pre-season opener !
