I represented the Texans for the first two rounds of the jaguars.com Mock Draft. Results posted here for evaluation at how I defended our honor!
So, after 2 rounds and many trades, the Houston Texans have:
Traded away SS Eric Brown, SS Glenn Earl will take over #1 spot (#13 + Brown + 4th for #6 + #58 from Titans).
Traded #6 + #73 + #78 for #25 + #56 + DE Trevor Pryce (trade bait so that I could complete ...)
Traded Pryce + 56 for #31, #59, #63, #77 (3 party trade with Philly and Atlanta)
Traded for 3-4 NT Ed Jasper (in the 3-way trade above), who will provide experienced depth behind resigned FA Seth Payne.
Traded #31 and #77 for #18 (Denver)
Traded #18 and #63 for #11 (Dallas)
Traded down from #25 to #35 + 4th round #122 and WR (Atlanta picked Elton Brown in the 25 spot, I landed Baas at 35)
Traded for WR Dez White (In the above trade down), who will compete for the #2 and #3 WR spot with the departure of FA #2 WR Bradford
Drafted:
At #11, Adam "Pac-Man" Jones, who will start at nickel back with Dunta Robinson and Aaron Glenn at #1 and #2 CB and Demarcus .gins at #4, each of the four would have some claim to being the best player in the NFL at their depth spot.
At #35, David Baas, OG/C, who will replace whichever of the two under-performing linemen (C McKinney and RG Wiegert) he beats out in training camp.
At #50, Kevin Everett, who will start at TE, moving Billy Miller into competition with Jabbar Gaffney and Dez White for the #2 WR spot.
At #58, NT/DE Luis Castillo who will provide depth at all Dline spots in preparation for taking over for Seth Payne or Gary Walker.
