https://www.ndtscouting.com/solak-best-day-3-players-available-and-why-they-fell/Keke Coutee, Texas Tech (67 overall, WR9): Do you like speed? Sure you do. But speed receivers so often can’t do the little things: their hands are inconsistent; they don’t know how to maintain leverage down the field; they can’t track and attack the football deep. These aren’t issues with Coutee, which makes him a desirable slot player with return ability to boot–but sub-5’10 height and 181 lbs of weight are scaring off GMs. Ah well–a smart OC will get Coutee gadget touches and let him blaze.
We wouldn’t get one for him. He has shown no ability to be a competitive NFL player. He has no value. Unfortunately another wasted 3rd by Rick SmithWould you guys trade Braxton away for draft picks now that we have Coutee?
There are teams out there that are interested in Ereck Flowers who is one of the worst OT's I've ever seen. We got a 6th for Khari Lee. We could get something for Braxton.We wouldn’t get one for him.

I don't see why Braxton Miller and a 6th couldn't net us a late 4th early 5th. Coutee is a more polished WR. Finally a ready made slot weapon.There are teams out there that are interested in Ereck Flowers who is one of the worst OT's I've ever seen. We got a 6th for Khari Lee.

I tend to look at it as not having to rely on the defense to win games, but yes, I see them doing this too.It seems the Texans are going with the philosophy to make it easy to outscore their opponents to win games as opposed to the defense stopping opponents and hoping we can score a field goal to win a game.
yeah this could allow Ellington to concentrate on outside in 4 WR sets and insurance if Fuller or Hopkins goes out or needs a breather. It seems Keke could start game one as a true slot..strength and conditioning should bring him to Q tip from tooth pick.Wow Texans putting a premium on speed this offseason. Goes away from the bigger longer strong narrative but for the skill positions they want speed. They know how tough it is without a deep threat when Fuller is hurt and Coutee gives them another guy that can cause all sorts of matchup issues plus a HIGHLY PRODUCTIVE proven slot weapon instead of trying to convert Braxton Miller.
Played in spread offense which looks like Texans will be adopting more concepts to mask OL weakness.
Yeah if he can be 50 % of predecessors Crabtree and Welker he will make entire draft an Ahttps://twitter.com/AaronWilson_NFL/status/990268392631390208
Wes Welker handpicked this young man to be the next... Wes Welker!
When you have a young franchise QB you have to give him weapons that he can grow and have success with.It seems the Texans are going with the philosophy to make it easy to outscore their opponents to win games as opposed to the defense stopping opponents and hoping we can score a field goal to win a game.
There was an NFL analysis of the injury reports of 2016 which argue strongly that players less than 200 pounds are likely to be injured at high rates, and that those around or under 190 are likely to miss large portions of the season.One of the best receivers to ever play in Houston was pretty small (Ernest Givins), and he played in an era when the defense had free reign to take your head off after you caught the ball. These days, the defense is barely allowed to tackle you. The size aspect does not concern me.
So the bigger guys in the NFL are less likely to get injured and the little guys are more likely to get injured? Got it.There was an NFL analysis of the injury reports of 2016 which argue strongly that players less than 200 pounds are likely to be injured at high rates, and that those around or under 190 are likely to miss large portions of the season.
RS was one of many GM's and coaches that would have taken Braxton Miller. He was taken with the full expectation he was a couple year project in the least. So enough blaming RS for every choice that didn't pan out. At this stage in Braxton Miller's career he should be given at least one more season to show improvement.Unfortunately another wasted 3rd by Rick Smith
I don’t say much at all about RS. It’s fact that he was historically terrible in the 3rd round with his picks. Miller should have shown flashes in the last two seasons and that hasn’t been the case.RS was one of many GM's and coaches that would have taken Braxton Miller.

The worst part about Miller is that he's injury prone going back to college. Even if he ends up becoming the player that the team envisioned it's unlikely he'll stay healthy long enough to warrant a roster spot.I don’t say much at all about RS.

Let’s all hope that this 3rd year he shows something in camp and that there is a real hard decision to make for the coaching staff with which WRs they decide to keep and that Miller is one of the ones in the discussion.
A 7th rounder maybe, for Miller??Would you guys trade Braxton away for draft picks now that we have Coutee?
I'd keep Miller. Unless it became clear that he wasn't one of the top 5 WR's which might end up being the case.Would you guys trade Braxton away for draft picks now that we have Coutee?
UDFA they signed Toledo RB Terry Swanson & Washington RB Lavon Coleman.Edit:
And I just thought about something else...Texans didn't take any running backs. Foreman can't be counted on. Texans really have nothing else there to really speak of besides Miller and he isn't all that either. Texans should be looking at every option they can to get some better play out of that position.
Yeah I knew they had picked up the udfa’s Just mean they didn’t take any in the draft. Saw some of Coleman clips and he looked pretty good.UDFA they signed Toledo RB Terry Swanson & Washington RB Tavon Coleman.
I think Swanson makes the team.UDFA they signed Toledo RB Terry Swanson & Washington RB Lavon Coleman.
Blue is still unsigned. Not at all unlikely that we are interested in resigning him.I think Swanson makes the team.
Probably. I think Foreman starts the year off on PUP.Blue is still unsigned. Not at all unlikely that we are interested in resigning him.
Antonio Brown has seemed fine most of his careerThere was an NFL analysis of the injury reports of 2016 which argue strongly that players less than 200 pounds are likely to be injured at high rates, and that those around or under 190 are likely to miss large portions of the season.
Hopefully the entitlement program down on Kirby has ended with the regime changeSorry. Brax for a pick doesn't make sense.
Nobody is giving anything for him.
The end.
not sure how your post relates to Doc's? I'm fairly sure on any statement exceptions can be found but how does that counter the statement?Antonio Brown has seemed fine most of his career
Always easy to find exceptions. Common sense rules.Antonio Brown has seemed fine most of his career

I gave Mr. McNair your cell # and told him to call ya; between the two of us, we should get this team straightened out.The regime seems to be making major changes where I think they needed to change.
