kastofsna's Full First Round Mock

[Huge]

6. Houston - JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU - Has all the measurables, it's up to Gary Kubiak to develop Russell further. I think next year is Carr's final chance to prove he's worth the #1 pick, otherwise he's gone and Russell takes over.

That's the only pick I'd have a problem with. Well, not really the pick but the reasoning after the pick.

Why draft a QB with the 6th overall pick and then give Carr another year to prove he's the guy? If he proves he's the guy, then what do you do with Russell?

If they draft a QB in the 1st, next year is Carr's last in Houston...if he's even around for next year.

You are crazy to think they will draft a QB with the first pick.

Bottom Line on DC is he is a guy who has taken 248 hits. If you want a top prospect...gotta go get 1 when you habe a chance. Russell's very raw. But he is a big time prospect. I like that strech a heck of a lot better than the option we were presented with last year. Russell is coachable. And..has an NFL delivery.

Look at our secondary - we still need help there! Laron Landry is a stud - ballhawk - can hit - is spoken of as a leader - would probably start day 1.

If we're at 10-ish - Landry is a good solid call. However, if Russell is on the board, I'd be cringing. I'd love to have that cannon on the Texans! Denver did it last year and NOBODY saw Cutler going to the Broncos.
