Basically yes.
Nick Caserio - New GM

- Start date
That's what he was saying and I agree with him. Although drafting Anderson would be very tempting.

Yes sir, Mills is our franchise QB.
We have no idea who finishes where? Point is to maximize draft capital period. Something this franchise has fared miserably over its tenure in the league.
Really hate rehashing past drafts, we can’t do anything about. But if they really wanted Stingley trade down for Christ sakes, add draft capital then select him. Far as Kenyon, that’s real high to select OG with so few weapons for Mills. I could see it more if he kicks outside, which he may eventually do, but for now it’s not good value.
Drafting for need, Linderbaum, a true franchise Center would have been more important piece or Zion, who is a true inside player, that could kick into Center.

I could probably overlook Green's disappointing athleticism if he were strong but his bench of only 20 also indicates he is weak. Which makes me wonder, was he only doing enough to get by, coasting while at A&M? It's going to take him a couple of years minimum to catch up with the average athleticism of an NFL OL. IMHO I think Lovie promised Warhop this pick as an incentive to sign on as Lovie's OL coach. If I had to take an OG at #15 I would've drafted Cole Strange but my draft had Devonte Wyatt at #15. Ideally, I would've stayed at #13 and drafted Jordan Davis.

Yes sir that's true of course it was out of the blue and I'm in no way faulting the Texans organization for drafting a tremendous talent who turns out to have what in retrospect seems to have been some latent tendencies that proved to be very destructive.

Not trading Mills. If Bryce Young still on the board (not owning 1st overall selection) and Caserio can get a plus package in exchange, then you do it. Lot of points other posters submitted I agree with as well. We’re in building mode and need infuse of elite playmakers not just one.

I would say that Lovie has not only neutered Nick Caserio but Jack Easterby as well.
John McClain on Twitter: "The emasculation of Jack Easterby continues. For the first time since the Texans hired him in 2019, he’s not on the sideline during games. He’s been kicked upstairs, but he won’t be wearing a headset to communicate with Lovie Smith and Pep Hamilton." / Twitter

I am willing to bet that a picture of Caserio with a headset on will be shown at some point. That is what GMs do from time to time.
Caserio won’t be advising on plays and calls like he had to do with Culley.

Listening to the game and Marc Vandermeer on the Houston Texan's flagship sports radio station 610.

I kindly disagree.
Take a listen to this interview. It really gives some insight into Caserio and how he was brought up in the New England system.
