GREAT pick with Su'a-Filo. My top rated guard on the board. He's powerful, mean and has very good feet.
Did Wade Smith retire? Can he play right tackle? What am I missing here?
I liked our starters on the left side when healthy. Duane Brown had lingering health issues and we had no running game. Right tackle was problematic all season. I guess Wade Smith is old so they needed some young blood.O-line was a major problem last year that hindered anything we wanted to do. I like this.
I wonder who saw this coming?

Beef up the trenches. That is always a good thing to me. Especially on the O line.
I agree completely. This strategy has me stoked.
I read up on this guy after Vinny mentioned him earlier today. I know if Vinny is big on someone, there is definitely something good going on. Liked what I read, and this really shows the mentality of this coaching staff to dominate the LOS.

I logged in last night just to see who Vinny was high on.
New #Texans LG Xavier Su'a-Filo started at left tackle at UCLA as an 18-year-old true freshman. Won Morris Trophy as Pac 12's Top OL in '13.
That's what I'm thinking, too.I also projected we trade back into this rd...we'll see
Anyone knows if this kid could play RT? He played LT (not very good apparently), is said to be strong and quick with great hands and feet. Sounds like he could be a RT...

I would have preferred a trade down, but I love this pick. I'm glad to see the Texans putting an emphasis on adding some beef to this team and the importance of the O-line. This is the way this team should have been built from the beginning.
Texans are probably trolling the entire and NFL, and don't even intend to draft a QB. A solid OL will benefit whoever ends up as our QB anyway
