The Official Houston Texans Draft Days Discussion Thread

[leebigeztx]

Not going OL at 3 and taking Kenyon Green tells us they view Howard as OT. Green is a set him and forget him LG starter for 10 years+. The high floor dependable player to balance the high risk ceiling player taken at 3.

Now time to see who is available at 37… or if the Texans trade back up into the first for another player they covet. WR or Edge rusher next are my picks.

Howard can be a probowl rt to me

 

[AcresHomesTexan]

AJ brown to eagles

for 18 and 3rd

 

[Jack Burton]

Well, at least Texans don't have to worry about AJ Brown in the division anymore

Who did TENN just take?

 

[wildroot]

Friend John texted me that rumor of KC and Houston trade coming. He lives in KC...

KC have some 6th round picks they want to move?

 

[leebigeztx]

Who did TENN just take?

Haven't drafted yet

 

[powda]

LT Tunsil
LG Green
C Britt
RG Cann
RT Howard

But the draft isn’t over yet.

I'm down.

 

[Thorn]

So now we got a 2nd round pick, 2 3rds, 3 4ths, 3 5ths, and 2 6ths to go. That's a lot of picks.

 

[SnakeEyes]

[justmy2cents]

So our projected starting ol is what now?

I KNOW THIS ONE ...... Slow, Fat, Weak, and Underwhelming !!!

 

[leebigeztx]

I knew Burks to Titans

 

[SnakeEyes]

Well played

 

[Jack Burton]

I knew Burks to Titans

From one excellent receiver to another.
PHIL just paid Brown 100 mil with 57 guaranteed.

 

[powda]

What did I do this time, Penguin?

Dislikes are his way of saying hello. Wear it like a badge of honor. He got me today to.

 

[Texansballer74]

no several sources IIRC said Lovie loved Sauce. If Sting is the outlier he will be better than Gardner.. if

Yeah I know Lovie loved Sauce.

 

[TexansFan15]

How are y’all getting picks before Goodall announces? We must be on a delay in the Northeast.

I follow bleacher report and they typically announce before the TV announcement

 

[TheRealJoker]

Texans can get to KC’s 29/30 for roughly the same price they got for their trade down according to drafttek trade value chart. Would be slick maneuvering if “their guy” is available. But one of those targets, Treylon Burks is going to be testing our new first round pick in Tennessee!

 

[leebigeztx]

AJ brown to eagles

for 18 and 3rd

good trade for both

 

[badboy]

Friend John texted me that rumor of KC and Houston trade coming. He lives in KC...

I thought KC wanted to trade up not down?

 

[mussop]

Johnson linderbaum Booth Hill Lloyd McDuffie Pitre. Please give me any one of these guys.

 

[TexansFan15]

Anybody believe we trade back into the 1st..?

I would love it if we did!

 

[badboy]

Kenyon Green 21 YOA

• Started at three different positions – RG, LG, LT – in three consecutive weeks (2021)
• 3 pressures allowed over final seven games (2021)

 

[Lucky]

AJ Brown being traded to the Eales, wow..

This draft is getting nuts?

Is Green better than Johnson?

Close. Green is a OG with OT versatility. Zion is a OG with C versatility.

Green had a poor combine, and was a Junior and not available for the Senior Bowl. Johnson had a better combine and a good Senior Bowl. Green has the better resume, being a top college lineman since he enter college.

 

[TexansFan15]

Who did TENN just take?

Burks

 

[steelbtexan]

They coulda had a much better o lineman.

You will see, next yr the run game will be much improved. Iwas wanting Neal and Green to solidify OL for yrs. But hey Green was a great pick. I've watched him since high school, a man amongst boys.

Now trade back into the 1st for Johnson and call it a night.

Also worth noting, its hard to consistently play like a first round talent (like Green did) when you are being shuffled around as much as Green was moved.

 

[leebigeztx]

Thats the going rate. Its better to pay them a little early or move off of them and draft replacement. WR are becoming like rb's because everyone throws the ball in little league through college

 

[badboy]

Edge is the more valuable position so Johnson is higher on my board. But Green has a longer list of college achievements as a multiple year all SEC OL who has started at multiple positions. I love a first round guard like Kenyon Green. This team has literally never had an interior OL with his pedigree before.

i thought he was asking about Green compared to OG Zion Johnson.

 

[Jack Burton]

Yeah, I see why they did it. Save some serious coin.

 

[KarlK]

smh.....Jets, Giants And the Lions all destroyed the Texans in the "sorry teams with multiple first rounder" sweepstakes.

 

[leebigeztx]

Sounds like Howard right?

 

[KoolAid Sipper]

Maybe the Titans didn't want to pay AJ Brown since he always seemed to have a lot of minor nagging injuries

 

[TheRealJoker]

Now imagine if Texans trade up with KC to leapfrog Bengals and take Linderbaum?! OL would look a lot different next season!

 

[justmy2cents]

Well ..... Good for the Saints !!

 

[Texan Asylum]

So now we got a 2nd round pick, 2 3rds, 3 4ths, 3 5ths, and 2 6ths to go. That's a lot of picks.

Booyah! Huge capital to work with for sure…maybe a bundle of those to move into the second or even the first round for. All bets are off for sure!

 

[TheRealJoker]

Its a fair point!

and I see that happening with texans

 

[powda]

and I see that happening with texans

I really don't wanna like your posts but I was thinking the same.

 

[TexansFan15]

Pickett to Steelers

 

[Thorn]

Booyah! Huge capital to work with for sure…maybe a bundle of those to move into the second or even the first round for. All bets are off for sure!

This is a deep enough draft this year where they could get good players all the way through the 4th round, maybe the 5th if they draft well. The problem with that is I don't like they way they've drafted so far, so I just don't trust anything they do. Yet.

They can still redeem themselves in my eyes, but this 1st round sucked because of Stingley. If the Texans can run the ball better because of that guard, then I'm all for it.

 

[Lucky]

Well ..... Good for the Saints !!

You have to respect the Saints draft style. They know what they want and go get it.

 

[steelbtexan]

I thought it would happen but now I don't think we will

Liked for your avatar.

It’s cool the guy gets to stay in PITT and prove himself.

So the same sorry azz OL as last year except replacing Sharping with Green.

 

[JWTexans]

Leave it to the Texans to screw up the season in April.
364 until 2023 draft.

 

[Decim8]

Now imagine if Texans trade up with KC to leapfrog Bengals and take Linderbaum?! OL would look a lot different next season!

That be amazing

 

[KoolAid Sipper]

39 years after their mistake, the Steelers hope they got it right this time.

Sharping sucked knob.


Already better here.

Pickett to Steelers

I didn't have Pickett in the 1st, but he's a good pick for this team.

 

[steelbtexan]

Is Green better than Johnson?

Yes, IMHO and more versatile.

Bread and butter, long term players at an economic level…more bang for the buck. I like multiple picks rather that shooting the proverbial ‘wad’ on a few.
