http://walterfootball.com/nfldraftgrades3.phpHouston Texans: Kahale Warring, TE, San Diego State B+ Grade
Kahale Warring started just five games at San Diego State because he played other sports. However, he’s extremely physically gifted and possesses unreal upside. The Texans will need to coach him up very well to develop him, but Warring has Pro Bowl potential down the road. Perhaps he’ll be able to develop into Houston’s first potent tight end since Owen Daniels.
They took 2 tight ends last yr and signed Fells. Where is the foot speed outside or in the backfield? Are they just going to hope and pray Fuller comes back? More importantly, stay healthy. Again, another project.Not gonna wait til we see him for a year?
I may be wrong and this is with no inside knowledge on this particular transaction, but I wonder if BOb and Gaine saw NE picking at 87 and thought this was their Gronk pick to make before Belichick.based on two starts in 2018? Seems like OB still trying to find his Gronk---keep drafting an hope lightning hits. Warring is a physique and an athlete but little shows he is an athlete. Later in draft well maybe but here? SHeesh. He just trashed his 2018 TE picks. I can and have defended the reaches for Howard and Scharping but this is one I just don't get.
I wanna be wrong but I despise this pick.based on two starts in 2018? Seems like OB still trying to find his Gronk---keep drafting an hope lightning hits.

I think Griffin is gone. I like Thomas still but Atkins isn’t that great plus he’s old. Warring is the best blocker of the bunch. Having to defend warring and Thomas will be difficult for teamsI wanna be wrong but I despise this pick.
So OBrien is revamping the offense again? Now with a bunch of TEs?https://www.sbnation.com/2017/3/29/15092436/texans-tight-end-position-y-f-u-bill-obrien
Replaces Griffin in a 3 TE offense.
It's obvious TE is very important to this team and they will continue adding players until they are happy with what they have. This kid has Kittle/Kelce ceiling.Love the kid - nice athlete.... but exactly how many TE's does one team need? I'm fine with BPA and all that, but it just doesn't make sense to me, OK Griffen gone makes sense, but you drafted two last year and signed one in FA.
Who have you already given up on?
https://www.rotoworld.com/college-football/cfb/player-news/headlines/9000971?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitterTexans selected San Diego State TE Kahale Warring with the No. 86 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
Warring (6’5/252) turned pro as a redshirt junior after playing high school football for only one year, walking onto the Aztecs’ team, and tallying a 51/637/8 (12.5 YPR) receiving line across three seasons. A star prep basketball and water polo player, Warring helped himself with 79th-percentile SPARQ results in Indy, including a 4.67 forty and 36 ½-inch vertical. Sure handed and known for his tireless work ethic, Warring especially popped on game tape for his run blocking as an in-line tight end, and his arrow is still pointing up as a pass catcher. Warring is a sleeper to develop into a Kyle Rudolph-level pro. Although he’ll likely spend his entire frosh campaign developing, Warring joins a subpar tight end group led by default starter Ryan Griffin.
Or is continuing the revamp at the TE position that got started last year (which wasn't realistic to have completed last year). 2 hand picked OT's and now the 3rd TE. No excuses for having the the TE's confined to pass protection this year and BOB's offense should be on full display for the world to see. Make or break time for BOB IMO.So OBrien is revamping the offense again? Now with a bunch of TEs?
Not completely thrilled with the pick given other huge glaring holes on the roster, but I got to admit.. that does sound very intriguing.Comparison-
Lance: Todd Heap
John Harris: Travis Kelce
Griffin gone, Fells a blocker, Akins moving from TE to H-Back and Thomas/Warring as starters in 2 TE sets. In the red zone it will be Thomas/Warring.
I'm definitely okay with that.
yeah maybe as PATs seemingly have lots of nothing at TE but I liked our TEs way better than our running backs and Harris is going to hurt lots of teams for many years. If Julian Love and Snell can be had later I'll smile. I need to review my notes on RBs as I'm missing a late round guy I liked but cannot remember. He was a 5'9" guy 200 pounds IIRC that some of us talked about a little. Perhap Miller will repeat and have his best career season and Foreman will prove his worth and Colvin earns his $ on a return to mental as well as physical health. Colvin wanted to play outside but didn't look good anywhere when on field.I may be wrong and this is with no inside knowledge on this particular transaction, but I wonder if BOb and Gaine saw NE picking at 87 and thought this was their Gronk pick to make before Belichick.
Just my initial thought.
I would have preferred alternate picks too but if this guy works out, he has large upside.They took 2 tight ends last yr and signed Fells. Where is the foot speed outside or in the backfield? Are they just going to hope and pray Fuller comes back? More importantly, stay healthy. Again, another project.
I still want Houston to make a move for Duke Johnson. I know and have worked with Duke and he just needs an opportunity for more touches.yeah maybe as PATs seemingly have lots of nothing at TE but I liked our TEs way better than our running backs and Harris is going to hurt lots of teams for many years.

Gaine needs to bring Duke and Patrick P to Houston and that would be a substantial upgrade and promising off season for the Texans.I still want Houston to make a move for Duke Johnson. I know and have worked with Duke and he just needs an opportunity for more touches.
We say this every year then he fires someone and we repeat the whole thingOr is continuing the revamp at the TE position that got started last year (which wasn't realistic to have completed last year). 2 hand picked OT's and now the 3rd TE.

Did you miss the 300 pages of excuses for why BOB's offense sucks last season? Excuses gone now = good thing imo. Plus, it's hard to imagine our O not being much improved.We say this every year then he fires someone and we repeat the whole thing
He already has an excuse lined up. Devlin.Did you miss the 300 pages of excuses for why BOB's offense sucks last season? Excuses gone now = good thing imo. Plus, it's hard to imagine our O not being much improved.
I think they are looking for that home run. It creates competition leastwise with 5 of them. 2 will likely disappear before the final 53.Say what you will about the previous 3 picks, at least the Texans addressed major holes. But TE? Again? With a 3rd round pick?? I don't understand this organization's infatuation with freaking TEs!!! Especially when they don't even incorporate them into the ******* offense.
At least 4, but the draft isn't over.this is a dumb a pick. how many tight ends do we need?
Nope. Hand picked coach.He already has an excuse lined up. Devlin.
Well there are already Bob defenders here calling for Devlin to be firedNope. Hand picked coach.
3this is a dumb a pick. how many tight ends do we need?
So which one is gonna get cut?
Any other team that actually uses their tight end and I would like this pick. Given the fact Houston has drafted seemingly more tight ends than anyone else, I don't like it. Would've preferred another offensive lineman or secondary player.Say what you will about the previous 3 picks, at least the Texans addressed major holes. But TE? Again? With a 3rd round pick??

If they had only been this way with OL.It's obvious TE is very important to this team and they will continue adding players until they are happy with what they have. This kid has Kittle/Kelce ceiling.
Not sure there's anyone defending BOB's retaining of Devlin. Hand picked GM picking hand picked players coached by hand picked coaches. This is BOB's team good or bad at this point. And for a guy that's been hard on BOB, I've got to admit that things are looking up. I'll be confident when he shows me something but I can feel the optimism creeping back.Well there are already Bob defenders here calling for Devlin to be fired
Well said and I wish I could like it 10 more times.Say what you will about the previous 3 picks, at least the Texans addressed major holes. But TE? Again? With a 3rd round pick??

Which two?So which one is gonna get cut?
Griffin is already goneWhich two?
Romeo could have taken the first CB off the board, ended up with the 8th because OBrien panicked when Dillard was taken.Well said and I wish I could like it 10 more times.
Ob thinks he's onto something and chasing the wet dream he had with gronk and Hernandez.
In the meantime, our team will continue to suck at other positions while we burn valuable picks at te. How is Romeo not absolutely livid about this?
Stupid.
I said it as soon as it happened last season.. Jordan Akins was a horrible pick. You dont draft 26 year old projects..especially in the 3rd damn round. By the time he figures it out (if he ever does) he'll be coming out of his athletic prime. I always liked the Thomas pick a LOT more and knew he'd be the better TE (6th round pick.)I think Griffin is gone. I like Thomas still but Atkins isn’t that great plus he’s old. Warring is the best blocker of the bunch. Having to defend warring and Thomas will be difficult for teams
