    It seems this can be said about every Texans trade.

    Yeah, everyone but Tunsil was going to be cut.

    He was the fins best player easily There is a reason why they said they would revolt he might not be as good as Trent Williams yet but he is durable and can still get better he is a top 10 tackle way better than kalil

    Zach Fulton might be the best lineman on the team. Nick Martin might be the worst of the starters. Henderson is not too far behind him. I think the best combination is:
    Tunsil, Tytus, Fulton, Scharping, Henderson. Backups are Roderick Johnson, Senio Kelemete, Matt Kalil, and Greg Mancz. I would have traded Nick Martin away tbh.

    I agree with this we still haven’t seen Dillard play a game even with Dillard we would have a hole at LG and RT which Howard can play either I expect Howard to go back to the RT side now unless sharping steps up after this season

    How is Howard more of a sure thing than Dillard? At this very early stage Dillard has shown more promise.

    Almost forgot to ask: how is Tunsil's versatility? Can he play all five spots? I know Bob loves his versatile players. @Nimo

    O’Brien saw Morey give up first rounders for Westbrook and figured that’s just how you’re supposed to do it.

    I think he just called out the owner for financially supporting Trump. I don't think he actually called him a racist. He and the owner actually had a face to face meeting and "agreed to disagree". He also wasn't a fan of Jay Z's deal with the NFL. Definitely doesn't sound like O'Brien's type of guy.

    I'm waiting for B.O.B.'s presser saying "Matt Kalil is the starter at LT. Tunsil is starter at center.".

    Technically no. Let's say the Texans drafted Dillard in the 1st and still drafted Scharping in the 2nd, they could have Dillard, Fulton, Martin, Scharping, and Henderson on the line. Scharping can move to right tackle; he played tackle in college.

    on the field? Absolutely. He has "healthy Will Fuller" potential.

    Looks like he may already have a secret agreement to join Miami next year.
