Guessing Clutch and Castro are busy... How do yall like this pick? They traded with the Jets to move up. More details to come.
love it! i wanted him if we were gonna go receiver. he has really good hands and could be a poor man's AJ. great possession receiver and has size.
Hate it. Wanted Lockett. Hate that both of the guys I wanted them to get were nabbed just before we traded up for them.
Don't really like it. We still don't have a guy that can go over the top of a defense. Strong is a poor mans Hopkins.
Can someone post some youtube highlights or links to the players? I'm at the Astros game but would like to read something on the way home.

Sorry for double post, I love this pick But... it kind of is worrisome so many WR's went ahead of him. Not saying it's a bad pick, but what is it that NFL GM's know about him that we don't?
Love it. He's kind of a mix of Hopkins and Andre. Probably won't be as good as either but he's a steal at this point. Our receiving corps is solid. What was the trade?
Texans select Jaelen Strong. Jets get DeVier Posey, 82nd pick (Round 3), 152 pick (Round 5) & a 7th-rounder.(Cleveland Pick)
He was frustrated about the rumours of needing surgery on his wrist and apparently blew off teams wanting to recheck it. He had already been cleared I believe.
Yes. Inconsistent route running, plays slower than combine time, tough time getting separation. Wins at the catch point though.
I guess an outside rusher will have to come via trade. The coaching staff must also prefer Savage to anything left in this draft as well.
it's a complete steal. He could turn out to be a taller version of keenan mccardell, one of my favorite receivers with great body control in the mid 90s, also sank in draft due to injury speculation, though in his case it was legit.
Tons of mock drafts had us taking him 16th overall (which is probably too high). But as a third rounder he's a great pickup.
