Not a conspiracy theory, just has classic smokescreen potential while they feel out the rest of the draft. IIRC I don't think that there were a lot of strong indications that Mario was going to be the first pick in '06 until a few weeks before the draft.
Or, rather than a smokescreen, it's just random s*** people made up to create talking points like 95% of all reports this time of year.
Texans should not be looking for a "fair deal".. If the Browns want to move up they need to put their money where their mouth is. Simple as that. If not, Texans keep 1.1 & browns potentially lose out on the guy they want most. Win-Win for Houston.
I hate February mock drafts, but I like Doug Farrar's work for SI: http://nfl.si.com/2014/02/06/2014-nfl-mock-draft-teddy-bridgewater-3/
Ha Ha Ha Ha ... How funny is this shaping up... Texans are gonna talk themselves out of taking Icewater. Gonna go with hype and fanfair. If so....it will be a very costly mistake.
I'm not sure about that, Luck ran a 4.67 and he's a better athlete than Bridgewater, I think the 4.75 40 time could be pretty close to what we should expect.
I'm ok with them taking Bridgewater or Clowney oh but if they take Manziel dare i say it i would have to cheer on that team to the North for half the season.
Do you really think Bridgewater runs a 4.55? I mean it wouldn't surprise me if you do because you seem to have all sorts of crazy ideas about him.
ewwww NO. I want Bridgewater sooooooo bad. But, if the Texans drafted Manziel I would be disappointed, but not crushed. I do not think you can win a SB with Manziel, but he would be tons of fun to watch on Sundays. Please no Bortles. Please Please Please no Bortles. I don't like Clowney at all, but I'd take him over Bortles any day of the week.
It doesn't really matter what he runs because it's not a big part of his game. My guess is he runs a 4.6.
Well of course it doesn't really matter, but I have a hard time believing he'll have as good a 40 time as Andrew Luck, 4.7 something is more likely, which is why the 4.75 that random website was showing is pretty close IMO.
