    Haha I agree, but back then I was for signing Peyton, I just knew we didn't have the guts to do it. I have never been that high on Romo to begin with but now it's just asking to be let down.

    Funny enough when people talk about Payton Manning as a Bronco, the Broncos ended up in about the same situation the Texans are currently in when they won the SB. They had 2 bad QB's and a stellar defense that made up for it.

    I'm just going to hope he is the same as Mike Vrabel... That seemed to translate.

    A famous name? Certainly not performance, it was garbage all around.

    Or the fact that the Broncos came away with a Superbowl victory?

    And their issues have nothing to do with QB...it's the fact that they have one of the worst lines in the NFL and no running game. Trevor is far superior to anyone we have on the roster.

    Sure, the outcome was different.....but that was my point. They had absolute garbage from the QB position, in some ways worse than the Texans had this season, and they still won the Super Bowl.

    I'll take it
    I keep saying TE should be one of the major team needs. This draft is loaded with TEs.

    Well it would be a need if Ryan Griffin doesn't return, but #2 TE isn't THAT big of a need and if they had any faith in Stephen Anderson they'd be looking for a #3 instead of a #2.

    There are 2 TEs in this draft I would start ahead of CJ right now.

    Not sure who the Texans are going to draft but I would love to hear Vandemeer saying a name like Cordrea, ArDarius, Tre'Davious, and Ardoree. But i will also settle for Taco and Juju.

    Edit: Also Raekwon

    WalterFootball's most recent mock (1/26/17):



    [​IMG] Houston Texans: Pat Mahomes, QB, Texas Tech

    [​IMG]
    The Texans selecting a quarterback in the first round would've seemed unfathomable three months ago, but Brock Osweiler has been so horrible that he was benched in favor of Tom Savage, who isn't a good quarterback either. Unless Osweiler somehow impresses in the playoffs, I can't imagine the Texans going into next year with Osweiler and Savage as their only quarterbacks. They'd need to find someone else, and that someone else could be Pat Mahomes.

    Charlie Campbell reported that some teams have Mahomes slotted as a second-round prospect, but given that Mahomes is a quarterback, he's likely to be chosen earlier than most anticipate. The NFL Draft Advisory Committee apparently agrees, as they gave Mahomes a Round 1-2 grade. Thus, it only seems logical to slot Mahomes into this spot, because if the Texans like him, they won't be able to obtain him with their second-round selection.

    Pick change; previously O.J. Howard, TE

    Hope they do draft him there. Because like they said he may not be there at our 2nd pick.

    The growing sentiment around the league is that he will have a good combine performance thus making his stock skyrocket.
