    Hell yes.
    You're smoking right? The Longhorns sucked but this guy is a freaking beast inside the tackles. Something we do not have at all. Love it. He did it all with a **** o line too.

    Good point. PFF had him as one of the elite RB pass blockers in college football.

    I didn't mean it as an insult to foreman lol, I meant it as a "finally he'll have a better version of the power back than Alfred blue."

    He'll be the hammer half of a running back tandem like blue was supposed to be, but he's better.

    Offensive line options are pretty weak IMO. The ones on the board would have been a reach. In addition, I'm just on board with getting Foreman. It's great to have a Texas City kid on the team.

    Foreman pairs great with Miller, but I'd have rather had Conner, who is a similar player, with 4B.


    This means the end of Blue and/or Ervin.

    I don't get it......why did we need a RB? I thought Lamar was fine and Blue complemented him.

    We need OL help.....

    Foreman/Miller will be a legit duo.

    Excellent draft for the Texans so far. Couldn't land that tackle, but got great players at every spot.

    Conner? Nope.

    Hopefully it's the end of both.
