Texans like to play smokescreen at the combine, often not talking to the person they eventually draft. This is a different regime, though. My opinion, as of now, is that we take a corner in the first, go after a tackle in free agency, and then take two linemen with the next three picks.
Interesting some dude from the Draft Network said the same thing a few weeks back. Said Texans has a chance of grabbing their choice of CBs. I doubt that actually happens though.
Those are rough times for Baker. Few other notables: Kris Boyd - 4.45 Trayvon Mullen - 4.46 David Long - 4.47
An offensive tackle prospect for every round https://brownswire.usatoday.com/201...an-offensive-tackle-prospect-for-every-round/ First round: Andre Dillard, Washington State Dillard performed quite well in pass protection in a Cougars offense that was quite similar to what Baker Mayfield played in at Oklahoma. He also turned in a very impressive combine workout: PFF Draft ✔@PFF_College Andre Dillard had a 94.0 pass-blocking grade this season, which was best among offensive tackles (min. 300 pass-blocking snaps). He just ran a 4.99 40-yard dash. (Via @NFL) Second round: Greg Little, Ole Miss No, not the Browns receiver of the same name from a few years back. This Little offers outstanding size and four years of starting experience, though his combine workout showed a more limited athlete that makes his lapses in pass protection for the Rebels a little more troublesome. Still a capable NFL starter in the right fit. Third round: Yodny Cajuste, West Virginia His power-oriented pass blocking game reminds me of current Browns starter Greg Robinson, making him a natural project to succeed Robinson if the Browns opt to move on after another year. Fourth round: Michael Deiter, Wisconsin Deiter played all five offensive line spots over his Badgers career. His best position is probably at right tackle, but his versatility makes him ideally suited to be a valuable 6th lineman. Fifth round: Tytus Howard, Alabama State The big man from the small college more than held his own during Senior Bowl week. A converted tight end who played right tackle for the FCS-level Hornets, Howard needs polish on his technique and footwork but has really nice upside. Sixth round: Chuma Edoga, USC Edoga won the award for the best practice player at the Senior Bowl. His game blossomed in his final year with the Trojans, showing better trust in his technique and ability to sustain blocks. The sixth round might be too late to grab Edoga now, but back in September this would have been too optimistic. Seventh Round: Mitch Hyatt, Clemson No Tigers player has ever been on the field for more plays than Hyatt, and he was a consistent performer for some great Clemson offenses. A lack of athletic upside and base strength limits his draft value, but the Browns would know exactly what they’re getting in Hyatt.
