    If we go qb I want Malik Willis so far…would have been Howell until The other day (this all could change weekly)

    I have been turned off completely on rattler since before the season started

    Any specific reason on Rattler?

    Willis has the best athletic profile for sure, arm and elite mobility. Just don’t like the stature

    Twitter got me off of him, I know it’s only highlights, but dude just seems so inconsistent…he’s as likely to make a bad decision as a good one, and his bad decisions sometimes turn out highlights because he has more talent around him than most others

    I’m not a great judge of talent, though….I mean that almost describes watson with d-hop and he was really good (him being a douche not included)

    Who would of thought this conversation would be happening again so soon at this point we need to wait and see what we get for Deshaun that will indicate if we can trade up possibly for a QB after going DE

    I also think it's awesome that the Texans should have the #1 overall pick for the 4th draft in 20 years and there hasn't been a consensus #1 overall QB in any of them.

    Him and Howell are very similar imo. Both QB with arm talent and decent mobility but not elite athleticism or speed.
    Which I’m fine with, Mahomes, Rodgers and Watson don’t have elite speed. But mobile enough to be threats.
    My issue is their size, specially Rattler. Howell is at least thick, still don’t like it.

    My wishful thinking is Shough or Ridder show some more this season.

    Watson is the one who doesn't want to play.

    So why are they paying him? If he wants to sit out the season, then let him sit out.

    Took years for us 2 find Watson, let's hope it will be a lot faster this time around.

    Best case scenario is for the Texans to get the #1 pick, draft Willis, then trade Watson to a NFC Team and draft Thibodeaux from Oregon.

    Bring in Cam to start next yr and let Willis learn for a yr

    Pump the brakes a bit. Willis is far from a number 1 pick or the best QB right now.
    And Cam is washed.

    That in no way is the best case scenario

    Now that the starting QB has been named I really miss having a QB.

    I just hope they don’t reach and draft a QB number 1 overall out of desperation. That’s a sure way to stay bad even longer.

    Corral looked the best of all of the QB's this weekend.

    He had Strong ranked 1st this offseason and he didn't look bad against Cal.

    Really like Strong's WR Doubs.
