    The most amazing thing about that video/conversation is that Murr from Impractical Jokers somehow found his way into Arizona’s draft war room.

    All I know is I'm not doubting DeMeco Ryans with the reputation he has. There's a world where he might be one of the best defensive minds in all of football but we just don't know it yet.

    You have to take coach at his word and the players at their word. All this complaining about whether the Texans gave up too much for Willy could literally disappear a few weeks into the regular season.

    Oh and it's going to be REAL easy to pad them stats against this weak a** division.

    I said this before the draft, Will Anderson reminds me of Von Miller. I believe he's going to be that special.

    I'm just glad the Texans didn't do their usual and drafted Tyree Wilson.

    Makes me wonder if Demeco's comments were targeted a bit towards Wilson in approval of Anderson.

    Anderson was labeled the consistent producer in college which may seem boring to some.

    Wilson by every analyst was labeled the flashier defensive player.

    Demeco is all about his Bama boys and very passionate.

    Um, Texans don’t have a “usual”. Their firat round picks have been good (for the most part.

    Will Anderson is who I wanted at #1 overall. We paid through our noses, so he'd better be a dominant force!

    It seems like there are one of these combine warriors every year who fly up in the draft and get drafted higher than their production on the field was in college.

    Will Anderson produced at a high level for a great program in big games. I will take a guy like that every day of the week.
