    Texans hit RB gold in the 4th round like the Bucs did with Bucky Irving two years ago.

    As much as I want to hate on Caserio for his mishandling of the offensive line, I'll echo something I've said before.

    He is excellent at identifying mid round talent. He's not afraid to take criticism for going up and getting a guy he believes in, either.

    That's the sign of a good GM and that's how good football teams sustain success.

    Woody Marks is one of those picks. Remember how much everyone hated this trade up??

    Mixon who?
    J/k would still like Mixon back. Where is he hiding, Nebraska?

    What was wrong with him again? Ankle or something?

    I don't think it was ever said. Just foot injury which had the web Md crowd saying it could be the infamous harlot, Lisfranc.

    I feel like that high ankle sprain he got from that bs hip drop tackle never fully healed and he's got some persistent problems from that.

    Post game int line that stood out:

    "We're still learning the offense. I have Chubb to learn from. It was good seeing everyone smile today instead of being down."

    Still learning the offense. Muddaf'ers, it's been 7 months.

    Yeah I can see how that feels like a lot to give up but it is worth it for a #1 RB that can pass protect.

    Houston sent No. 179 and a 2026 third rounder to Miami in exchange for No. 116 and No. 224 in 2025.

    Understandable, but they say good trades hurt. Hopefully this turns out to be a good trade.

    Is that bad?

    [given where they assumed that 3rd would be after this season]

    KYONTE HAMILTON was the other player picked (IR).

    If he becomes something, then it was fine. It is fine if Marks becomes RB1.

    THANK YOU FOR THE BOLDINGS. IT MAKES EVERYTHING MAKE SO MUCH MORE SENSE.

    Why do you assume he would have been picked in that spot?

    Not understanding? They made the trade during the draft to get Marks. Hamilton was the player they used the 7th rounder on. He was hurt during camp.

    Oh I understand. So they traded up for Marks. Whatever, having Marks is good I think.

    Why do you assume the players they "could have drafted instead" would have been available to draft?

    Woody looked great......................granted, this Titans team is BAD..................they were straight ass for 4 quarters, Cam Ward called everyone out including himself which I found genuine. The whole Mixon thing is just odd, just tell us if he is out for the year, there hasn't even been a sighting from him at camp or around the team which I find incredibly odd, if he`s hurt wouldn't he need treatment, if he is hurt and out for the year just tell us, I hate all the secrecy, you can protect the player, we dont need to know the details but at least say something
