I really want a TE like Warren who can do it all, but I would kill for a Center or LG, not in the 1st round but definitely immediately after the 1st......maybe trade up? The O Line MUST be addressed and give me one good pass rusher and depth in the secondary, the draft is such a fun time and we didn't do squat this past year............................PS, Cam Robinson looked like dog do do for the Browns, we paid him how much to go away For the love of GOD Nick, have someone else evaluate the O Line prospects, your awesome everywhere else, but you suck at O Lineman
A reminder of how poorly we’ve drafted the TE position over the years : 2025 - Luke Lachey (7th round) 2024 - Cade Stover (4th round) 2022 - Teagan Quitoriano (5th round) 2021 - Brevin Jordan (5th round) 2019 - Kahale Warring (3rd round) 2018 - Jordan Akins (3rd round) 2014 - CJ Fiedorowicz (3rd round) 2013 - Ryan Griffin (6th round) 2010 - Garrett Graham (4th round) 2009 - Anthony Hill (4th round), James Casey (5th round) 2006 - Owen Daniels (4th round) 2003 - Bennie Joppru (2nd round)
Nick did seem to get Ersery/Andrews and Ingram right last offseason and with Caserio/Caley/Popovich all being well versed in the offense I look for this trend to continue.
Really can only judge based on Caserio's tenure, and these are all later round picks so far. Never heard of Quitoriano but Jordan was about what you'd expect out of a 5th round pick and jury is still out on Stover.
Draft Sadiq then when Stover makes it back the weakness has been turned into a strength. Question who would y'all rather see drafted? Sadiq and Moss or Love and Oscar Delp?
If Sadiq isn't around for us in RD1 or we decide to go OL, DT or LB, this is a guy I like in RD2... Listen to Ran Carthon's take. He transferred to Ohio St from Purdue where he was their #1 weapon in the passing game-- FR/SOPH he caught 73/881/4. He started slow this year, but has started to catch more balls in last few games 15/175/1. I like that he's getting the opportunity to make the adjustment from being the guy at Purdue to competing for targets at OSU. Comes from football playing family grandfather, dad and brothers played or play college football. What do you think?
CJ Allen's wallet says "Bad M.F" on it I need to watch Arvell Reece again against a good team. I know who Anthony Hill is. I'd love a badass LB on this team, amongst other things.
Oscar Delp, TE/FB/HB/whatever for Georgia, just bulldozed a guy from the hashmark to the sideline, runner cut behind him, to seal the win. That was an impressive block.
Someone posted in another thread how the Texans have a guy at most all of the money spots (QB, LT, if Ersery pans out, Edge, CB , & WR). With 6 picks in the top 150 the Texans ought to be able to find bargain talent to fill in between all of those guys if they play their cards right. Im glad this thread got bumped.
If they choose wisely they can find good guards, rbs, DTs and linebackers in the 3rd and 4th that would be critical team friendly contracts over the next few seasons. Those efficiencies allow you to afford those big contracts that WAJ, Stroud and , God willing, Ersery eventually will require
Yeah, but that's not what I was thinking of. Good scouting and drafting isn't "bargain shopping" to me.
if BDN doesn't get esmaculated by Hannah, he will go TE/RB/Guard/LB and Safety with the first 5 picks. Just don't know in what order or who. Thought they would take 2 receivers last year, they did. Just not the guys I thought or wanted So many good TEs: Sadiq, Delp, Stowers and Houston's own. RBs: I only like 2 that are explosive and put effort in Pass pro, both go to ND. Linebackers: Whit Weeks or Sonny not from Bronx Tale. Guards: Lew, Loane or Bisontis They should be able to get everything they want without depending on other teams willing to deal.
