I'd like to see the Texans to stick and pick the best player available that's not a WR or QB in the 1st round. Nick likes to move around and we all know the Texans aren't picking at 28. I'd kind of expect the Texans to trade up and select either Francis Mauigoa or Emmanuel Pregnon. The top 2 offensive lineman in the draft that fit their system. There are some really good defensive line players in this year's draft that I'd expect the Texans would be tempted to select.
If I had to guess I would guess that we'll go DT at 28, although you might be right about us trading down.
Iheanachor, Bud Clark, Rodriguez and we know they will draft Montgomery from John Carroll University.
I was gonna post something about Iheanchor but couldn't remember how to spell his name. He's very interesting, and so are the other 2 guys. "Many people are saying" that's it's a very defense-heavy draft, unfortunately, but there's lots of 2-5rd LBs and DBs and IDL...which the Texans do need. Mix in a couple of OL with the top-ish picks and a TE+RB somewhere and I'll be a happy dude. No idea how FA will shake out for the team, so this could of course all change.
Iheanachor Keylan Rutedge Mike Washington Sam Roush Lee Hunter Caleb Banks Montgomery is from Spring TX, has made it through a lot of adversity and if he's there in the late 4th/early 5th he would be a great pick. He's a dynamic KR/PR and has potential to become a weapons as a WR. Regardless of whether the guy is from John Carroll or not he would be a great pick.
1. Iheanachor OT Ariz St. 2. Hunter DT Texas Tech 2. Gennings Dunker OG Iowa 3. Mike Washington RB Arkansas 4. Chandler Rivers CB Duke 4. Sam Roush TE USC 6. Barion Brown WR LSU 7. Jayden Ott RB OU
This would be a fun draft for me Rd1 – Pick 19: TE Kenyon Sadiq (Oregon) Rd2 – Pick 38: OT Gennings Dunker (Iowa) Rd2 – Pick 59: RB Jadarian Price (Notre Dame) Rd3 – Pick 69: LB Jake Golday (Cincinnati) Rd3 – Pick 98: IOL Keylan Rutledge (Georgia Tech) Rd4 – Pick 128: DL Zane Durant (Penn State) Trades • With Carolina Panthers: Texans receive: Rd1 #19 Panthers receive: Rd1 #28, 2027 Rd2 • With Philadelphia Eagles: Texans receive: Rd3 #98 Eagles receive: Rd4 #106, Rd5 #165
I feel pretty good about this draft. I think we're going to be much more talented as a team and especially the OL after the draft.
