    Using this 7 round mock, you can pick the Texan's pick or any below it, but you can't take a pick above it:

    I might hold off on Jenkins, and try to grab Quick with the 3rd pick. Not sure though we REALLY need a WR, and it'd be risky to keep putting it off.

    Could live with this.

    Disappointed to see Cousins go. :(

    If our draft could go like yours but Cousins fall to the 4th rd pick we have I would be ecstatic. (Though I doubt the Texans would take him.)

    I think Irvin will gone before this mock, with him there there is no imperative to get a pass rusher @ 1 or 2 ..... sorta cheating.

    To me, from what I have seen in the last 10 years of drafts, Hill is a huge bust risk.

    Was thinking the same thing. If you could guarantee me that we are getting Irvin in the 3rd it makes the draft easy.

    Texans will trade their 1st to Rams for their two second rounders.
    33. Best OLB on board (Perry, Merciless ,Curry,Irvin)
    39. Best blocking WR (Randle, Sanu, Hill i think he drops)
    58.Jeff Allen
    76.George Iloka
    99.Adrien Robinson....etc
    Rounds 2-4 only after that its a crap shoot

    Greg Childs is an interesting choice.

    He's like the Arian Foster of wide receivers.

    Exceptionally talented, but had a crappy end to his college career that tanked his draft stock.

    Like Arian, he got sidelined with a knee injury and is now recovered.

    The Texans will have to include a 4th to make the trade appealing to St. Louis. I've actually mocked the Texans doing that trade.

    Cody won't be drafted. He is a FA candidate

    Agreed. In the first round he's too much of a risk, but I would be okay with trading down and getting him.

    Not playing by the rules, but here's what I think/hope going by positions only...

    2*: OLB/DE (*trading into 2nd rd to pick up extra 3 or 4)
    2: T
    3: WR
    3/4*: G
    4: WR
    4: QB
    5: TE
    6: DT
    7: K
