    The Draft Tracker on NFL.com reflects just that (their pick plus compensatory and then the Rams's two 6's)... so it looks like it.

    Wow four six rounders? TE, CB, QB & ILB just for good measure. Is Porter from A&M still on the board?

    The good news: Four 6th-round picks.
    The bad news :p: Mondek, Smith, Holliday, Barber, Studdard

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p><a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23Texans">#Texans</a> 6th-rd picks under Rick Smith: Nick Mondek, Shelley Smith, Trindon Holliday, Brice McCain, Dom Barber, Kasey Studdard <a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23NFLDraft">#NFLDraft</a></p>&mdash; Nick Scurfield (@NickScurfield) <a href="https://twitter.com/NickScurfield/status/328226734208073728">April 27, 2013</a></blockquote>

    Unless they think the guy can play, there's no need to draft an ILB at this point.

    Cushing/Reed/Dobbins/Sharpton is good enough.

    I'm hoping for high upside guys, but I'm realistic. It's the 6th round. I'm still hoping for QB Matt Scott. I don't see him drafted yet.

    The percentage of 6th round pics that make it in the nfl is fairly small. At least we hit on McCain.

    He hit on Holliday - unfortunately it was for Denver's benefit.

    A kicker in the 6th or 7th round?

    I read in NFL.com this guy Dustin Hopkins went to Clear Lake High School.
    and it seems he is great in kickoffs:

    Excellent strength and height on kickoffs, times well over 4.0 seconds consistently and gets the ball to the middle or front part of the end zone even with nice trajectory. A potential special teams weapon.

    I was kind of thinking the same. Matt Scott.

    Would we carry 2 kickers on the 52 man roster just as specialists?

    Our special team is so horrible that you might as well waste one more roster spot.


    Remember, Joe can't really control the kickers/punter, so might as well upgrade when we can.

    I thought Bullock was drafted for his strong leg and isn't that the reason we signed future HOF punter Shane Lechler?

    A little surprised he lasted this long.
