Thanks for a whole bunch of nothing Rick. What was the point in that?

 

Lol. He spoke for 20 min and said a bunch blah blah that even my wife already knew. I did like that he wants to push the draft back into April.

 

It literally did nothing except show that he knows who he wants but won't show his cards because the team wants to trade.

 

he probably got a new suit.... dude's worthless.

 

Hey man, it was a nice suit though!

 

Do you think the trade would happen on Draft day? dont this Top pick trades get done before the draft? I mean seriously are they going to wait until there on the clock to make the trade Why? Everyone and their momma know that the top pick is Clownley, so if a team wants Clownley why not trade now/soon instead of waiting until they are on the clock?

 

You would think that a trade for such a high would happen before the draft as we saw for RGIII, but there have been other draft day deals before. It's all dependent on what teams are offering now and what they will offer under the stress of not getting their man.

 

well true, but it can also mean they could downgrade there package and force
Houston to choose Clownley (which it looks like they rather trade down) will see what happens.. Hope some news breaks soon

I personally would like a trade down to Falcons (take Manziel/Mack) than draft 2 studs with pick 33 and falcons 2nd round pick- or better yet trade 33 for some more picks..

 

Haters gotta hate. It is funny though that given the math involved we know that some of those brilliant guys voted that Clowney was the "most overrated" AND voted that they'd take him first overall....Probably those who scored 20 or lower on their Wonderlic....

 

To be fair I want the Texans to take Clowney at #1 and I find him to be a little overrated. I think he's a great talent but I find greatest defensive talent of past 10 years to be a little overrating.

 

Hell, Andrew Luck was probably overrated going into the draft. Hard not to be when the sports media digs in and starts hyping whatever it can dig its claws into.

 

Hard to take this seriously when it doesn't even have the player weight correct. Teddy B weighed in at 208, not 210. If something that simple and concrete is wrong, it really makes the more subjective scores questionable.

 

I favor Mack, Barr, Bridgewater, and Manziel. Not really comfortable with Clowney.

But I don't care who they select. I'm following players wherever they go, except Dallas. I just hope the Texans don't muck up the opportunity.

 

Can someone with ESPN insider post the mock draft of the 1st 3 rounds by McShay and Kiper? reps of course.
