[Official] Texans Draft Day Thread

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...nothing-about-leaked-manziel-scouting-report/

Belichick claims to know nothing about leaked Manziel scouting report

 

This may be the Longhorn homer in me but what about Jeffcoat with our fourth rd compensatory pick?

 

Espn is in business for themselves. It's a self given BJ.

 

I love our draft so far.

Go Texans!

 

So much of Logan Thomas.

 

Logan Thomas gone to Arizona

 

Dang!!!! Thomas is gone.

 

I am Horn too, but usually you want taller DEs in the 3-4
He is better suited for the 4-3
He might have a shot at OLB but we already took one

 

Ugh:

Matt Williamson
No QB in this class is close to Thomas' skill set

Matt Williamson
Greg Cosell compares Thomas very much to Cam Newton as same point of college career...that kind of ability

 

Well that fking blows.

 

The other rebuilding project is Savage. I don't want to see it, but if he's there I bet he's the Texans' pick.

 

Agree

We arguably took the

Best player overall
Best OG (or 2nd best at worst)
Best blocking TE
Best NT for the 3-4 (or 2nd best at worst)

Clearly we haz needs (QB for example), but they have made the most of the spots we had


Here is the way I look at it ....
With those first two picks, they actually filled 4 positions

Clowney at OLB allows Reed to move to ILB effectively filling 2 LB spots

The Samoan -X- at LG allows Quessenberry move to RT effectively filling 2 OL spots

I see it as efficient, if not clever

Alot of people are focused on the QB issue and not seeing the big picture

 

Thomas is off the board. Pack it in and wait for Winston. FitzgPatrick will be serviceable for the season

 

Good thing Keenum will get another shot if it's a fair and open practice.

 

*competition

not practice.

 

With Logam Thomas off the board, looks like Savage or Murray


HOU is at the bottom of the scroll now, we are getting closer

 

I could absolutely live with Aaron Murray at 4.35

New Orleans is one to watch for Murray. They were rumored to be after him.

 

Wonder if Mettenberger will go undrafted. I'd bring him to camp
