    He likes JD Clowney, and they waited for a QB because they were looking for fit above all.

    Shane Skov is still on the board. Would be awesome to have him learn from Cush

    BOB says it will be an open competition in camp for the QB spot.

    If he falls all the way to 6.1 it will be a HUGE steal.

    Anyone know why Christian Jones has slipped so far? Zierlein and John Harris kept saying he would be a fantastic fit with us.

    He basically answered every question the same, "well Suzy we tried to go out and do what was best for the Houston Texans and i feel like we did that."

    Said Savage's best attribute is he is a "good guy", and that they picked Clowney because they felt he could be an impact player right away.

    Him or Christian Jones would be a hell of a steal at this point

    BOB strikes me as overwhelmed, hopefully I'm wrong.

    BOB clearly wants to go the Seahawks/Ravens model.

    Build the team first and plug in a good QB. I don't disagree with it.

    it's a very smart strategy IMO. Bulk up the O and D lines, ensure you have plenty of targets, then try to slot in a QB who will already be set up to have success.

    what I've learned from this draft: every team wants "tough, physical football players who make plays"

    Katherine Webb hitched her wagon to the wrong QB

    More like she weighed his wagon down. That reality TV show did not help.

    Skov would be really good Cushing insurance.
