    That is going to really free up one of our trio of young guys. they have to account for three great defensive players.

    Great pick...I would have thought Levi Brown would be nice, but from what I heard Okoye is a top 5 player talent-wise in the draft...We made a good pick. nice...

    Rotation of Babin and Weaver I think. We've got enough guys to stay fresh and keep high pressure on the QB at all times. In a 4-3, you gotta have at least 6 quality guys up front. I think our defensive line is set for quite a few years. Now we can focus on the WR, OL, and defensive backfield.

    Is he really 19?

    Improving the defense is never a bad way to go.

    Good pick. They can't double team everyone.

    I like Okoye, but it seems like we could have traded for more picks. We need a WR, OT, S, and a CB in a bad way.

    I'm honestly shocked it wasn't Hall.

    This defense is going to be SICK over the next decade...

    Gee, ESPN is bashing the Texans right now. In other news, the sky is blue.

    Let's hope that after 4 years of using 1st round picks on D-lineman that we can get some type of pass rush.
