I didn't realize Barron was that fast as well. Aflred Collins apparently did some impressive things too.
This is the thing I live by on OL (+ arm length + explosive #'s [vertical, 10 yard split]) Texans had one of those (Quessenberry) F&*# Cancer Gaines was injured most of his rookie year IIRC
Raiders are making Michael Mayer available for trade after Bowers pick left him no room. We need weapons and a TE on a rookie deal is worth throwing a later round pick at to see what they say. If we can get away with a non-crazy pick for that, we free up more options early to go OL/DL/WR without also having a question/hope/prayer there for Schulz to figure things out or hopes Stover pans out.

I don't know about Booker in the first round. He's by far one of the strongest offensive lineman in the draft. But what I saw on film and now the Combine confirmed his agility and his speed to move off the ball or pull is not that great. In the first round I prefer Membou, Jackson or Zabel.
Would you give up pick 4-115? Picking Jackson at 1-26 and trading 4-115 for Mayer would solve a lot of the OL issues.
I would prefer to use the 4th round pick on a TE or earlier and have them on a rookie contract for 4 years. The Texans don't have much cap space and Dalton Schultz is a $14 million cap hit this year.
