    Did Kubiak bring Alex Gibbs with him? I don't believe he did, don't assume improvement just because the Texans hired a Denver assistant. The offensive line's problem is that the players on it are very bad. That is a gigantic gaping hole in the team - and the Texans, once again, did not address it through a high pick in the draft.

    They passed up Reggie Bush, didn't even trade down to pick up extra players, just passed on him. Whether they did it because of signability issues or football issues it was still stupid to pass him up and not trade down.

    Suffice it to say that the Texans are run by the biggest bunch of dumbasses in the NFL.

    draft insiders had Demeco Ryan listed at #15 of the top 100 prospects.

    looks like a steal.

    Wait until you watch him play. You'll be underwhelmed. A good NFL blocker will consume him.

    He is neither strong enough or big enough to shed tackles nor is he fast enough to close in on plays. He is more smart than instinctive.

    Yes, he will start. Our linebackers will be Ryans, Cowart and Greenwood.

    If he does, don't expect too much. His upside is very limited.

    Babin and Peek are DEs, not LBs. Our LBs were probably the worst in the NFL last year, that is why we drafted one.

    I'll take the opinion of every one of the guys on ESPN over yours.

    There's your problem.

    Remember the Astros had no chance of winning against the Cardinals according to ESPN.

    ...

    USC was the greatest team in college history.

    ...

    I could go on and on.

    It would be nice if ESPN actually bothered to cover the draft after the first round.

    LOL, now it's "Let's bash Vince Young" time on ESPN.

    Merrill Hoge - in FULL HOT PINK STRIPEY GLORY shows one incomplete pass - you know why? Because he can't read defenses - EVER , obviously. The highest rated passer in College Football can't read a defense and only threw to open receivers.

    Now Carson Palmer is much better at throwing- AND running too, because he's a long strider. He's throwing the ball from 5 feet underground. Oh my god, he's terrible.

    Mark Schlereth weighs in - he's dumb, and the playbook is REALLY THICKISH.

    HOT PINK STRIPEY says he has to win a super bowl in 3 years or he's a failure.

    Vince might be cut before training camp.

    Sorry guys, sad but true.

    Not to sound completely gay here, but WTF was that thing he was wearing? Not only is he brainless, he's clearly color blind.

    Wow. I didn't hear them say that. Wow.

    Do they think before they speak? What team in the NFL would cut the #3 player in the draft?

    These guys are unvelievable.
