    That's fair. They're both risky players. I'm rooting for Gregory as much as I hate the Cowboys.

    It seems everyone on here, texanstalk, and battleredblog is always picking on LZ, but in truth we should feel lucky to have someone with actual scouting acumen and front office insight doing radio in our city. Impartial information on the Texans comes out of one source in the media, and everyone else piggybacks on what he says. If Lance doesn't leak info for the rest of Houston radio/TV/print, then it's probably going to have to be broken first by national sources instead. The Texans front office definitely doesn't take McLain seriously.

    I do trust folks like John Harris on the mothership and Brett Kollman on battleredblog for their ability to break down tape, but Comrade Harris is handcuffed by his affiliation to the Texans, and Kollman doesn't have any connections like Lance does to corroborate his takes with those of other pro scouts.

    Brown, Sua'filo, Jones, Brooks, Newton

    Clabo, Adams, Feiler, Ferentz, Quess, White, Whitzmann, Yeatman

    8 tackles, 5 interior oline. And some of those tackles play guard/center.

    It's not as glaring as some say. Late RD depth could be added, probably not something in the 3rd. I'd look to the 5th with both of those picks, if one isn't traded.

    In some way I am too, despite my hatred for the Cowboys. I also was pulling for Dez Bryant after the whole crackwhore mom stuff started circulating.

    I wouldn't bet on him rising above it all, but it would be a feel good story if he pulls it off.

    LZ has earned a lot of it by going over the top when it comes to some of his draft crushes. The insanity over the Ravens trading up in front of the Texans to pick future HOFer Arthur Brown is reason to pick on him a bit IMO. When you are super arrogant about guys that are total scrubs, you catch flak for it.

    That said, he is knowledgeable especially when it comes to linemen.
