    After Burden’s sophomore year scouts had him as a top 10 prospect

    Idk I'd be fine moving back from 34 again if we can snag another 3rd this year or next

    I think that's why the Texans HAVE to go o-line with the first pick tonight. Too much space in between our first pick and second to chance getting a starter as opposed to a project.

    I feel we need a better pick than 58 if we want a WR and OL of our choice

    There is no Olinemen rated higher than the best play at 34. You don’t reach because of need. Take the best player.

    Blake Fisher was horrific last season. He needs to improve by a staggering margin to be a dependable starter at tackle. If he can't play tackle then maybe he can play guard. Right now he looks like a bust.

    Who do you want them to get at 34?

    Exactly. I guess I prefer Aireontae Ersery so that, hopefully, he can take over as starter at LT next season. Cam Robinson will be a FA after this season.

    I believe we will give serious consideration of Henderson, Taylor and Harris at 34. But would consider offers to move down as far as mid 40s.

    How do you have us picking at 47? Did I miss a trade? I thought we are at 34 and 58 in Round 2. Anyway, I'm skeptical that Ersery will be available at 58 and Tate Ratledge will be long gone at 115. Ratledge is going in the 2nd round.

    I think it's a balancing act. Do we take a CB to sit the bench or do we get Aireontae Ersery or Tate Ratledge who are both likely longterm NFL starters at positions of desperate need?
