not worried about DT Amobi is gonna have a big year I think big Frank Okam will be in the rotation Smith will be moved inside on passing downs As far as a RB, I think the article on chron.com said we looked at 2 in the 2nd but they were gone
Wow another speedy. I'm starting to like him more and more after reading scouting reports. Starting to sound like a pretty decent pick.
Here's one from National Football Post. Kinda worrisome that while he has great speed he has poor footwork. But where he was picked I suspect any propsect will have question marks... guess we will see soon enough. The Good: An electric corner with great burst and deep speed down the field. Clocked in with a time of 4.33 at his pro day and has the ability to consistently make up for a false step. Plays with natural flexibility and does a nice job exploding out of his breaks toward the football. The Bad: Possesses only decent footwork and at times his feet move faster then his body. Is undersized and will struggle being physical in the NFL. Had a lot of talent around him (CB Sean Smith) and was not always asked to cover the opposing teams top WR.
Lots of rated pretty high amongst the other RBs. Houston's own, Lance Zierlein had him as his fifth best RB and slotted in the 2nd or 3rd round and in the top 60 overall!
Rashad Jennings is the same size and the same speed as Beanie Wells. Ian Johnson, Jeremiah Johnson, Korey Sheets, and PJ Hill are all still available as well.
Green Bay chose an OLB and San Francisco already picked Glen Coffee and they have Fred Gore Buffalo has Marshawn Lynch and Dominic Rhodes and Fred Jackson Washington has Clinton Portis Philadelphia has Brian Westrbrook and chose Lesean McCoy Then Houston is up and they should take Rashad Jennings
Prediction is almost always different that fruition. He might be a great back but I think the league would know more than the online "bloggers". Z is a good read but he isn't a coach in the league.
If we dont pick a running back we should pick a DT either Ricky Jean Francois from LSU or Clinton McDonald from Memphis
I think Gartrell Johnson was the man the Texans were hoping would fall, but he went pretty early to the Chargers (End of 4th round I think)
that's what we have been thinking for a long time...but the Texans have passed up Jennings already, I wouldn't be surprised if they did it again.
Colts just traded up in front of us... I think they may be targeting Rashad Jennings even though they got Donald Brown
