    What makes you think he wasn't the best player available on the Texans draft board?

    Don't expect the draft boards of individual teams to line up with whatever mock drafts and rankings you've been looking at.

    LOL.

    That's my favorite MMA substory. Shane Carwin, the height cutter. :)

    Trade a 5th to get a 3rd only to draft a 5th (just kidding, I don't know anything about Earl Mitchell)

    Need to get the best safety available and a mauling guard/center!!

    We have to run the ball this year....no excuses!! or 8-8 punches us in the gut again!

    I doubt that
    this is easily a 10 win team
    should get 11~12 IMO

    Thanks for the link. Looks like a work in progress but adds depth, which is what we need on the D-Line.

    Damn, that kid ran a pretty good 40 as well.

    Oh, and I am now a Browns fan! :grin:

    Eh, we pick again at 92 I think. We'll still get a safety then. Maybe Rolle, who in his spare time can substitute for the team doctor.

    Something everybody said about the browns 2 years ago.

    Don't take anything for granted. I will be heartbroken if we don't make the playoffs.

    Have you seen the NFC teams we play plus our own conference schedule? 10 win team "easily" is not even what I'm thinking. If we do hit that mark, I'd be overly ecstatic.
