[Official] Texans Draft Day

What sites are you looking at? The only pick I've seen that has somewhat negative reports is Earl Mitchell, and even most of those (not all) had other complimentary things to say about him. That's not to say I haven't seen some criticisms of Jackson and Tate, but all reports I've seen were clearly favorable in nature.

 

Hes clearly making it up

 

I had a power outage and had to follow the draft on my phone through espn and their "expert" in the chat was downing on Faneca hard. Something to the effect of: "Faneca is NOT a good run blocker anymore...it is a JOKE that he is still being selected for Pro Bowls."



Yeah, he's not getting any younger and had some difficulties last year but, um...I'm pretty sure Alan had at least SOMETHING to do with the Jets leading the league in rushing last season. On top of that, he's supposedly a big locker room presence and leader...and one helluva fine human being to boot.

 

Link or shut yo mouth.

 

cool.....how many of those sites were drafting in the nfl draft?

Kam Chancellor sounds like Taylor Mays without the hype. Well and the flashy 40.

 

The 5th round pick is another team's pick that the Chiefs got from the Ravens I believe. Number 15 I believe.

 

Anybody think the Texans will use one of their 4th's on a backup QB?

I'm thinking the following picks for the Texans with their first 4th -

Selvish Capers (OT) - move him to guard.
Akwasi Owusu-Ansah (CB) - move him to safety
Griffen, Everson DE - not really a need this late, but BPA.

**edit
Okay, final prediction it's going to be Selvish Capers (OT) with the Texans first 4th. He's got the ability to provide depth at both OT and OG.

 

i think somewhere in the 4th they take a safety.

 

I think it's time to go ahead and jump on Bruce Campbell. Make him a RT and move Winston to G.

 

He's very raw, so he would be a developmental guy which is fine but Winston stays at tackle for now.

 

Campbell, Cox or Griffin

 

Even the commissioner looks exhausted by this long three day draft.

 

Griffen's gone, i don't like the questions about his work ethic. If you are not going to work hard in college when you have a shot at making the NFL...hard to expect that you will become a hard worker when you get paid for it.

 

Mostly those sites linked through Yahoo Sports. Go to Yahoo Sports and click NFL and then Draft. Scroll down to the Texan's pick, read the blip, then click on the draftee's name for full scouting reports.

Overview

Sharpton had his most productive season as a collegiate athlete leading the Hurricanes with 106 tackles and 8.5 tackles for loss. Sharpton has had some durability problems in the past but was able to stay on the field for 12 games in 2009. Sharpton is a short well built player with good athleticism. He doesn’t have great range in pursuit or speed to the sideline but is very effective between the hashes. Sharpton is also limited in pure man coverage’s but could be effective in combination zones schemes. His size is a concern at the next level taking on larger blockers and will likely need to be covered up most of the time. He should give valuable depth to the position and contribute on special teams.

interesting pick.. Depth or do they think they can upgrade over Diles...
