    You may have heard that prospects are getting to choose their 'walk out' song {when they are selected}.

    Well....

    Worse case scenario: They hold the draft up here at Jerry World.

    Except that Clowney would be playing OLB.

    Sure, he might slide down to DE in Nickel or Dime, but some games you spend 80-90% in Base D.

    Like the bridgewater song choice .. I think we need to find a way to get him . He will be the best quarterback from this draft .

    The ONE question on EVERYONE'S mind:

    Although standard SOP, ESPN wouldn't dare go to commercial when the Texans draft #1 tonight... would they?

    Heh, what decade do you think it is? They spend 60-70 % of the time in sub packages.

    I'm sorry but if the texans don't take a qb in the first round they are just gutten for punishment. While it might be the thing most texan fans want, at some point you've got to draw a line in the sand and live with the results.

    Thanks for your input.

    Not sure why they have to draw a line in the sand if they feel these QB's are no good.... I'd rather the player they select at #1 is the best player they feel that can contribute at the NFL level and help them win.

    Reaching for a QB is dumb on any level. Line in sand drawn.
