And every OT this side of Ferguson falls...

...to the Texans in the second! With the way this draft is going, they could probably get another great OL and a great DB (it's starting to look more and more like Darnell Bing will fall). Hell, Jimmy Williams hasn't even been taken yet.

The 'Fins got a safety I liked and the Texans are going to get a great pick at the top of the second. I'm excited about this draft.

And they take an OLB!!! :mad:

Don't ask me. I'm lost. Maybe they're holding out until their two picks at the top of the third, but I didn't think OLB was one of their great needs, and DeMeco seemed like nothing more than a decent value

Looks like they're trying to shore up their defense (which is great and all) but they have other needs. Maybe we'll get lucky again and either Jonathan Scott or Eric Winston will fall to the third.

PS: If they pick up an ILB in the third, I'll be mad. Ahmad Brooks is available in the supplemental draft and they could probably get a first-round talent for a third-rounder next year. Brooks is a little more than 6'3," weighs in a 259 lbs, and runs in the 4.5's.

who is running the Texans draft room? These are Circus picks.

[Old Tiger]

They're having a good draft if you think about it.

[injuredinmelee]

they havent addressed their need at OL!!! Thats the reason everyone gives for Carrs ineptitude.

[Pmoney]

the TEXANS finally got smart and took Eric Winston

[Old Tiger]

Know they just took what was left. They were smart by Taking the OLB from Bama and the DE from NC State.


They just capatilized on this Guard and Tackles that dropped.


Everyone wrote them off but didn't realize their 3rd round picks.

This might turn out to be a better draft for Houston than people think.

I like the draft again. I haven't actually seen much of Charles Spencer, but everyone else seems to be high on him. The LT I was highest on this side of Ferguson was actually Winston, and not Winston Justice. Came into college as a TE, got moved to OT, slipped in the draft because of an injury. Agile, strong, has the chance to be the best OL drafted this year.

Listening to the Ticket's coverage of the NFL Draft (which by the way is the best coverage going on the radio....they said Justice had slipped due to charecter issues (pulling a gun on someone...it was a toy gun but he did get arrested for that) along with work ethic things as well....
