And we've also gotta have some questions about the other 3rd round pick, because Brooks was very disappointing Saturday. And how often do the Texans
go as high as a 3rd round pick for an interior OLineman ? It would seem they'd use a 3rd round pick on somebody who was more of a ZB type with more
impressive competition that what they see at Miami of Ohio ?
Antoine Caldwell was a third rounder in 2009. As far as the competition that Brooks faced in college, the MAC isn't the SEC but it is a Division I-A (or FBS or whatever they call it now) conference and its members are attractive nonconference opponents for teams from the major conferences. Out of curiousity, I checked Miami of Ohio's schedule for the last four years and they played Florida, Boise State, Michigan, Missouri (twice), Cincinnati (four times), Northwestern, and Vanderbilt. He didn't go against future NFL players every week, but I'm sure he saw some.
