I would've suspected Goodwin will be drafted in the same round T. Holliday was taken, round 6. He's pretty similar to Holliday, but since he had some big returns late last season and in the playoffs, someone might take a flier on him in rounds 4-5.

Personally I'd take your 2nd round pick (OT Watson) in the first and take advantage of the receiver depth in this Draft and wait until until the second or even the third round to draft my receiver, before I'd use my 27th on Hunter.
I would be thrilled if the Texans selected any of the WR's you mentioned. One I hope we take in rounds 2-4 is D. Rogers, I think AJ could really help bring out the best in this kid. The one I'm hopping we don't draft early is Patton, at least in the first couple rounds.

As far as OT's go, a 1st or 2nd is too rich for Watson, IMO. He's still pretty raw in my eyes for rounds one and two. There's much better value in selecting Vinston Painter or Jordan Mills in rounds 4 and 5 respectively.
