5) Anderson

plus, we have quasi-WRs in Daniels and Casey.

There's no room for another receiver so you better be drafting a WR very late or as a UDFA. Otherwise, it's a wasted pick.

We were discussing that since we have Walter re-signed, the draft pick that would have been used to replace him can now be used on a different position. My point was that we may have been better off signing a FA at another position that is a "hole" or a "need" and simply drafting a WR in the late rounds.

I wonder how hard it would be to get a FS like Brodney Pool?

The Texans value Walter more than the participants in this thread do because the Texans consider Walter by far the team's best blocker at the position.

They could also be reading Jacoby's tweets this offseason too.
