Well Tate was my 2nd choice, so I'm happier now. Plus, we didn't give up the 3rd from Minny to move back up.

Effectively, the Texans gave up a 5th round pick and acquired a 3rd round pick, while getting the running back they wanted. Very, very nice.

I agree. If Tate was their guy, it was a good move. And obviously somebody else was looking there too because the Browns just traded up for Hardesty, so they probably wanted Tate and figured they had to snatch Hardesty before he went off the board too.

Lance Z was saying Hardesty was falling down boards because of injuries, so Ben Tate was THE running back in this draft in terms of value.

We also got another 3rd round pick

OG John Jerry
FS Brandon Ghee
OG Jon Asamoah
DT Geno Atkins
FS Morgan Burnett
CB Akwasi Owusu-Ansah
DE Daniel Te'o-Nesheim

Great move, again.

Ben Tate>Ryan Mathews IMO.

I love the fact we got another 3rd.

I liked the idea of getting Golden Tate as our #2 also.

A FS like Morgan Burnett, Major Wright, or Reshad Jones.

A LB like J. Chaney, N. Bowman, or Dekoda Watson.

or DT maybe Cam Thomas, or Author Jones.
Possibly Jeff Owens.


Or maybe a Golden Tate if he falls....

I remember Ben Tate for getting his helmet knocked off when he got crushed by Eric Berry LoL.... I love the pick. We need a solid one-two punch at RB.
