There goes the Tennessee State big back. We better not be hurting for a back next season.

I wonder how much money I could have won betting that Javarris would get drafted BEFORE Rashad Jennings.

How about Gartrell Johnson getting picked before Jennings? Draft Tek didn't have him getting drafted at all.

Looking back at our "Visits" thread. I see Barwin and Casey listed. But the interesting thing was the only back listed (rumored at the combine a while back) was Andre Brown. Are they serious about getting a back or was that misdirection?

RBs to watch for....

Brandon Mason - Stony Brook
Herb Donaldson - Western Illinois
Rodney Ferguson - New Mexico
Tyler Roehl - North Dakota State
Kyle Bell - Colorado State
Josh Vaughan - Richmond
PJ Hill - Wisconsin
Arian Foster - Tennesee

I think Kubiak might get a couple of these as UDFAs.

Another DB. I hope younger Gibbs can do something with them, but while I know it's a 7th rounder, I am not impressed.

Why not C.J. Spillman?

Rashad Jennings must of really messed up, lot of teams had him pretty high on their board. Hope he gets a chance as UDFA I think.

For the average fan such as myself who really doesn't follow college football or player scouting all that much, I have to say (IMHO) that that was one bizzare second day for the Texans. I guess they have a plan, but I sure as hell I can't see what it is yet. Lots of question marks with where those players fit into the scheme and our long-term plans. And in the short-term, how they improve us for '10. I guess it all hinges upon Cushing and Barwin, though.
